Today we take a moment to reflect on all those who have died in service of our country - and all those who continue to serve.

Lest we forget.

30 years ago the Disability Discrimination Act came into force.

It made it illegal to discriminate against disabled people - for the first time.

There’s still so much to do. But we celebrate the steps forward along the way.

On this day we remember them.

We will never forget.

Blocking water bosses' bonuses after dismal performances is what the public rightly expect

Water workers toil night and day to keep the taps running and spillages down

But instead of investment in infrastructure they see money sucked out of the system in bonuses

It must stop.

For many IVF isn’t a choice: it’s the only option to start a family.

Yet despite the toll it takes, there's no proper support at work.

Infertility is a medical condition, recognised by the World Health Organisation.

Workers need paid leave for it.

The government have said they can only afford 2.5% for NHS Pay. That's not good enough.

Ministers must recognise the PRB is broken.

They need to come to the table themselves - and deliver the decent pay that NHS workers deserve.

Amazon cutting 14,000 jobs while registering astronomical profits shows everything that’s wrong with the business.

Bezos spends billions launching celebs into space, but he can’t treat his loyal workforce with dignity.

We'll always stand with Amazon workers.

Hi Claire 👋

The workers need to be paid too - childcare costs money

Hope this helps,
100,000 school support staff xx

New EU tariffs on steel would be a hammer blow to our steel industry.

The EU is our main export market.

Government must act swiftly to ensure we are given appropriate quotas.

Otherwise, this could be the end of UK steel making.

BREAKING 🚨: Tower Hamlets school staff facing fire and rehire restructure 🙅

Bonner Primary School’s plans will see 11 staff members lose their jobs - and remaining staff expected to do more work for the same pay 🏫

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the Jewish community after yesterday’s horrifying terrorist attack.

There is no place for antisemitism on our streets.

We must redouble our efforts to stamp it out across society.

Investing in shipbuilding.
Investing in our NHS.
Investing in new nuclear.

Add in ending fire and rehire, sick pay for all, and brand new union rights and it’s clear:

this Labour government wants to make our country better.

Let’s get on with it 👏

Every child deserves access to the best books.

The chancellor’s commitment to deliver a library in every primary school in England matters 📚

Every school support worker wants to help open children’s imaginations to the worlds inside books - and get them engaged in learning.

The Chancellor's commitment to buy British is incredible news for our shipbuilders.

For generations, our yards have kept the country safe: from beating the Armada to sinking the Bismarck.

This policy will reinvigorate UK shipyards- and the communities built around them.

Jaguar Land Rover is a British institution. We cannot leave its future to chance.

The Government underwriting a £1.5bn loan to support it is crucial - for the workers and wider supply chain.

The Midlands is at the heart of British manufacturing.
