The Labour Party are rallying around in the fight for a fourth term at conference this week. Rachel is in Brighton, speaking to conference on the economy and at a variety of fringe events.

As part of a packed schedule, Rachel is getting her message on the economy, and Labour's positive record in Leeds West by any means.

On Sunday, Rachel was interviewed by Sky News alongside Lucy Powell and Toby Perkins. Later in the day, she sat next to Harriet Harman and Gordon Brown, alongside other Labour PPCs, and asked the Prime Minister about the positive measures Labour have taken to protect small businesses in the economy.

Today, a day when Lord Mandelson declared that "if I can come back, we can come back", Rachel continued her message on the economy. She spoke to the conference on the importance of policies that will see all 18-24 year olds guaranteed work or training, and on the need to challenge the "monopoly money" culture prevalant in banking. Chancellor Alistair Darling also addressed the conference on the dangers of short-termism in the economy.

Still to come for Rachel are events on equality, housing and the future of cities.

Rachel will keep to a punishing schedule over the coming days of conference. She is updating progress on Twitter and Facebook. She is also posting a blog daily on this website and at Progress. Yesterday's blog includes a video of Gordon Brown's speech. The Prime Minister's speech tomorrow should be a stirring call to action, one which will be ringing clear in the ears when Rachel returns to continue the campaign for Labour in Leeds West.
