Home Secretary Yvette Cooper delivers her speech during the Labour Party Conference, at the ACC Liverpool, September 24, 2024

HOME SECRETARY Yvette Cooper unveiled a range of new measures to prove Labour is “the party of law and order” at its conference today.

Laws are to be introduced to ban ninja swords and protests outside abortion clinics, tackle violence against retail staff and address anti-social behaviour.

Ms Cooper also committed to a “serious debate on immigration,” while branding the Tory and Reform parties anti-police wreckers.
