Nine years on from the Grenfell Tower fire, we remember the 72 people who lost their lives and stand with the bereaved families, survivors and the North Kensington community. Grenfell was a preventable tragedy. The Inquiry exposed systemic failures across government, regulators and industry. Yet, nine years later, no one has been held accountable. As Grenfell Tower is dismantled and communities continue to fight for justice, the lessons of Grenfell must never be forgotten. Safe homes are a right, not a privilege.

It’s official. GMB Congress has just made One Parliament One Employer GMB policy. 650 MPs. 650 separate employers. One broken system. Not for much longer.

I am deeply saddened to learn that Lily was among the Navy personnel who lost their lives in the helicopter accident yesterday in Devon. Lily was a force of nature, the only serving female Commando, and inspiration to other young women - and frankly to me as well. When I met her in Parliament in May 2025, I put the following post out on LinkedIn with the photo below. "Her journey ... is one of courage, persistence, and service. Lily is doing a fantastic job helping young people understand what life in the Armed Forces is really like, and why service matters. We need more stories like hers in the public eye." The names of the three individuals who sadly lost their lives this week have been released in full: Lt Cdr Chris Gayson, Lt Lil-Mae Fisher, PO Owen Green. My thoughts are with their families and loved ones at this terribly sad moment. In a statement carried on the Royal Navy website, Lily's family say of her: “Lily-Mae was an extraordinary woman, daughter, sister, and partner. To say she was full of life is an understatement: she took every opportunity to push her limits, achieve more, and bring out the best in those around her. “We are so proud of everything she accomplished. She has left an immeasurable hole in our lives, and in all the lives she has touched and inspired. The family kindly ask for time and space at this difficult time.”

Reform-led Durham council cut off funding to the annual Pride celebrations. So trade unions launched a fundraiser to save it, eventually raising more money than was cut. Which means this year's Pride will be bigger than ever. In the 1980s, the LGBT community raised thousands of pounds to help striking miners and their families. When we stick up for each other, we can achieve anything.

Denby is a British ceramics icon. Now £120 million in new Government support for UK ceramics changes the facts on the ground. We’re calling on administrators to halt the winding down of production at Denby’s Derbyshire HQ. Watch & hear why ⬇️
