I want to pay tribute to Hollie Ridley, who is standing down as Labour’s General Secretary after Conference. I’ve really enjoyed working with her as Deputy Leader. /1

Real excitement at the Good Growth Summit in Manchester today hosted by Juergen Maier. It takes collaboration, vision and innovation to achieve the good growth we all want.

Great to chat to @tommctague.bsky.social at @newstatesman1913.bsky.social Politics Live event today - we talked about how we use this moment to drive culture change in the Labour Party so that we listen, respect and value the contribution of our whole movement not just one part of it.

I had a brilliant time at the local Labour Party's Telford Dining Club. It was great to catch up with so many members and supporters. Thank you @shaundaviesmp.bsky.social for organising and inviting me along.

Good to be with so many friends and colleagues tonight at @lfpme.bsky.social The Labour Party’s commitment to justice, freedom and security for Palestinians is unwavering.

What Manchesterism could mean for every part of the country 👇🏻

This first pledge from @bevcraig.bsky.social is going down very well with young people here. This will make public transport more accessible, opening up more opportunities and will ease the cost of living pressures on families

On the BBC this morning talking about how changing culture is part of doing politics differently

Great to help launch @bevcraig.bsky.social’s campaign to be Mayor of Greater Manchester - joined by so many of our amazing Labour activists. Bev will be a Mayor for all our city-region, with the drive and determination to build on @andyburnham.bsky.social’s proud legacy.

I’m really pleased that a draft Bill to ban conversion practices for LGBTQ+ people has been published today. I made sure it was in our first Kings Speech and I’m glad we are keeping this important commitment to equality and to protect people from abuse.

Congratulations to @bevcraig.bsky.social who will be a fantastic Mayor of Greater Manchester. I’ve seen first hand how she’s transformed outcomes for children and people across the city region. She’s a change maker and a leader and I look forward to hitting the campaign trail with her soon

My interview yesterday on how we need to show the country we can do an orderly transition well.

Great to welcome the newest member of the PLP, my friend Andy Burnham to Parliament. He'll be a brilliant representative for the people of Makerfield, and I am sure he will quickly make his mark in this place!

As a Party, we owe Keir Starmer a huge amount. He made us electable again, and led us to a landslide election win only two years ago. He has overseen important achievements since then. 1/

What a fantastic result. After such difficult results in May, it’s great to win again and show how, and that we can, beat Reform in communities like Makerfield.

My message as the polls closed in Makerfield 👇🏻

There are hundreds and hundreds of activists in Makerfield today. Come and help Get out the Vote

Lots of support for @andyburnham.bsky.social on the doors in Makerfield today. With @adamjogee.bsky.social, @callumandersonmp.bsky.social & @matthewpennycookmp.bsky.social.

Come on England!

With England's World Cup campaign kicking off tonight, I want to give a huge shout out to East Manchester's own Nico O'Reilly! He's had an incredible season, including his heroics in the League Cup Final. He's a very well deserved young player of the year. Come on England!

It’s hard to believe it’s 10 years since my friend, the amazing, Jo Cox was murdered. I will never forget that moment nor the time after it. It’s still hard to compute. That such a positive, impactful, caring, inclusive woman could be taken in that way for doing her job as an MP, still shocks.

Ten years since Jo’s murder and the message from her family and David Amess’s is more important than ever. 👇 Jo’s words should guide us - we have far more in common than that which divides us. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

This is sad news. Roy Hattersley, best known for being Neil Kinnock’s deputy leader, shaped the Labour Party and British politics. He was a giant of our movement and of that generation of politicians. I met him a few times and he was always kind, thoughtful and full of sound advice. RIP.

Today we remember the tragedy of Grenfell Tower nine years on. 72 lives lost. Lost because there were serious failures in regulation, in governance, and in accountability.

Our whole movement has come together in Makerfield to elect @andyburnham.bsky.social Great to join @labourunionsuk.bsky.social, Labour activists and PLP colleagues on this crucial weekend before polling day on Thursday. Only Labour can defeat Reform’s toxic politics, and represent working people.

