This book is a manifesto for change that showcases new policy ideas for an incoming Labour government.

Organised by the Society of Labour Lawyers, the Labour Party’s legal think tank, the contributors inspire debate about Britain’s future, exploring a wide range of issues from access to justice to family law reform, housing, employment, EU and trade law, asylum and refugee law, immigration and citizenship, international law and constitutional reform.

This book is a must-have collection of new insights into how a Labour government can renew Britain.
