Intern Aware

Delighted to be carrying on the campaign for fairer internships by backing the second reading of this Bill in @HouseofCommons this November. I've championed this cause in every term since my first election in 2010.

Big step forward as @LordCHolmes' fair internships bill is voted through the House of Lords. Now we're counting on campaigning MPs like @AlecShelbrooke @stellacreasy to make it law.

BREAKING: Peers pass @LordCHolmes Private Members Bill banning #unpaidinternships, with our support. Sends big signal to Govt for being complacent on an issue that holds young people back. The Bill now progresses to the Commons

@nicerecruiter @parislees @guardian @BBC @Channel4 Actually C4 has a very good approach to internships. There were issues at the Guardian and BBC but believe they've tackled it.
