Oh yes, we're back! We're currently focused on campaigning for two things: 🌹 Humanist values in the Labour Party 🌹 A Labour government in Westminster Sounds good to you? If so, join us for free at labourhumanists.org.uk

We’re absolutely delighted that Andy Slaughter has been elected Chair of the Justice Committee. A great choice. Good luck, Andy!

No woman should ever face harassment or intimidation for going to a healthcare appointment. Nearly ten years ago in Opposition, I called on the Government to introduce buffer zones round abortion clinics. Now in Government we are acting. On 31 October, it will become the law.

Super impressed with Jess Phillips and Yvette Cooper on this! It shows the difference when you have a compassionate Labour government. The arguments put forward to justify Conservative dither and delay on this issue were all made in bad faith. Glad to see the cobwebs cleared.

We're gearing up excitedly for Labour Party conference 🌹🌹 where we'll be volunteering at the Humanists UK stall at Stand D6 in Liverpool Come along and speak to us about our priority campaigns, how to get involved, or how to get one of our nifty Labour Humanists T-shirts 👀

We're looking forward to seeing lots of you in person for drinks in Liverpool at The Labour Party conference #LPC24

Lovely to chat to so many Labour MPs already at #LPC24 in Liverpool about our campaign priorities in the new Parliament, including a compassionate assisted dying law, legal recognition of humanist marriage, & inclusive curriculum reform. So much optimism among MPs for our agenda!

We had such a fantastic event last night with Labour Humanists at #LPC24, with speakers Alf Dubs Angela Eagle DBE Rachel Hopkins MP Ruth Cadbury and Nia Griffith MP. So much positivity for what we as a positive movement for progressive social change can achieve in the next few years. ❤️

Delighted by the speeches at our annual drinks reception with Humanists UK. Such wonderful allies to have. As well as openings on marriage and assisted dying, King’s Speech offers a lot of hope for humanist campaigns on the curriculum, Commons modernisation, Lords reform. #LPC24

Feet are still sore from a brilliant #LabConf24, but delighted to have met and spoken to so many members old and new. To everyone who signed up at conference, look out for a post-conference update next week setting out steps for getting more involved in our work 💪🌹

Very sorry to learn of the death of a humanist trailblazer, Anna Lo from Alliance, who was the first Chinese parliamentarian in UK history Though we had different politics, Anna shared our values of compassion, reason and kindness in politics. A huge loss humanists.uk/2024/11/08/nor…

Really wonderful speech from Keir Starmer today. He is absolutely right that the Government cannot be swayed by populist rhetoric - it has to make its focus on delivering results in the form of security, money in their pockets and working public services. x.com/BBCPolitics/st…

Wonderful news! New MP Lizzi Collinge MP - whose maiden speech in Parliament emphasised the how a humanist approach to life had shaped her political convictions - has been elected as the new chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Humanist Group. Congratulations Lizzi! 👏

Brilliant news. Labour's Harriet Harman has put forward an amendment to the Hereditary Peers Bill on bishops in the Lords. If passed, the amendment would mandate that the Government to develop proposals to remove the Lords Spiritual within two years. humanists.uk/2025/01/21/har…
