I have co-signed Grahame Morris MP’s letter to the Rt Hon Darren Jones MP, Chief Secretary to the Treasury, calling for urgent action to address the unfairness faced by members of the British Coal Staff Superannuation Scheme (BCSSS).

Thanks to the Labour government’s historic decision to transfer the £1.5 billion Mineworkers’ Pension Scheme reserve, around 1,500 former miners and their families have already seen a much-needed boost to their pensions.

I am urging the government to:

✅Waive the final £2.3 billion payment from the BCSSS reserve, thereby ensuring fairer pensions for members who served in essential roles within the coal industry.

It’s time to deliver parity for everyone in our coalfield communities

Twenty years on from the 7/7 attacks, we remember all those whose lives were lost and those whose lives were changed forever.

We honour the bravery of the first responders, and the strength of the survivors.

Those who try to divide us will always fail.

🌳 Picnic in the Park in Coalville 🌳

It was great to see so many families, community groups, and local performers come together to enjoy the live music and brilliant stalls.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped organise the day and to all the volunteers who made it such a success. Already looking forward to next year!Image attachmentImage attachment+1Image attachment
