We have engaged with The Labour Party over many years to develop a transformative plan to revitalise our high streets. If elected, Labour have pledged to deliver measures in Government that will ensure high streets remain at the heart of our communities.
Thank you to Co-operative Party and The Labour Party for helping us bring the experiences of shopworkers to Parliament and working with us over the years to force the Government u-turn in introducing a standalone offence for assaulting a retail worker #FreedomFromFear
Finally. After 10 yrs campaigning on violence against shopworkers by @USDAWUnion The British Retail Consortium (here today with us in Stockton) Co-operative Party The Labour Party & more, Govt has u-turned & accepted Labour's plan to make assault on shopworkers a specific crime.
But still doesn’t go far enough /1
It’s good that government is finally acting to protect shop workers but as Paddy Lillis UsdawUnion point out, thousands of shopworkers have been assaulted, abused and threatened while the Government dithered and delayed. usdaw.org.uk/About-Us/News/…
Success! Violence against shopworkers to be made a standalone offence.
I’m proud to have fought for this in parliament over the last 5.5 years working with UsdawUnion, Co-operative Party, staff and retailers

Another great weekend of campaigning from Usdaw activists out supporting The Labour Party candidates across the country. #VoteLabour
A huge thanks to the UsdawUnion members who joined Stoke-on-Trent Labour out in Birches Head today as we shared the The Labour Party and Co-operative Party plan for safer high streets.
High Streets are the heart of their communities and the more we can do to support them to thrive, the better!
Great day in Cramlington with Emma Foody and UsdawUnion listening to residents ahead of elections for North East Mayor and PCC on May 2nd and a general election later this year. Lots of support for The Labour Party and a mayor who will bring more decision making from London to our region.
Out with UsdawUnion in #StormKathleen this morning!
Talking to people about Usdaw’s Policing Pledge and Labour & @coopparty’s Safer High Streets plan 🌹 Spotted some lovely Spring blooms along the way too!
