Thousands of children protected from abuse under victim reforms Thousands more children will be protected from vile sex offenders under amendments to the Victims and Courts Bill tabled in Parliament today (Monday 20 October)

Our reforms will protect thousands more children & their mothers from abusive parents, a key step in Labourโ€™s Plan for Change to halve violence against women & girls.

This is Labour delivering safety, dignity and change.

Today, we honour the 144 lives lost in the Aberfan disaster, 116 children and 28 adults. On October 21, 1966, tragedy struck when a coal tip engulfed Pantglas Junior School, devastating an entire community.

I was honoured to be at Anfield to pay tribute to the 97 who were unlawfully killed at Hillsborough. Their families and campaigners have fought with extraordinary courage and dignity for decades, and this law is a powerful step towards lasting justice and accountability. #JFT97 #YNWA

The Hillsborough Law will help ensure truth can never again be concealed by the state, and that justice truly belongs to all.

In light of todayโ€™s rainy weather, here are some key emergency contact numbers in case of flooding. Hopefully, you wonโ€™t need them! Stay safe and take extra care!

Get in touch if you need any help or support.

I pay tribute to the brave families of Michael O'Leary, Helen McCourt, Sarah Everard and April Jones who have campaigned so bravely for change in this area in the face of true adversity. It is an honour to work alongside them.

The desecration of a corpse is not currently a criminal offence in England and Wales. I'm pleased the Law Commission will take forward work to ensure perpetrators of such harrowing crimes can be punished - helping bring some closure and healing to grieving families.

It is devastating enough to imagine the horror of finding out a loved one has been murdered, but discovering what happened to their body can cause unspeakable and enduring agony to victims' families.

Had the chance to visit Barod, an organisation supporting people affected by drug & alcohol use.

They provide non-judgemental, client-led support and play a big role in raising awareness & shaping policy in Wales.

Thanks for all you do Barod!

The Womenโ€™s Rugby World Cup gets underway tonight, and the excitement is building. A few weeks ago, I was lucky enough to see the trophy up close, a real honour.

I am deeply saddened to hear of the sudden passing of Hefin David MS.

Hefin was a dedicated and passionate representative for Caerphilly, whose commitment to his community and our Labour movement was evident in everything he did.

Government launches Orgreave inquiry, 40 years after clashes at minersโ€™ strike Move follows decades of campaigning over violent policing and collapsed prosecutions at South Yorkshire coking plant

Iโ€™m so pleased to see the UK Labour Government announce an inquiry into Orgreave.

My dad was there. He saw what happened with his own eyes.

Since being elected in 2019, Iโ€™ve been pushing for this inquiry, and Iโ€™m so glad itโ€™s finally happening.

No family should ever be denied dignity and compassion in the aftermath of such tragedy.

As Minister for Victims & Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls, Iโ€™m committed to ensuring victims & their loved ones are truly heard & supported at every stage of the justice process.

โœ… Offenders would be forced to attend their sentencing, or face extra jail time or prison sanctions
โœ… Parents convicted of serious child sex offences would automatically lose parental rights
โœ… Victims will gain stronger rights, better protections, and improved support
