Today we remember John Smith who died thirty years ago. I remember being with him the night before he died when he ended his speech with "all we ask is the opportunity to serve." John's whole life was a testimony to the nobility of public service.

Three decades ago I climbed the stairs in my Soho office and someone came running to tell me John Smith had died: a man I had organised a @UKLabour Gala Dinner for the night before. It's hard to describe those days which followed. That's how history works. Twists and turns.

Thank you for all your lovely messages. What an incredible, special day spent with family & friends. Especially my amazing parents who came here as Indian Muslim immigrants & worked so very hard. It is genuinely the honour of my life to join the House of Lords as a Labour peer.

“This is a Government whose economic policy is in tatters, whose credibility is blown, whose incompetence has been exposed”. Today we kick off our reflections of John Smith - to mark the 30th anniversary of his death - with his response to Black Wednesday in Sept 1992

Sunak at PMQs confirms his policy to abolish NI at a cost of £46bn a year, but he says he doesn’t need to lay out how he will pay for it. I’m not sure that’s going to wash given it can only be paid for by increasing the pension age, massive income tax rises or slashing the NHS.

The return of John Swinney is about putting the interests of the SNP before Scotland - only Scottish Labour can deliver the change Scotland needs.
