but angela rayner isn't someone who holds back.n, calling him and his c olleagues " scum" today she repeated the insults. is that really the standard of political debate you want for this country? do you stand by your remarks? i think borisjohnson is a racist, misogynist and homophobic guy, and he needs to apologise for his comments he has made in the past. tories accused her of dragging politics into the gutter and said she should apologise. i will apologise when boris apologises for saying the comments he has made. i will retract that he is scum. so, what does her boss make of that? look, angela said those words. she takes a different approach to me. we have different approaches to how we get our messages across. it is not language that i would have used. you are a courteous man. do you think she should apologise? that is a matter for angela, andrew. but would he order her to say sorry? i wouldn't have used those words, and i will talk to angela about it later on. there have been tensions between sir keir starmer and his deputy b

angela rayner. lots of words for "i - plan. our plan is working. angela rayner. prices are ballooning, they have chosen to take the money that could cover a year's worth of bills out of the pockets of working people. the deputy prime minister has said the solution is for people to work harder. so can he tell us how many days a worker on the minimum wage would have to work this yearin minimum wage would have to work this year in order to afford a night at a luxury hotel, say in crete? if she wants to talk about taxes and easing the burden on the lowest paid, i will remind her, easing the burden on the lowest paid, iwill remind her, whenever a labour party has got into government, the economy has nosedived, unemployment has soared and taxes have gone through the roof. underthis and taxes have gone through the roof. under this government, we cut income tax, saving every worker £1200 each year. we have introduced an extension of the national living wage. we doubled the free childcare for working parents, worth up to £5,000 for every child every year. when labour take

angela rayner: mr. speaker, still no trade deals, and those were the words, and those were the words of their deputy prime minister in his book which he wrote alongside the foreign secretary, the home secretary and the business secretary. and his actions, mr. speaker, speak even louder than those words, because whatever they say, their political choices have made it harder for working families to get by. so can the deputy prime minister tell us how much his universal credit cut and national insurance will take from a worker on 18,000 pounds a year? say a shop worker or a travel agent. >> what i will say to the right honorable lady is that the -- was always meant to be temporary. we paved the way the nearly 12 million workers through this pandemic. we are coming out with rising jobs, rising wages. we would have done none of that if we'd have taken her advice, not come out with lockdowns, labour's got no plan. our plan is working. angela rayner: mr. speaker, lots of words for, i don't know. so let me help

they are obviously headline grabbing and i think angela rayner| grabbing and i think angela rayner knewand try to see if she would apologise. interesting to see andrew marr this morning and get sir keir starmer�*s reaction. he repeated at least three times, that he wouldn't have said it. i think if you want to be a party that shows you want to be a party that shows you want to be a party that shows you want to be government, plain speaking that angela rayner is known for its very important. answering questions directly is extremely important. insulting and imagining it wouldn't be widely reported. keir starmer must be very unhappy this has blown up so very much. it is clear it takes away from what he wants to focus on and he has got amended rules, but it is a party thatis amended rules, but it is a party that is trying to show, i think, at this annual conference, that it is ready for when an election will happen. since we know not on fixed term and is and is and we think we know that an election could happen in a year and a half or so. and if you want to be on a real ready footing, that

yes, of course, a lot of talk about in this from angela rayner l about in this from angela rayner abouteed to do to win over voters. there was a used number of seats they would need to win, notjust in urban areas of course and they will need some rural voters they wanted to win back some of the previous voters that labour had that turn to the conservative party in 2019. this is a really and there is a lot going on in the labour party this week and quite a lot of internal drama that i think is really frustrating people and angela rayner is thinking about this but they really want to be focusing on and what the conservative party is doing, whether it be on managing this current crisis of lorry drivers and supply chains, but also what is happening with inflation and universal credit. but there is lots of internal jostling about and potentially search your summer trying to move back to an electoral college way of voting for leaders as opposed to the one member, one vote will so this is going to be a difficult and difficult conference for the party coming up and notjust in terms of setting o

angela rayner knows exactly what she is doing with this.w up in social housing myself, and for a while was eligible for free school meals, i can understand this sort of language being used. it is not terribly decorous, but it is the way people are speaking. i do not think keir starmer be too worried about it. officially he said have rebuked angela rayner, that is what the report said, but if you remember, tony blair had john prescott who would often shoot from the hip and say things which deliver party membership labour voters would often say, and give a bit of authenticity to tony blair's project, so i am not sure keir starmer will be too worried about this, especially as it has diverted elise some attention from some of the rather more significant and larger problems he has going on at labour party conference.— has going on at labour party conference. . , . ~ ., , ., conference. yeah, dick there was a -unch conference. yeah, dick there was a unch u- conference. yeah, dick there was a punch up involved _ conference. yeah, dick there was a

