Today,on the anniversary of Hillsborough, I remember the 97 & stand with their loved ones, who have fought so long for truth and justice.
We must ensure no family ever faces the same pain, denial and delay again.
That’s why we need the Hillsborough Law-strong, uncompromised and without further delay

Yesterday on the Business Select Committee we questioned Royal Mail's owner Daniel Kretinsky about the mountain of evidence there is that the Company prioritises parcels over letter deliveries- does he know what is going on in Royal Mail?

Good to speak to @unisontheunion activists this morning about all the fantastic measures in the Employment Rights Act that will make such a positive difference to their members and millions more people- showing the good things a Labour Government can do!

I spoke to Times Radio earlier about my reaction to the Peter Mandelson revelations- the police should be investigating and his title of "Lord" should be removed.

Leaseholders in England and Wales to have ground rent capped at £250 a year Keir Starmer says move is ‘good news for homeowners’ in TikTok video announcing change

The overriding consideration for the party should be who is best placed to win & represent the people of Gorton & Denton-no stitch ups, no 2nd guessing what might happen down the line. We need our best players on the pitch & the PM needs the best serving in his Government.

I welcome the news that the Government will look at a ban for under 16s on social media. However, as I said yesterday in the fireworks debate, I cannot reconcile the Govts refusal to do anything on decibel levels for fear of being seen as “nanny state” with the moves on mobiles.

Well said
@AngelaRayner

Last week I had the opportunity to question Fujitsu about their role in the Post Office scandal and their pledge not to bid for new government contracts in light of their role in it- its become apparent that their promise not to do so isnt as clear cut as it would first appear..

"Very shortly" says @Keir_Starmer on new leasehold laws coming forward- he's going to get asked this at PMQs every week until it happens!

The London Evri drivers getting pre-Xmas pay cuts Plus: Hampstead Heath cafes are changing, we tracked down the new Omaze house, and is your corner of London going to be skint?

Another worrying report about the way those classed as self employed are treated and why we need proper protections in place- getting a pay cut for doing a job well is no way to treat someone
