Thank you to @NMineworkers for your nomination. I am proud to have your support to be Scottish Labour's next leader.

Everyone should have the right to a contract that reflects the hours they actually work.
📅 35 hours one week.
📉 12 hours the next.
How is anyone supposed to budget, pay the bills or plan their life like that?🤷♀️
The hours you actually work belong in your contract.

Really positive first TULO meeting today with our new PM @andyburnham and Deputy Leader @LucyMPowell.
We're looking forward to working in partnership to give working people hope again - with good, unionised jobs, strong public services and a New Deal for Workers. 🌹🤝

TULO unions met with Andy Burnham today and had a very positive discussion about our shared priorities.
Working people need a hopeful vision of the future – that means unions must be true partners in a Labour Government.
Labour and unions are stronger together.

The hours you actually work belong in your contract.
Labour’s Employment Rights Act can make that happen – if we get the details right.
Join @MWheelerMP, and add your name to our call for everyone to have this important new right.

This is no longer about only workers' rights - it's also about our democracy.
Labour campaigned on the New Deal, the public voted for it - now unelected Lords are blocking it.
Enough is enough, no more political games - the House of Lords need to get out of the way and pass the Bill before Christmas #stoptheblock

Even at this late stage, opposition Lords are STILL voting to water down key measures in the Employment Rights Bill - risking delaying key new rights like access to Statutory Sick Pay from Day One.
It can't go on like this. The Lords must get out of the way and let the Bill pass, so we can deliver the new rights working people desperately need.

🚨Thousands of ex-mineworkers are set to receive extra retirement payments after @RachelReevesMP announced she would release funds from a pension scheme.
A huge shout-out to the women in our coalfield communities who fought for fairness every step of the way. Your strength made this happen. ✊

Miners powered our nation. They deserve support with the after-effects of a life down the pit.
Our Men’s Health Strategy will send the NHS to ex-mining communities to care for lung conditions.
@NMineworkers campaigned for it, Labour is delivering it.
