The Chris Herries Development Programme is empowering women by sharing her memory and values to the next generation.

The training delivered through Labour Women’s Network focused on the feminist giants of the Co-operative Party’s history and how to reflect these values in our own leadership. We were encouraged to push ourselves to think more strategically and to bring out the best in those with whom we work.

It’s time to reform our leasehold system.

The recent Labour Party conference has confirmed the Party’s policy of replacing the leasehold system by making the commonhold form of freehold title the default tenure.  The 5 million leaseholders who live in England and Wales , often in marginal constituencies , will welcome such a proposal. Virtually all the English-speaking world has done away with the leasehold system.

No one should face violence at work – but for many, it’s simply become just part of the job.

In Two Cities and Westminster, we’re proud to be home to one of the world’s most iconic shopping destinations. Places like Oxford Street, Regent Street and Carnaby Street have become go-to places for many people when visiting London. However, for too many of our shopworkers working in our constituency’s many retail stores, they’re now facing a daily routine of threats, abuse and violence.
