12:59Now PlayingIn this video, we sit down with the three leading candidates in the Labour deputy leadership race — Bell Ribeiro-Addy, Emily Thornberry, and Paula Barker — as they set out their vision for the future of the party and their role as the Prime Minister’s right-hand person.
Each candidate outlines their policy priorities and the unique perspective they would bring to Labour’s leadership team. Bell Ribeiro-Addy speaks about grassroots activism, tackling inequality, and ensuring that Labour remains connected to the communities it represents. Emily Thornberry highlights her experience on the front bench, her record on foreign policy and justice, and her commitment to defending Labour’s values on the global stage. Paula Barker emphasises workers’ rights, trade unionism, and the need to rebuild trust with working-class voters across the country.
The interviews also explore how the deputy leader would balance supporting the Prime Minister while holding the party together, shaping strategy, and preparing Labour for the challenges of government. From the cost of living crisis to the climate emergency and the future of the NHS, each candidate shares their approach to the issues that matter most to voters.
This video provides a clear and accessible overview of the Labour deputy leadership contest, giving viewers the chance to compare the candidates side by side and hear directly from them about their priorities, experience, and ambitions.
