Yvette Cooper: “Starmer had a style of leading the Government that maybe doesn’t necessarily work in politics.”

The government is working on new laws to "drive rogue operators out of the funeral industry".

I’m sorry for the unthinkable pain caused by those historic practices, because what happened to those parents should never have happened and we need to ensure it can never happen again.

Bush's actions were utterly abhorrent, and my thoughts remain with all the bereaved families in Hull who were so badly let down.

On behalf of the government, I want to issue a profound apology to them.
