Reflecting on yesterday's brilliant launch of #TeamGMB Councillors Network. It is so important that we build on the Industrial and Political Link . Together we are stronger and more equipped to take on the Tories and return a much needed Labour Government.

Much excitement in the family whatsapp group this morning at the prospect of an Indian and a Pakistani bringing about the partition of Britain

I don't find the term "institutionally racist" to be ambiguous.
I didn't when Macpherson used it after Stephen Lawrence was murdered, and I didn't find it ambiguous when I was the Minister for Race Equality.
Own it.

I want to thank Baroness Casey for her report which is tough but essential reading.

The scale of change required is vast, but as I witnessed in Northern Ireland, it can be done.

My Labour government will lead police reform.

"Why did I do it? Because I thought the war was wrong. And in time, unfortunately, I feared history would prove the 139 rebels to be right."

In a piece from 2013, @ParmjitDhanda recalls his decision to rebel against the government on Iraq: https://labourlist.org/2023/03/i-thought-the-war-was-wrong-parmjit-dhanda-on-his-decision-to-rebel-on-iraq/
