In the first session of Parliament, Labour passed 50 new pieces of legislation, each of which fulfilled our manifesto commitment to turn the page and build the foundations of change for working people, including:

• The Employment Rights Act, the biggest upgrade to workers’ rights in a generation
• The Passenger Public Services (Public Ownership) Act, establishing Great British Rail – a publicly owned and accountable body to bring the railways into public ownership, improve rail services and keep fares low
• The Great British Energy Act, establishing a publicly owned organisation to bring clean energy and cheaper bills to British consumers and industry
• The Renters Rights Act, providing renters with security and dignity in housing by outlawing no-fault evictions amongst other protections for private renters
• The Removal of Two Child Limit Act, lifting 450,000 children out of poverty and providing security to working families by removing the arbitrary two-child benefit cap
• The Water (Special Measures) Act, cleaning up our rivers and waterways – reversing the Tory decline in environmental standards by ensuring accountability in the water industry and holding water bosses to account
• The Crime and Policing Act, tackling violence against women and girls, anti- social behaviour and retail crime, and rebuilding public confidence in policing and the wider criminal justice system
• The English Devolution and Community Empowerment Act, making good on our promise to give back control to local communities and provide mayors with new powers to deliver growth.

Labour is on your side 🌹
