Derby Labour Party

Never forget. Never again.

John Prescott was one of the key architects of a Labour Government that transformed the lives of millions across the nation. Watch @Keir_Starmer’s tribute to him in Parliament today.

Wonderful to be back at Darley Abbey Mills to meet with businesses alongside @ClaireWard4EM. The Mills are rich in history - yet inside is full of businesses looking to the future. From workshops to galleries, offices to studios - it’s packed full of creativity & innovation.

I'm proud that this government is opening doors of opportunity for international trade and investment, boosting communities of makers like mine in Derby.

Our community remembering the fallen, visiting Claremont House residents, hearing experiences of Endometriosis, connecting with our city's businesses, listening to our students, speaking on High Speed Rail, this term's first Transport Committee & lots more - catch up here:

Welcome news today that waiting lists have fallen. Since we ended the strikes, we have been ramping up delivery of an extra 40,000 extra appointments every week. With the investment in the Budget, plus the reforms announced yesterday, we will get patients treated faster.

Grassroots football builds confidence, friendships, and lifelong healthy habits for kids. No child should miss out on joining a team. I joined @dcfcofficial, @DCCTOfficial the @FA, @PLCommunities to support inclusive sport for girls. Inspiring to see women's sport thriving.

Don’t forget what they did.

A massive kudos to @DerbysPolice for organising the Derby City Hope Hack yesterday. They did so with partners such as @DerbyCC, @derbytheatre, @babypeopleuk, @StreetDoctors and many others. #DerbyCityHopeHack

This Labour govt has been getting Britain moving again by ending industrial disputes & bringing our rail back into public ownership - with the HQ here in Derby. I asked the Transport Secretary to update on progress so far so we passengers can be assured we’re on the right track.

Minister @AlexJJNorris joined @mayoreastmids to visit one of the East Midlands Investment Zone sites in Derby to see how £160 million of government investment will boost skills and help create jobs.

Veterans represent the very best of us. It was an honour to hear some of their stories today.

This is the change Labour’s Budget will deliver 👇

The Mental Health Act is as old as I am - born in 1983! It is letting down some of the most vulnerable in our society, and is in urgent need of reform. Today we’re introducing the Mental Health Reform Bill into the Lords - delivering on the promise we made at the election 👇🏻

You've seen PS I Love You (with Hilary Swank and Gerard Butler), you've seen the mind-bending collection Roar, which was adapted for TV by Nicole Kidman. But now, @Cecelia_Ahern is coming to #DBFAutumn24 to discuss Into the Storm with Festival fave, @JoannaCannon at @derbyquad

No one should be forced to sleep rough on our streets. The funding announced by @AngelaRayner today will save lives by ensuring rough sleepers have access to a safe and warm bed.

The Tories haven't listened, they haven't learnt, and they haven't changed. Meanwhile, this Labour Government is fixing the foundations to deliver change.

Whoever wins the Tory leadership election tomorrow, they represent more of the failure and scandal that left Britain broken after 14 years.

This is a Budget to break down the barriers to opportunity. #Budget2024

This Budget chooses to fix our NHS. #Budget2024
