Labour leader Keir Starmer paid a visit to Bootle as his party's conference in Liverpool got into full swing.
Having opened the conference with a tribute to the late Queen, the party leader took time away to visit residents in Bootle with shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves. The pair were visiting a social housing site that has been the subject of an insulation project.
The houses are some of those to have benefitted from a £60m investment by the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority aimed at retrofitting homes and enabling homeowners to buy solar panels and battery storage to cut down their bills.
