The new right to a guaranteed hours contract in the Employment Rights Act could be transformational, finally ending exploitative short and zero-hour contracts. But we must make sure we get the detail right and ensure all workers benefit.

〰️ Men's health is so important, that's why I'm supporting November UK. It was great to hear so many colleagues speak out this week about these issues and their personal experiences, and also to see our Government launch the first Men's Health Strategy. movember.com/m/MWheeler85...

This week, Labour’s game-changing Renters’ Rights Act became law, marking the start of a new era of fairness and security for renters. Don’t listen to the naysayers, this is a massive win for tenants. 🧵👇

"She said the quiet bit out loud". We can debate policy, and have different ideas, but we must call out racism when it's right in front of us. Well said Wes.

I'm horrified by the attack on worshippers at a synagogue in Manchester. My thoughts are with the victims, their families and the wider Jewish community at this difficult time. I stand in full solidarity with Jewish people in #WorsleyAndEccles and across the country.

I worked to improve people's pay and security before I was an MP and as one, I'm proud to have kept up that work. It's so important to everything we do and I'm not going to stop now.

Big news for Peel Green! £20 million over 10 years through @UKLabour’s Pride in Place Programme. Since being elected as the MP for #WorsleyAndEccles, my focus has been on making this community a good place to live. Now that work is paying off. Real investment. Real change. 👇

Last week, we urged the Lib Dems not to try to weaken the #EmploymentRightsBill. It was hugely disappointing that they joined forces with the Tories and Reform last night to do just that. Fortunately, this Labour Government stood firm and is delivering the Bill.

Welcome to #WheelersWeekly! I hope everyone had a good weekend. I had a great family day out at Eureka! in Halifax. Why not grab a drink and let’s catch up on my work in Westminster and in #WorsleyAndEccles. Here’s what I’ve been working on, and what’s been happening nationally. 👇

As I travel back to Parliament this morning, I'm preparing for the #EmploymentRightsBill to return from the Lords. They've watered it down and we can't let them. Here's what's happened and why it's so important Labour delivers for working people 👇

Today I, with other members of the @usdawunion.bsky.social Parliamentary Group, wrote to Lib Dem MPs calling on them to help undo the damage Lib Dem and Tory Lords did to the #EmploymentRightsBill. People in this country deserve security at work and guaranteed hours is part of that.

I worked with @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social on plans to improve early years and childcare before I was an MP. In Government, she's delivering those plans. Her commitment to delivering on this and the need for a strong Northern voice, means that I have nominated her for Labour Deputy Leader.

Parliament has resumed after recess, and I want to thank everyone in #WorsleyAndEccles who welcomed me over the past five weeks. Meeting residents, community groups, and local organisations has been a real privilege. I look forward to continuing these visits throughout the year.

Today, I joined the Chancellor, Rachel Reeves MP, and @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social at St Stephen’s in #WorsleyAndEccles to visit their new school-based nursery. I'm proud that St Stephen’s is one of 300 new or expanded nurseries and look forward to more schools benefiting from this Labour Government.
