Common card · No. 487235

The Deputy Leader of the Labour Party is the second-highest ranking politician in the British Labour Party. The current deputy leader is Lucy Powell. In the event of the Labour Party Leader's immediate resignation, the Deputy Leader will serve as Acting Leader until the election of a successor. It is generally expected that the Deputy will act as Leader in the House of Commons in scenarios where the Leader is otherwise unavailable, although this is not always the case.
