Sky News and BBC News must be gutted.
So in the past 24 hours ‘blue’ Labour have delivered:
The employment rights bill
The planning and infrastructure bill
Rejoining Erasmus
The Johnson/Farage Russian investigation
Inflation at 3.2%
It’s all over the headlines
but Starmer or something

“What disturbs us is less what happened years ago, hurtful as it was, but rather your refusal to acknowledge your past behaviour or apologise for it”
If Farage was made to acknowledge his past behaviour or apologise for it, his career would have ended years ago.

And just like that, the historic Employment Rights Bill lands. Sick pay from day one. Day-one parental leave. Unfair dismissal rights after six months. Ban fire-and-rehire. Bereavement leave. Protections for pregnant women. Tougher redundancy rules. Fair Work Agency to enforce rights. #ukpolitics

Brilliant .. another Labour achievement!
Absolutely fabulous news!
The Lords have passed the Employment Rights Bill.
The 2 Houses now agree, & it can go for Royal Assent and become law.
It means the original time scale for implementation remains in place.
Amazing what the threat of extra sitting days just before Christmas can do!

A big thank you to Angela Rayner for her work on 2 bills which are going for Royal Assent (likely this week).
The Employment Rights Bill
The Planning and Infrastructure Bill
Both are flagship pieces of legislation from our Labour government.
She guided both through most stages in Parliament.

The Employments Rights Bill will end exploitative zero-house contracts, guarantee sick pay from day one and strengthen workplace protections. It shows the impact of a Government working with trade unions to improve working lives.

In a moment of extreme boredom at work I photocopied a paperclip using an entire pack of paper which I then reloaded into the copier, paperclip image right side up. I'd forgotten about this until a photocopier repair man had the machine in pieces looking for the paperclip.

It was 2 years before the policy was introduced.
It took years for the policy to grow, learn & expand.
It's how good policies tend to work.
Have patience for this Labour government. They are steadily getting on with many things.
And their best policy might not have even been announced yet!
