As you may have seen in today's news, Doreen Lawrence is to be made a Labour Peer.
The Stephen Lawrence Centre, opened in memory of Doreen's son who was tragically murdered in a racist attack in 1993, is situated in my constituency and I have had the pleasure of meeting and working with Doreen on many occasions.
I can't think of a more worthy person to receive this honour. Doreen has fought an exceptional campaign for justice and has all the very best qualities to fit her for a role in the House of Lords. I look forward to welcoming her into the Labour family in Parliament.
