Labour Member of Parliament for Redditch and the Villages • Proud dad • Villa fan • Please send all casework to [email protected]
Joined January 2009
I met with the Minister for Skills, @Jacqui_Smith1 ,today for National Apprenticeship Week #NAW2025. This week, the government announced new measures to unlock tens of thousands of apprenticeships, cut provider admin, create a one-stop shop app, and get Britain rebuilding its infrastructure. It was also a great opportunity to highlight some excellent schemes in Redditch and the Villages.

Thank you for your hard work Jack in ensuring we get great coverage!
1 year ago today, I attended my first Redditch United match in the Worcestershire Senior cup semi-final, where we eventually lost to Alvechurch on penalties. Now I have the privilege of working with the club, alongside some fantastic people 🙌

Shocking stats from @Girlguiding's Girls' Attitudes report: 1 in 8 girls have received sexual threats online, and a quarter have seen sexualised deepfakes of friends or teachers. On Safer Internet Day, I stand with Girlguiding in calling for stronger protections & better education.

Great to visit @AluproUK to discuss their impressive work driving aluminium recycling & creating a circular economy. I’ll be raising questions in Parliament on Deposit Return Schemes & Extended Producer Responsibility to boost recycling & support local jobs.

Rugby should be for everyone. In Westminster Hall, I highlighted how moving England Six Nations games behind paywalls halved viewership—from 4-5M to just 2M. With matches now averaging 8M viewers, we must keep them accessible to grow the game and inspire future generations.

Over 500,000 cancer patients in England have waited over two months for vital care. On World Cancer Day, I joined @RTherapy4Life to demand urgent investment in radiotherapy & faster treatment. 1 in 2 of us will face cancer—we must act now to save lives.

17 people in Redditch are diagnosed with leukaemia each year—yet survival rates remain too low. On World Cancer Day, I joined @LeukUK to push for action. We need a National Cancer Strategy that prioritises leukaemia, improves survival rates & supports those affected.
