WATCH IN FULL: Angela Rayner's speech at the Labour Party conference

Angela Rayner addresses Labour delegates at the party conference, telling them 'now is our moment' as she pledged to bolster workers rights, create high quality homes and strengthen communities.

Rayner, who is also the Housing and Local Government Secretary, outlined her department’s priorities in Government in her opening speech to the Conference delegation in Liverpool.

She described the Government’s Employment Rights Bill, which will face Parliament next month, as “historic legislation” that will “make work more secure” and “ensure rights are enforced and trade unions strengthened”.
