STORY New law protects care leavers from homelessness - how the big change will work mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

Really good to be back at @PCKLabour with Charlotte and @juliasuzanne76 celebrating Labour's return to Government!

Today we honour those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We will remember them.

Today @Keir_Starmer has committed millions of pounds of new funding for veterans’ homelessness support programmes. Homes will be there for heroes across the UK.

Addressing our overstressed childcare infrastructure must be part of any strategy to alleviate child poverty. Without childcare provision, parents can't work enough hours to support themselves and their children: lcsj.co.uk/post/childcare…

Out in Woodhouse today with local councillors @norris_for, Cllr Mick Rooney and a great Labour team. Lots of positive conversations with residents about local and national issues.

@maitlis Not just Sheffield... The whole of South Yorkshire! I grew up in Barnsley and remember 2p fares well.

They were 2p. Sheffield was famous for them !

Lived experience matters because without including our voices, context and impact are missed. Hearing our experiences is uncomfortable, but not as uncomfortable as living through them. We are an asset. lcsj.co.uk/post/this-is-n…

A great initiative that all Labour people should be looking at

Fantastic response for Saj in @Sheff_SE_CLP on the #labourdoorstep today! Shame about the weather though!

@SglParentRights I'll take a look

@LisaBanes_ This sounds great. We recently wrote to the Child Poverty Taskforce about just this on including single parents in those plans. We'd love to input into this if possible. This article tells you about our letter if you'd like to know more bylinetimes.com/2024/09/27/sin…

Today I'm launching the Labour Campaign for Social Justice, aiming to support those with lived experience of social issues within the Party for mutual empowerment and support the leadership to break the class ceiling. labourlist.org/2024/10/govern…
