The Jobs Guarantee. Offering young people not just work, but hope for the future.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

Building a system that offers people not just an income, but a future. This is the cause of our times. Let's get on and do it.

For too long, young disabled people have been written off. From next April, young disabled people will be moved to the front of the queue for Labour’s Jobs Guarantee, allowing them to access fantastic new opportunities.

More chances in life for young people. We’re announcing that training for young people will be fully funded for employers. We’re also developing a bursary to help 16–19-year-olds in greatest need to access them. Thats what we are about.

Making it easier for young people to learn the skills to get into good jobs:

A fundamental change in our education system: giving equal weight to academic routes and technical education, work experience and a focus on local opportunities.

Congratulations to Andy Burnham on becoming Prime Minister. His speech yesterday was inspiring and full of hope. It's an honour to be reappointed as Work and Pensions Secretary. My focus will continue to be helping young people into work, supporting disabled people, and protecting pensioners.

"How can we help you change your life?" This is the questions that our welfare system should be asking, not simply ticking boxes of what benefits someone is entitled to. This how we build a working state, not a welfare state, where work and opportunity are at the heart of policy.

There is a crisis of opportunity facing young people. I was pleased to introduce Alan Milburn to present his interim report on Young People and work.

For a lower cost of living, a stronger NHS and investment in local communities - Vote Labour today 🌹

Labour is backing young people with the skills and support they need, while working with employers to open more doors. It is fantastic to see McDonald’s using their position to help even more overcome barriers and set them up for successful careers.

Great to sit down with Jimmy McLoughlin OBE to discuss our plans to provide new opportunities for young people to earn and learn. Give it a watch here: youtu.be/pXftZYQYCkM?...

Getting young people into work and training is welfare reform. We're not giving up on young people who are struggling to find work. We're giving them new opportunities, by funding cash bonuses to businesses that hire young people. Find out more here: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 24/03/2026

Businesses will be able to recieve £3,000 for hiring a young person who has been out of work for 6 months, and SMEs can get £2,000 for hiring young apprentices. We're getting young people into work and supporting the businesses who hire them. Our new deal for new times. www.gov.uk/government/n...

We are expanding the Youth Guarantee, meaning that any 18-24 year old out of work for 18 months will be guaranteed 6 months paid work. The Tories abandoned the young to unemployment, Reform call them scroungers, but Labour is backing young people with 200,000 new opportunities.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 18/03/2026

Backing young people and backing employers. We're taking action on youth unemployment, giving hope and opportunity to young people.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 04/02/2026

Yesterday, Labour voted to lift children out of poverty. The Tories and Reform would leave them in poverty. Why? Not to save money. Not to change behaviour. But for political reasons - with children paying the price.

Free breakfast clubs Expanding free school meals 30 hour of free childcare This isn't just passing along cash, but investing in children's future, opening new opportunities for the poorest children. #PrideInWolverhamptonSouthEast

When Farage parrots Putin's lines, he's not just abandoning Ukraine, but putting all of Europe and the UK in danger.

Almost a million young people supported through expanded training and work experience. That’s what the Youth Guarantee delivers.

'They are criminal scams, and I don't want anyone to be exploited by them' Today, we're warning about Winter Fuel Payment scam texts. The Government will never ask for bank details by text. If you are entitled to the Winter Fuel Payment, you'll receive them automatically.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 10/10/2025

We've seen this movie before... Just like Liz Truss, Kemi Badenoch is committing to tax cuts with no way to pay for them. And just like Liz, Kemi would spook markets and crash our economy. People still feel the impact Mini-Budget. Reform and the Tories would let it happen all over again.

BREAKING NEWS: Major boost in funding to support sick and disabled people back into work. Today I'm announcing a £167 million investment in Connect to Work. Instead of just using Jobcentres, we're putting specialist employment advisors in GP surgeries to support people back into work.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 06/10/2025

As always, a busy Labour Party Conference. And with it, a huge slate of fantastic announcements: The Youth Guarantee to end long-term unemployment for young people. New NHS Online. A library in every primary school in England. 500,000 more children to benefit from Labour's free breakfast clubs.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 01/10/2025

That’s a wrap on Labour Party Conference 2025!

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 30/09/2025

Announced today: the Youth Guarantee. Every young person who has received Universal Credit for 18 months without “earning or learning” will be guaranteed an offer of paid work. We will not stand by while a generation is consigned to benefits almost before they’ve begun.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 25/09/2025

Labour has announced the Government is in talks with the Premier League to support the Youth Guarantee – helping more young people get into work or training. This announcement includes £25 million investment into helping young people get jobs, training and education.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 22/09/2025

Since the election, Labour has funded 5 million extra NHS appointments. This makes a huge impact on the waiting lists that were ever-growing nt under the Tories. But we know there is more to do, and we'll keep working hard for our NHS.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 16/09/2025

One week in as Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, I'm focused on building a welfare state that is there for those that need it, and helps support people into work.

Pat McFadden MP @patmcfaddenmp.bsky.social · 08/09/2025

Help for those who need it. Getting people into work. Security for pensioners. Increasing skills and opportunity.

Thousands of civil service jobs to be relocated to 13 towns and cities across the country. 11 central London offices will be closed - saving £94m per year - as the number of London roles is reduced by 12,000. We will save taxpayers money, and make Government better reflects the country it serves.

Today, Ronan's Law - a ban on the online sale of ninja swords - was passed in the House of Commons. Ronan's Law is named for my constituent Ronan Kanda who was killed aged just 16 with one of these swords bought online. Thank you to Ronan's mum Pooja and his sister Nikita for their tireless work.

The Government's first priority will always be keeping its citizens safe and secure. Yesterday I opened the UK Resilience Academy in Yorkshire. It will train 4000 people a year in emergency response and recovery. Part of our effort to make Britain stronger and able to meet the risks we face.
