Under the Tories, rail fares rose by 60%.
Labour is freezing rail fares, saving a frequent Coventry to Birmingham commuter an average of Β£100 per year.
Labour has the right plan to tackle the cost of living, and grow our economy.

I know that constituents in Coventry East will be concerned that recent global events will affect their energy bills.
The decisions taken by the Chancellor in the budget mean that the April-June price cap has been lowered by Β£117, regardless of global events.

Reform would set women’s rights back a generation.
Scrapping the Employment Rights Act and the Equality Act would weaken protections for millions of pregnant women, parents, and workers across Britain.
Labour is empowering women.
We will always stand up for equality and fairness.

That's why I'm proud that we are delivering a library in every primary school in England by the end of this parliament.

It's World Book Day!
Reading is not just fun for children, it boosts literacy, expands vocabulary, and stimulates imagination.
Yet one-in-seven primary schools in the UK do not have a library , rising to one-in-four for disadvantaged areas (National Literacy Trust)

I visited Asda in Henley for National Apprenticeship Week, where I spoke to Jacob about the impact that his apprenticeship has on his life.
Work-life balance, opportunities, and more - that is what apprenticeships are all about.

Today is World Wildlife Day, and as Minister for Nature, I'm proud of our record on wildlife.
