People with disabilities are disproportionately affected by conflict, and the climate and nature crisis.
That's why Minister for Equalities @SeemaMalhotra1 reaffirmed the UK's commitment to the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities at the @UN#COSP18.
It’s #RaceEqualityWeek! Raising living standards for everyone is a key step in our Plan for Change – putting more money into everyone’s pockets.
Minister for Equalities, Seema Malhotra, visited @DeloitteUK to learn how @BITC members are addressing race inequality at work.
So proud to be out with local businesses today to mark #smallbizsaturday.
Our small businesses are the lifeblood of our local economy.
That’s why Labour is taking action to help our SMEs thrive and grow, and bring much needed life back into our high streets.

A really wonderful visit to @BerkeleyAcad_UK Year 6 class today. Thankyou to all the pupils for the great questions on democracy and the life of an MP, and for sharing the work they have been doing on climate action and supporting our local environment. Truly a class of young leaders! @Shansview@Cllrsamiach@hounslowherald
Great to meet children and parents at the school gate this morning in Heston to chat about the issues they have and about Labour’s plans for investing in our teachers and our schools:

🤝Mental health support staff in every school
💼Work experience for every young person
Delighted to have attended the Labour Creatives Conference today.
Labour will:
🖌️ Boost creative skills
🏙️ Support investment in the arts

🎼 Introduce a National Music Education Network
The Tories have overseen 14 years of decline in skills and training, making Britain poorer.
Labour will invest in people across our communities to deliver opportunity for all, skills for business and growth for the nation.
