Everyone deserves a decent, safe and affordable home. But too many working people can no longer count on this. Changing this feels especially urgent as winter bites and temperatures plummet – all just after the Christmas period when friends and families have come together in celebration. I am proud that this Labour Government is starting the New Year with something to really celebrate – a new dawn for 11 million people renting privately.

Credit: Jacob King/PA Wire This week the Prime Minister said the planning system is a chokehold on the growth that our country needs. He is right. It’s a blockage in our economy so big it obscures our entire future. Indeed it has locked a generation out of the dream of home ownership. It means that many grown-up children are unable to leave their childhood homes and others are left struggling with soaring rents or wondering how they can find a deposit, let alone pay a mortgage. The next...

Through his half a century of public service and a decade as Deputy Prime Minister, John Prescott was driven by his Labour values to serve working people. Fiercely proud of his working class and trade union roots, he never lost sight of who he came into politics to serve. He used the chance he was given to change the lives of millions of working people. Becoming Deputy Prime Minister was the proudest day of his life.

This Government’s mission to build more social housing is a personal mission of mine. When I said I wanted to see a council housing revolution, I meant it. Because I still remember the fear that the place I was raising my young son in could be taken away, and the knowledge a secure home was out of reach. My life, like millions of others, was transformed by council housing. The council house I eventually moved into gave me and my family a chance. It is one I will never forget.

Having started out as a home help for Stockport Council, I feel really proud to now be banging the drum for local government as Deputy Prime Minister. It was a job I loved that showed just how important it is that we have good local services that Mirror readers can rely on. That’s why we’re backing councils to help rebuild our country for working people after some very tough years. That means giving them long-term financial stability, and, finally, ending “Whitehall knows best” meddling.

For 14 years, the Conservatives failed working people by choosing austerity and decline. As a result, public services are crumbling and working people have paid the price. Though we come from different generations and grew up in different parts of Britain, the prime minister and I both saw how politics could make a difference to people from working-class backgrounds like ours. But the country we inherited in July had seen those opportunities denied to too many working families.
