It was a pleasure to be there.
Our government should be ashamed of themselves for not supporting this important Bill. @lloyd_rm did the work the government should have done.
We have waited long enough for the legislation.
Today, we remember the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust, all the victims of Nazi persecution and the victims of more recent genocides in Cambodia, Rwanda, Bosnia and Darfur.
Let us learn the lessons from the past and work towards a better future.

👏 Today marks the start of a new era for public transport in the Liverpool City Region.
📆 We’re rolling back the clock on nearly four decades of failed deregulation.
🚌 And bringing our buses back where they belong - under public control.
Speaking at packed @socialistcam tonight, calling for the biggest campaign to kick out this vicious Tory government & for a @UKLabour Government that will deliver bold & brave policies & offer hope to the millions of people bearing the brunt of the past 13 years of Tory misrule.
🗣️ @MetroMayorSteve : "Today is the day that will change the face of public transport forever where we live."
👏 The Liverpool City Region has become only the second area outside of London to franchise its buses in nearly 40 years.
✅ History made.

Labour conference delegates: for housing to be debated at conference it has to be voted through the priorities ballot. Those with the highest six votes will get through. MAKE SURE YOU VOTE FOR HOUSING IN THE PRIORITIES BALLOT.
Such a pleasure to welcome @UKLabour delegates & visitors to #LabConf23 for another year. Enjoy the debates, the meetings with fellow members and trade unionists - and enjoy all my beautiful Labour city has to offer!
The Home Secretary’s recent comments regarding refugees were shameful and another example of government mainstreaming of far-right rhetoric.
We must push back on this poor attempt to create division.

Drilling the Rosebank oil field - the UK's largest untapped oil field - could produce around 200 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions, undermining the Govt's net zero pledge and make no difference to UK fuel bills. We need investment in renewables
If the government delays the petrol and diesel phase-out date to 2035 it will whack UP costs on British families. And here is the evidence from the Government's own advisors @theCCCuk 👇
The root causes of serious violence are complex & deep-seated. But evidence shows if we work together to put evidence-based interventions in place we can tackle & reduce violence & build brighter futures for young people & our communities.
Read the latest @AssocPCCs 'In Focus' to tackling serious violence 🔽
If you are a delegate to this year's conference make sure you vote Housing No 1 in the priorities ballot so that we get to debate it, and reassert the decisions of the 2019 and 2021 conferences, including committing Labour to fund 100,000 council homes a year and ending RTB.
Delighted to welcome @DebbieCookeFaz to the Council as the new Labour Cllr for Fazakerley East. She’ll be an excellent champion for her community @LiverpoolLabour