but his deputy, angela rayner, distracting from his hopeful discipline. tories scum? i think that boris johnson is a racist, misogynist and homophobic guy, and he needs to apologize for his comments he's made in the past. not in the mood to say sorry for calling the tories "scum" at a late—night labour get together. i'll apologize when boris apologises for the comments he's made, i will retract that he is scum. as in classic conference style, the less guarded moments caused the stir. the tories rejected and condemned the remarks. her labour colleagues wouldn't repeat them. yet, what really matters for the long term was what happened in the hall. kier starmer�*s team wanted to overhaul the party's rules to make it harderfor members to get rid of mps and give more power to mps to choose the leader and to crackdown on anti—semitism. i think that's it. and that was it. these mundane—looking pieces of a4 paper tell the story of a significant political moment. kier starmer won. if anyone said to me in the last few days, is it worth it, kier? it is always worth

we'll be back just we'll be backjust before three o'clock when we hear the deputy labour leader angela rayner spake. but first, its witness history. . hi, i'm larry madowo. thank you forjoining me here in washington, dc, for this very special edition of witness history. marking black history month here in the us, we will go back to some important moments in the past from the civil rights era to the present day. coming up, we will hear about the damning 19605 report that told the us it was fundamentally racist. we spend some time at the dance theatre of harlem and we hear from the daughter of an american gi who grew up in germany and has spent her life wrestling with her identity. but first, let's go back to one of the darkest days of the civil rights era. on the 15th of september 1963, the baptist church on 16th street in birmingham, alabama, was packed and ready for sunday service. then a bomb went off and four young girls were killed. sarah rudolph collins survived but her sister, addie mae, didn't. why would somebody put a bomb on our church and kill a little girl? all of them were angels.

the deputy leader angela rayner setting out what she called a new deal for workers that she says a labouruld enact within the first 100 days. i've gotjonathan reynolds with me. he is the shadow secretary of state for work and pensions. let's start with those rule changes, jonathan. this looks like a climb—down from what sir keir was suggesting earlier in the week. no, i would really disagree with that, and as a member of the nec, i'm really happy with where we've got to this morning and i really hope conference is going to back them. i think there was a need in terms of rules that decisions over the last few years have meant to many bits of the labour party has been too inward facing and that was certainly true in terms of how we select our parliamentary candidates. i think people have recognised that. what we're looking at here, i think, is a set of proposals genuinely everyone can get behind. it will be an improvement in how we do things, and i think there will be some real benefits if we do it, so personally very pleased and i would recommend to conference that we adopt them. you said

a standing ovation there for the deputy leader of the labour party, angela rayner, formally kicking offl conference in brighton. and true to form, announcing that plan for a so—called fair pay agreement. our political correspondent is in brighton and she was listening to that speech and we can talk about it with her now. trying to make working life fairer for everyone, helen, is really the thrust of that policy idea? yes. thrust of that policy idea? yes, there was _ thrust of that policy idea? yes, there was quite _ thrust of that policy idea? yes, there was quite a _ thrust of that policy idea? yes, there was quite a lot _ thrust of that policy idea? yes, there was quite a lot of - thrust of that policy idea? 1913 there was quite a lot of different elements in there, wasn't there? so, he will talk about the fair pay agreement which is the flagship element of this green paper that angela rayner talked about. she is of course the shadow secretary for the future of work, not just the deputy leader, this is why it fills on her remit to do. she talked about the fair pay agreement, about how

we have policy today from the deputy leader, angela rayner, talking about worker's rights, somethingffering when the general election comes but that is only part of it and so keir starmer has written a very long essay setting out why he believes what he believes in, but we are yet to see the nuts and bolts of what policy offerings he may have for the electorate and my sense is that we will not get a huge amount of that when he speaks here on wednesday but we will perhaps get a few tidbits of the direction he wants to go in. i am also imagining that there will be am also imagining that there will be a lot of bashing of the government. well, there always is, absolutely. these gatherings at party conferences are a chance for labour to attack the tories on all fronts and vice versa, so you saw that in angela rayner�*s speech today, criticising the government for the wait has handles its response to the coronavirus pandemic, talking about promises that she made if labour were to win power to take steps to avoid contracts being awarded to people with links to the party that was in governme

