    The scandal of dangerous cladding means people aren’t safe in their homes. In the new Parliamentary session we need urgent action from across Government to protect leaseholders, and make those responsible for building unsafe homes in the first place pay for and fix defects.

    The Government’s failure to introduce an Employment Bill means that far from “levelling up”, they are presiding over a levelling down of pay, terms and conditions as practices such as fire and rehire become widespread and insecure employment grows

    Deeply disappointed - but not at all surprised - that there was nothing in the today about strengthening vital protections for workers or putting an end to . This Government simply doesn't care.

    Academisation is a busted flush. It's failed students and educators alike, but Gavin Williamson still wants to force more schools to join multi-academy trusts. Join the Socialist Education Association on May 13th to discuss the alternative.

    One in four voters lack a valid driver's licence or passport. These proposals are a shameless attempt to disenfranchise millions of the poorest, youngest, and most marginalised people in the UK. This assault on democracy must be resisted.
