Great to meet Gordon Brown in Fife to see the work of the Big House Multibank.

Ending child poverty is Labour’s moral mission: it’s why I entered politics and it’ll be my top priority as deputy leader.

I’ve always been a campaigner, and that won’t change as your Deputy Leader.

I love getting out across our regions and nations.

As your Deputy Leader, I’ll be by your side, making members proud of our government and proud to knock on doors.

Deeply proud to be backed by Alan Johnson, a giant of the Labour movement.

The deputy leadership is a choice between a strong government true to our values and ready to win again, or the divided party for which Farage is desperate.

I’m a campaigner - and I’ll be a campaigning Deputy Leader.

This last week I’ve visited every region & nation in Britain - telling Labour’s story.

We need to unite, bring change, and defeat Reform to win again.

GMB is nominating Bridget Phillipson, our member of 20 years, for Labour Deputy Leader.

Labour’s pledge to reinstate the School Support Staff Negotiating Body is vital. GMB represents over 100,000 school support staff.

We look forward to Bridget delivering on Labour’s promise.
