Had a fantastic weekend at @YoungLabourUK Congress repping for @GMB_union. Was great to have so many good conversations and to see lots of young workers sign up to join the union. GMB is fighting for the future of work and young workers are signing up to join the fight ✊
I support the immediate recognition of the state of Palestine. But that in itself will not end the war. The mass starvation, indiscriminate killing and illegal occupation must end now.
Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday. And right now, @UKLabour’s introducing #votesat16 That’s four votes for a family with two sixth formers!
This is great to see and absolutely right that 16 and 17 year olds have a chance to take part in our democratic processes. They’ve been able to vote in Scotland for more than a decade and it’s only been a positive thing.
Today we’re delivering on our promise to give 16 and 17 year olds the right to vote. Young people already contribute to society by working, paying taxes and serving in the military. It's only right they can have a say on the issues that affect them. #VotesAt16

Union expels the woman who has done more for worker and union rights in the past year, than any politician has done in decades.
UNITE have suspended Angela Rayner. The union have also said they will "re-examine its relationship" with the Labour Party.
🔄Let’s rewind on a BIG year for the Scotland Office… 📣Promoting Brand Scotland 💷Driving growth to put more £s in working people’s pockets ⚡Launch of GB Energy for lower energy bills & that’s just the beginning of the UK Gov’s #PlanForChange @IanMurrayMP @kirstyjmcneill
Somebody got upset and cried at work. That’s it. Not sure we need the reams of “analysis” about what somebody shedding a tear *means* and the fevered Westminster speculation about the possible consequences of it, which will almost certainly be non-existent. What it means is that…
Ever wonder how Douglas Ross is doing post leadership?
What a Congress! It was amazing to see nearly 300 of our members in Cardiff at our biggest event in a decade with @LabourStudents 🌹🏴
And that’s a wrap! What a fantastic weekend in Cardiff at #Congress25 by @YoungLabourUK and @LabourStudents We were so lucky to be joined by @AngelaRayner, @darrenpjones and nearly 300 young members at our biggest event in a decade 🌹
What an absolutely fabulous weekend in Cardiff for the long awaited return of the UK Labour Youth and Students Congress 🏴🌹 So great to catch up with familiar faces and meet many new ones. Huge props to our National Chairs Jack and Ruby for pulling off such a great event!
