Here’s our own Ravi Nayer speaking about communities suffering as a direct result of Govt policies. ‘Where are infrastructure projects? Where is the vision for increasing manufacturing capability? And where are the much hyped Free Trade agreements?’ #LabourBusiness@RaviNayer1
Thank you so much Angela. You leave huge shoes to fill (in many styles 😉) and I will do my very best.
I look forward to working with you and the big contribution you’ll continue to make to our Party and politics.
Pleased to see more support from the Government for victims of the Windrush scandal.
Compensation and a change in culture are needed to make sure that Windrush victims get what they are long overdue.
Labour conference was an important time for conversation about this government's plan to renew our economy, rebuild our public services and invest in our communities.
Change cannot come fast enough.

I was briefed this afternoon by @WMPolice Chief Constable on their plans for far-right disorder in Birmingham.
Let me be clear. Violent thugs will face the full force of the law.
To residents, I ask: stay away from these events and let the police get on with their vital work.
Growth is no longer just Labour’s mission. It’s a national mission.

First week of Labour Government:
📍Reaffirming our commitment to Ukraine
📍Calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, return of the hostages and Britain’s support for a two state solution
📍Rwanda scheme scrapped
📍Lifting of the ban on onshore wind farms
📍Making water companies accountable to the public
📍The health secretary has actually engaged with the BMA like an adult (wild this is an achievement!)
📍Housing targets back
📍Border Security Taskforce established
📍Approving three solar farms
📍Reviewing the decision to reject two data centres
📍Abandoning the Cumbrian coal mine judicial review
I’ve probably missed out a lot more! This is what change looks like!
@Bill_Esterson@CllrMLock Well said, Bill. Losing Matty is tragic. To watch him persuade voters with his incredible energy and charm was something to behold. As a person, he was decent and endearing in equal measure. Such a loss to those he leaves behind, including his 🌹 friends. May he rest in peace.
@DanCardenMP@WHO “I've tried to create the space for expert voices to be heard & for evidence based policies to be implemented.” 🙌🏼 @DanCardenMP, you certainly have & we need more openness & leadership on conditions that so many of our family, friends & colleagues live with. #MentalHealthMatters
A satisfying haul of rubbish keeping #Birkdale Village and the station lovely for everyone outside at this ☀️time of year. Brilliant organisation by Charlotte Woods and local councillors @BirkdaleCivic. Email [email protected] to chip in on 🌻/ litter #southport
As we approach the 75th anniversary of HMT Empire Windrush docking in Tilbury, engagement on next steps for survivors of the HO’s hostile environment policy is now CRITICAL.👇🏼 links to our 27 recommendations and June talk https://t.co/bcudN5uTLJ @GlendaCaesar@JUSTICEhq

More than 1,300 people died while homeless last year.
This is happening on this Conservative Government’s watch.
Their track record on tackling all forms of homelessness is abysmal.
Our most vulnerable are being failed 👇

Passionate speeches from the #Windrush community. I was privileged to be asked for my thoughts on where we are & the decisions those affected must now make: incremental change to the comp scheme or starting again? What’s clear: We can’t continue to deny justice to our own people.
20 years ago my predecessor Michael Meacher, as then Environment Secretary took to the waters at Blackpool. Celebrating the improvement under a @uklabour government.
Today warnings issued for 83 beaches across the country. It’s a disgrace. 🌊#sewagescandal
Things must change.
