The government is to ditch its flagship policy from the workers' rights bill, removing the right to protection from unfair dismissal from the first day of employment and replacing it with a six-month threshold.

Throughout her life, Senon, who styled herself as an "eternal rebel", never gave up fighting for women's rights.

Angela Rayner, stamp duty dodge, forced her to quit. That was the starter pistol on Starmer's circus. If the Deputy PM can't keep her own tax affairs straight, what chance has she got running the country!? Rogues gallery And the chaos doesn't begin and end with Rayner's tax fiddle. Andrew Gwynne, booted out for racist and sexist filth in his messages. Rushanara Ali, kicked out after shafting her tenant. Louise Haigh's fraud conviction from years back, exposed.

Keir Starmer has sought to tighten his grip on his government with a wave of junior ministerial changes that has sidelined allies of the unions, raising questions over the future of Labour's workers' rights package. The reshuffle has been used by Downing Street to signal a tougher stance on immigration in an apparent bid to take on Reform UK, with Shabana Mahmood a self-described social conservative rising star now in charge of the Home Office,
