Last year Labour were elected with a mandate for CHANGE – and their commitment to strengthening employment rights with the New Deal for Working People was spelled out in the Manifesto.
It’s time for unelected Tory and Lib Dem Lords to get out of the way, and stop blocking key manifesto commitments.

There’s also a Crossbench amendment, backed by the Tories last time, to unpick the 2016 commitment on Political Funds: proposing that the Tories’ ‘opt-in’ is retained – undermining unions’ right to campaign politically, and giving unions different and more draconian rules than other organisations.

Tory peers have been very creative and have designed a new Super Loophole to undermine any of the rights in Part 1 of the Bill, by creating a new kind of work called ‘seasonal work’
This undermines the right to a Guaranteed Hours Contract, protection from unfair dismissal and Fire and Rehire & more
