Last week I met other Ministers from across the globe at @ilo conference 🇨🇭 to explain how British workers’ are finally getting the rights at work enjoyed in the world’s fairest countries.
Read what I had to say to the Guardian⤵️
On my way down south ahead of what looks like a busy first week in Westminster!
Thank you so much for all the incredibly kind messages. I can’t wait to get to work delivering for the people of Halifax 🌹
Marching with thousands of trade unionists today to #DemandBetter. It’s time for a new deal for working people starting with real help with energy bills and a pay rise. 📢
I’m sad to say I wasn’t selected as Labour’s candidate for the Wakefield by-election.
I wish the best to @simonlightwood who I know will work hard to turn this seat red again. I look forwards to seeing everyone on the doors as we fight to win back Wakefield! 🌹
Being elected to represent the people of Halifax is the honour of my life.
Thank you to everyone who voted for me, I promise to work tirelessly to repay your trust.
It’s time for change, let’s get to work 🌹
I am so proud to have been selected as the Labour candidate for Halifax.
We have the chance to build a better future for Halifax and the country. Only a Labour government will bring change after so many years of Tory decline.
I’ll see you all on the doorstep soon! 🌹
Before I was an MP, I worked to defend British steel with my colleagues at @CommunityUnion. Today MPs returned to Parliament on a rare Saturday sitting to stand up for Scunthorpe steel. We must protect these jobs, our communities, and Britain’s ability to make its own steel.
🚨Some personal news 🚨
I’m extremely proud to have been appointed to the Whips team.
Labour promised the country change, I’ll be working with all my superb colleagues to make it happen.
An excellent first day getting to grips with my brief and setting out our priorities for growth.
Thank you to the superb civil servants who’ve helped me get set up.
I am looking forward to meeting with business and trade union leaders in the days and weeks to come.
The Prime Minister has asked me to serve as Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at @biztradegovuk.
I’m so proud to take on this role alongside a superb team led by @peterkyle.
I can’t wait to get started delivering this government’s pro-growth, pro-workers’ rights agenda.
