Today marks the beginning of Black History Month, in which we celebrate the invaluable contributions of Black people in the UK and around the world.
Labour will enshrine in law the right to equal pay and tackle structural racial inequalities.
At
@UKLabour
conference it was announced that more will be done for veterans, care leavers & victims of domestic abuse to help protect them from homelessness.
This Govt is committed to giving them security they deserve.
This week it was a privilege to attend
@UKLabour
party conference and interact with so many inspiring individuals and organisations.
This was Labour's first conference in Government after so many years and we are determined to bring about the change our country deserves.
Congratulations on

I’m extremely proud to support this vital collaboration, which has supported so many foster carers across the North East across the past year and will support countless more in years to come 🌟
My fantastic ministerial team at the Department for Education.
At Labour Conference we’ve set out how change and delivery have begun.
And we won’t stop until background is no barrier to opportunity for all our people.
Promises made, promises kept.
We’re taking steps to break down the barriers to opportunity at the start of lives.
Child-centred government in action. Change begins.

We inherited a Tory housing crisis, but this Labour Government is taking a wave of bold action to deliver decent homes for all.
✅Building the housing Britain needs
✅Boosting social and affordable housing
✅Ensuring all homes are decent, safe, and warm
It was a pleasure to meet some champions this week in Wolverhampton who are on the frontline of keeping children safe from harm.
I got to see first-hand how their work in the Family Hub ensures there is early intervention for vulnerable children before problems escalate.
