Four people died trying to cross the Channel last night. With family reunion suspended and almost no safe routes for people fleeing conflict, many are left with no choice but to risk dangerous journeys. The new Prime Minister must change course: safe routes save lives.

Any credible 10-year plan must put nature at its heart. @andyburnham.bsky.social, @angelaeagle1.bsky.social and @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social: you now have the opportunity – and the responsibility – to back the action and investment nature needs, and put the UK back on track. We hope you step up.
The good news? We've known the solution for years. Nature underpins everything. Restoring it strengthens our economy, our national security, our food system and public health, while building resilience to drought, floods & wildfires. What's been missing is political will to act at pace and scale.
The Prime Minister, @andyburnham.bsky.social, has spoken about being honest about the challenges we face. So, as we welcome our new Prime Minister and cabinet, let's start there: Nature is disappearing. The climate crisis is accelerating. The UK cannot thrive while both continue unchecked.
I've signed @zero-hour.bsky.social's petition calling on Andy Burnham to Secure Our Future—to meet the UK's climate and nature commitments, pass the Nature + National Security Bill, and reject all new oil and gas. Will you join me? www.zerohour.uk/andy #ClimateEmergency #wildfires #heatwave #nature

A solid majority of Labour members back PR, as do eight of the 11 Labour-affiliated trade unions, and there is a growing caucus of MPs now calling for electoral reform that spans all wings and factions of the party. www.politicshome.com/opinion/arti...
Burnham should take the first steps towards electoral reform in his first 100 days
As Andy Burnham becomes Prime Minister, he does so in a Parliament produced by the most unrepresentative general election result on record.

Launching an independent commission in the first 100 days of his premiership to look at how to make Parliament properly reflect the way the country votes would be a crucial first step towards realising his vision.

Cover-ups thrive when institutions know delay and denial carry fewer consequences than honesty. The Hillsborough Law could begin to change that, but closing Britain’s integrity gap means fixing donations, lobbying, and the voting system. https://www.uglypolitix.com/p/closing-britains-integrity-gap
Ahead of today’s announcement on social care by Andy Burnham, unpaid carers Michael and Joanne shared their experiences on BBC Breakfast, highlighting why the social care system must be fixed to better support unpaid carers and the people they care for.
