It's not for the unelected House to frustrate the will of the people, and that's exactly what they're doing.
Labour made this promise to the people when they sought election, so we should be abiding by it.

We can all read the manifesto ourselves and, and it says that we'll deliver day one rights and that includes unfair dismissal.
We're no longer doing it, so we're doing something completely inconsistent what was in the manifesto.

We went into the election with that manifesto promise to bring about day one rights, including the right not to be unfairly dismissed.
The whole principle of day one rights was the major pillar of the New Deal for Working People.

A Labour govt is at its best when it is truly Labour and radical.
We've got to make sure people have the housing they need.
Enough to pay the bills and enjoy life.

The big news for me was the abolition of the two child cap.
I've been campaigning for that ever since - and before - the election.
That's gone. That's great.

The government is proposing new powers to impose conditions that could limit the right to protest.
I raised this with the Home Office Minister after my recent motion and written questions.
I don't believe these powers are necessary or right.
