It's a really good day to organise. From today, unions will have the right of access to workplaces to meet workers, grow unions and raise wages and improve conditions across the country. More workers covered by collective bargaining is a key part of building an economy that delivers for workers. This has come about thanks to the New Deal for Working People - the Labour-union link in action. Join a union. Organise. Win.

Attending the launch of our Menopause Action Plan today — because supporting colleagues through menopause should be open, practical and stigma-free. Great to see real commitments on awareness, manager support and workplace adjustments. 💜 #MenopauseAtWork #worldmenopauseday – at Bolton, England

‘The idea that people give their life to care for other people’s parents on poverty pay…’ Prime Minister Andy Burnham gets emotional whilst talking about his late father's experience in the care system.

Enough is enough. For years, people have been expected to put up with Avanti’s cancellations, delays, overcrowding, and a service that has failed them time and time again. So my Labour government is bringing Avanti West Coast into public ownership at the earliest opportunity in March next year. That means passengers, not shareholders, will come first. More investment, fewer delays, and a renewed focus on getting the basics right. We're putting essential services back in public hands and building a railway that actually works for the people who use it.