at the labour party conference, the deputy leader angela rayner

he and his deputy leader, angela rayner, wanted to spend today talking about their plan to set minimumconditions for different sectors, starting with social care. it's about a fair day's pay for a fair day's work and about making sure that work does always pay, and there's a minimum floor, so the unscrupulous employers that are undercutting those that are trying to do the right thing are taken out of the market. but there has been rain on their announcements. the leader was forced to withdraw his plans to give mps and unions more say the members in future leadership contest after he failed to persuade unions to back them and a backlash from the left of the party. the labour leadership should get real. people out there want us addressing the real issues that they are facing in their lives. the threat that they now have to their well—being and the quality of their life. an alternative package of reforms was put to the party's ruling committee, the nec, this morning and passed. the left is still likely to see these as further attempts to de—corbynise the party, but allies of sir keir see

of course it has created huge divisions, he has had to row back on it, there is already talk of angela raynery well in the house of commons earlier this week when she was standing in port said car because the prime minister was away, so it is the two deputies, but this is a headline that is pretty meaningless about taxing private schools. actually, there is a crisis about energy prices and job shortages that we have been talking about, there is a crisis looming for the 5 million families who will lose £200 a week of universal credit, thatis £200 a week of universal credit, that is the sort of thing that the labour party really need to be talking about, not something that may or may not come to fruition. they just don't seem may or may not come to fruition. theyjust don't seem to get it and they have so many opportunities with so much chaos going on around them, and the government fighting on all fronts. this does not seem to me to be the right pitch to take.— be the right pitch to take. nigel, this is your _ be the right pitch to take. nigel, this is your paper, _ be the right pitch to take.

we heard angela rayner today, the deputy leader, talking about worker's rights, putting forward someoffice. it is in your opinion the party going far enough on those fronts? those ideas by angela rayner and also the shadow employment secretary were really good and they have been spending the summer trying to articulated a factor taken in this country that workers have very few rights, particularly compared to say german workers, they can be hired and fired in very precarious situations, their living standards have fallen over the last ten or 12 years, that is good that labour are talking about that. the problem is that now we have got to talk about it, the problem is that the headlines are dominated by the internal struggle that has eclipsed that. it is same with the new deal. ed miliband has some new policies about the climate emergency that would create good, skilled jobs in this country but we are not talking better because the labour party decided to focus on kick your own party rather than set out those plans. a lot of shadow ministers i have spoken to are furious, they are furi

the deputy leader angela rayner gave an crowd—pleasing speech about workers' rights.e things are not negotiable so labour in power will give all workers' rights from day one in theirjobs, sick pay, holiday pay, parental leave and protection against unfair dismissal. but most of the action took place not in the conference floor but behind closed doors. keir starmer has come out of a meeting where he has had to discuss his party reforms, he has had to drop some of his ideas but a significant number will still go ahead to the conference and that is sure to annoy the left wing. under plans in a future leadership contest candidates will need 20% of the members rather than 10%. this may sound procedure but it is highly political. it will have been placed in the last leadership election they will have only been one candidate. and in the previous contest, jeremy corbyn wouldn't have gotten on the ballot. that is why he told them not to support the reforms because it sends the wrong message to voters. if someone is about to lose yourjob because the fellows can have come to an

so angela rayner the deputy leader is up later, she's good to be setting out some flagship policies on pay agreement for starting with social care workers. the idea behind that she will say is that you would bring together employers and employees and they would agree binding levels of wages that would apply across the sector. so employers couldn't undercut those. she's also going to talk about a range of other measures that labour would look to introduce, this one the fair pay agreement they say would they would do within 100 one the fair pay agreement they say would they would do within100 days of forming a labour government. but there are other proposals that would want to put forward, for example banning the practice known as fire and rehire, zero—hour contracts and the right to switch off. as well as statutory sick pay. labour starts to set out its policy of softening. tomorrow marks the end of a political era in germany, as elections take place for a new leader to replace angela merkel as chancellor after 16 years. climate change has been a big issue during the campaign, with acti

angela rayner says it looks like the conservative party doesn't care about working people and the deputy response that through dominic raab says we are in a time of rising wages and employment. the government has paid the rages of 12 million people on furlough and it can't do that indefinitely. the universal credit up indefinitely. the universal credit up lift was only supposed to be temporary but there is concern about the impact of all of these things and how that is going to work together, going forward. i don't think that concern is going to go away at westminster for some time. thank you helen. a court injunction has been granted against protestors who've been causing chaos on the m25. climate change activists from a group called insulate britain have blocked parts of the motorway several times in the last few days and could now face imprisonment as a result of the ruling by a high courtjudge. let's speak to our home and legal correspondent dominic casciani. dominic, just talk us through this injunction and what it means. yes. injunction and what it means. yes, that is right- _ inju
