The BAME Labour Executive and Labour Party hosted a reception for members, supporters, MPs, Councillors and Parliamentary Candidates this evening. The event was attended by over 150 people from across the country – from Bradford to Plymouth. I spoke about the important role our BAME members will play in the General Election campaign and how it is only the Labour party speaking up for BAME communities. And when it comes to representation Labour has more BAME MPs than the other parties put together but we still aspire to do better and be more representative of the general population.
