I agree with Andy Burnham

Today the APPG on Occupational Safety & Health launches an important report. Covered here in The Times and The Sunday Times: we call on government to ban Altrad UK, Ireland & Nordics from public contracts until it makes right its inherited asbestos legacy.






Today is Retail Workers Day - a chance to thank everyone who works hard to keep our highstreets thriving. It’s also a chance to reflect on the awful abuse so many staff face and the brilliant work UsdawUnion does to stand up for them.



The PLP needs to put its foot down & stop this nonsense briefed out by some of the clowns around No10. The idea that scrapping the 2 child limit is to be some sort of punishment beating of the PLP for voting against disability benefit cuts is disgusting. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…