Nigel Farage is getting desperate. My @politics.mirror.co.uk column on how the shine is really coming off Reform; making the changes in the Employment Rights Act a reality; the World Cup kicking off; and my theatre appearance this week👇🏻 www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Reform is importing populist tactics which have undermined democracy elsewhere to here, fuelling online mis and disinformation, conspiracies and murky crypto donations. We need tougher action. My latest in the Guardian👇 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Lots of important by-elections happening in London and across the country - as well as THAT one. I know how hard labour activists worked in the recent elections but please do come out and help if you can.

Really enjoyed speaking to @matt-forde.bsky.social for his Political Party podcast live at the Duchess Theatre on Monday. Listen here 👇🏻

Despite voters going to the polls just weeks ago, a number of Green councillors across London have stood down-meaning costly, unnecessary by-elections. Tonight I’ve been with Clapham Park Labour candidate Louie Somerville Sutherland speaking to residents about how committed he is to the area.

Fantastic rally and turnout from @labourunionsuk.bsky.social in Makerfield today for @andyburnham.bsky.social. The response from the movement has been immense and means we have knocked on every door - almost twice now!

To beat Reform in Makerfield we’ve all got to come together as one Labour team with our best available players. Speaking to @politics.mirror.co.uk about what’s at stake in this by-election 👇🏻 www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Great to join so many Labour members, PLP colleagues and Young Labour activists out in sunny Makerfield to get @andyburnham.bsky.social elected.

A fantastic visit to the beautiful @porticolibrary.bsky.social today, meeting the brilliant team there & viewing some of their historic collection. I was updated on the work they are doing to raise funds for their exciting Portico Reunited project...

It’s hard to believe it was 9 years ago today 22 people lost their lives at the Manchester Arena attending a concert. It was a truly horrific attack which we will never forget. We will always remember those who lost their lives and those whose lives were changed forever.

Great to speak to @aslefunion.bsky.social members this morning. Labour’s super power is our union link. Working with unions, Labour is delivering a manifesto which will rewire our country. Have a great conference.

Great to be out in Makerfield today speaking with voters. This is a huge by-election and we must all come together as one Labour team to win it, and send Reform packing. *our candidate selected v soon!

As polls close I want to thank all our Labour members and supporters who have stood with us and contributed to our campaigns in whatever way. And to all our candidates - the whole Party are so proud of you, serving your local communities and putting yourselves forward for election.   Thank you.

Ending the day campaigning in Manchester. There’s still time to help us to get the vote out and vote Labour. Polls close at 10pm.

Next stop Oldham! Great to see @jimmcmahon.co.uk and a really positive response on the doors.

Great to see the fantastic Labour team in St Helens this morning! Good luck 🌹

Reasons to vote Labour today 🌹

Tomorrow, voters face a clear choice. Labour councils putting our values into action-fixing potholes, running breakfast clubs, investing in local services. Or incompetence, division & fantasy with Reform & the Greens. Great to be in Southwark w Keir, @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social & the Labour team

Great to be out with @rachelblakemp.bsky.social and the Labour team in Westminster today speaking to residents and admiring the views of London from Peabody Avenue.

Campaigning in my old patch Moss Side with Afzal Khan for Erinma Bell. One of my favourites - Maine place. And with Labour stalwarts and my dear friends Alistair and Gabrielle Cox.

What new laws have been passed since the election in a nutshell 👇

We shouldn’t be shy about the progressive policies we’re delivering and we shouldn’t let others come on to our ground when we’re actually delivering a progressive agenda. More from my time speaking to @theguardian.com in Leeds www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“There’s no magic bullet here for us. We are in a difficult world." "I strongly believe that we’ve got the right agenda to start turning things around. To give people hope, an opportunity and see the change in their communities.” My @theguardian.com interview whilst campaigning in Leeds.

Rewiring the economy so it works for you; a deal to end the bin strikes in Birmingham; GCSE season starts; and will Arsenal bottle it? My Sunday Mirror column today @politics.mirror.co.uk Please buy a copy of the paper too.
