Labour’s £25bn investment shows commitment to ensuring everyone has access to the NHS when needed, without financial worries. Meanwhile, Reform said they are “open to anything” when it comes to replacing our NHS with an insurance-based model.

As I said here…we need complete equality between offline and online worlds our laws and our behaviour as a society. It’s our country, society, standards, & we should make sure the internet is not a Wild West, & is safe for our young people.
I think people should NOT be able to say or do things online that they can’t in public/offline E.g. - Children buying knives - Threatening words & behaviour - Malicious communications - Libel/slander/defamation - Children accessing pornography - Sites promoting suicide Etc Agree?

Thank you to everyone who attended this week's consultation workshop in Rugby about the government’s 10 year health plan. After 14 years of Tory neglect, there are many problems - whether it’s long GP wait times, delays at A&E, or other care challenges. It’s time for change.

Supporting municipally-run galleries boosts our economy, showcases talent, strengthens community ties, and inspires future generations. Last week, I visited @RugbyGallery and met amazing local artists and creative entrepreneurs at Art at the Alex. Let's champion the arts! 🎨

This February marks three years since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. I reflect on the UK’s unwavering support and the incredible local effort here in Warwickshire, where over 1,300 refugees have been welcomed. Read more here 👉 #SupportUkraine

Today is #TimeToTalk Day. Too many people hide how they feel, afraid of being judged—that’s got to change. Start a conversation today. Ask someone, “How are you feeling, really?” and take the time to listen. It could make all the difference. More info:

Enough of partisan theatrics! The US-UK bond is built on shared values, mutual respect, and real defence & diplomacy—not hyperbole. We deserve a bipartisan relationship that secures our future!

I’ve acted as councillor & MP to tackle unsafe school streets. At Eastlands Primary, smart parking orders, crossing patrols, and innovative initiatives (like Cemex-funded signs) are easing congestion and boosting safety. #SchoolSafety #CommunityAction

Millions of workers are set for a pay boost in April that will improve living standards and drive growth in all corners of the country. This Labour government is on the side of working people.
