25 years ago today Labour introduced the minimum wage. The grey faces opposed it then saying it would kill jobs. It didn’t. It changed lives. But there is more to do. That is why the next Labour government will start a New Deal for Working People.

There’s a reason Tory attacks on the New Deal did not land and Reform campaigned in the general election to “make work pay”. Voters of all parties back Labour’s plans to boost workers’ rights, poll shows.

GMB members striking in ambulance services today have all day given such great accounts of themselves on the media. No wonder Ministers are hiding from them - you can’t argue with their case. #TalkPayNow

Low pay in the NHS means that dedicated ambulance workers are struggling to stay in the service. @SteveBarclay needs to talk pay now. #TalkPayNow 🚑

ANOTHER pay freeze would be a kick in the teeth for public sector workers. It would be a complete insult to millions of workers who have put themselves in danger by dedicating their whole year to keeping us safe. Agree? Sign the @GMB_Union petition ↓

I grew up in a terrace overlooking the festival site. I know a lot of the attractions have gone all over - Newport, Oakwood, Folly Farm. I wonder if anyone has tracked down a full list of where they all went?

After Marine Colliery closed my dad as never earned as decent a pay packet - in real terms - as he did up until 1990. The mask slips. Shameful.
