The Metropolitan Police isn’t only going after phone snatchers, but the criminal gangs that are fuelling smuggling networks. Thank you to our hardworking officers for their dedication in bringing these criminals to justice, backed by record funding from City Hall. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Knowsley deserves high streets that are safe, thriving and free from organised crime. I’m backing Labour’s £30m crackdown on rogue businesses linked to money laundering and exploitation – with more raids, closures & tougher enforcement to drive criminals out of our communities.

A mum in Stockbridge Village contacted me after her housing provider refused to install safety gates outside her home, despite concerns for her son's safety who has complex needs. I took up her case, and the provider agreed to install gates and fencing outside the property. ❤️

No one should have to fight for time to grieve. From April 2027, employees who lose a loved one or experience pregnancy loss before 24 weeks will now have the right to two weeks' bereavement leave. Labour's plan to Make Work Pay is giving families breathing room when they need it most.

Today, the Labour government repealed the Vagrancy Act, ending laws that criminalised rough sleeping and begging for two centuries. It pushed vulnerable people away from support and made it harder to rebuild their lives. This is a vital milestone in working towards ending homelessness altogether.
