1 Jul 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryI recently visited Nottingham’s newly opened Rainbow Quarter with Nottingham Pastel Project, who led the effort to create this dedicated space celebrating our city’s LGBTQ+ community and history. [1/3]
1 Jul 2026Culture & CommunitymeasuredFor 10 years, the carnival arts troupe Can Samba has brought joy, colour and music to the streets of Nottingham. After losing their long-term studio space, they need help covering the costs of their new one. If you can help them, please do chip in:
1 Jul 2026EducationmeasuredI met with @uonucu.bsky.social to discuss the impact on members, the lack of proper scrutiny in this process, and the need for a new funding formula for HE. I am in contact with the university leadership and will continue to push for an outcome that protects as many jobs and courses as possible.
1 Jul 2026EducationangryUniversity of Nottingham staff are facing cuts to more than 600 jobs and over 40 courses. This would be devastating for workers, students, and our city, as well as UK research.
30 Jun 2026ImmigrationangryComparing this to the student loan system requires a shocking level of cognitive dissonance and dehumanisation of refugees. [2/2]
30 Jun 2026ImmigrationangryCharging refugees for the support they receive is morally wrong. These are people who have fled war, torture and persecution. In practice, this will lock out the vast majority of refugees from obtaining settled status in the UK. [1/2]
30 Jun 2026Crime & PolicingmeasuredFour arrests have been made, but inquiries remain ongoing. If you have any information at all - especially dash-cam or mobile phone footage - please contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101 quoting incident 749 of 26 June 2026.
30 Jun 2026Crime & PolicingempatheticDevastating news of the attempted murder of a 16 year old boy on Carlton Road. My thoughts are with the victim, who is being treated for potentially life-altering injuries, and his loved ones.
30 Jun 2026Health & NHScelebratoryMany of Nottingham’s harmed and bereaved families have long called for the appointment of a commissioner who will ensure that the voices of women are always heard and hold our maternity services to account. This is the right step forward. [2/2]
30 Jun 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI welcome the news that the government will appoint a maternity commissioner to drive the changes our maternity services urgently need. [1/2]
29 Jun 2026Housing & PlanningcelebratoryToday, the Labour government repealed the Vagrancy Act, ending laws that criminalised rough sleeping and begging for two centuries. It pushed vulnerable people away from support and made it harder to rebuild their lives. This is a vital milestone in working towards ending homelessness altogether.
29 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredThese proposals all need more detail but the change in direction they signal is welcome. There are big questions still left to answer in other areas like migrants' rights, equalities, and foreign policy. I hope that he will also set out his vision in these areas and allow them to be scrutinised.
29 Jun 2026Housing & PlanningmeasuredHe promised the biggest council housebuilding programme since the postwar period, more infrastructure investment and greater devolution powers, as well as commitments to greater control over essential services, and support for young people and struggling high streets.
29 Jun 2026OthermeasuredAndy Burnham’s first policy speech is a significant improvement from the government's current offer.
26 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasuredThe findings from Donna Ockenden’s review into Nottingham University Hospitals Trust have sent shockwaves across the country. I spoke to ITV News about why I support calls for a public inquiry, provided it won’t delay criminal proceedings or stop recommendations being adopted in full.
26 Jun 2026Crime & PolicingmeasuredYou can submit information here: mipp.police.uk/operation/33... or call 101 and ask for Derbyshire Constabulary quoting incident number 589 of 22 June 2026.
26 Jun 2026Crime & PolicingmeasuredDerbyshire Police have arrested two people on suspicion of murder. They are still appealing for those who were at the Nine Ladies Stone Circle last weekend to come forward. Any information you have, no matter how seemingly minor, could be vital.
26 Jun 2026Energy & Net ZeromeasuredEvery second spent debating whether to drill in the North Sea is a precious second we are not spending on advocating for the mitigation and adaptation measures we so desperately need. [4/4]
26 Jun 2026Energy & Net ZeromeasuredA just, worker-led green transition is non-negotiable, but the idea that net-zero is anti-worker is a false dichotomy - one we cannot afford to get trapped in. [3/4]
26 Jun 2026Energy & Net ZeroangryAnd yet there are senior voices within our party - and trade union leaders - advocating for new licences for North Sea oil and gas extraction. It is utterly surreal, short-sighted, and irresponsible in the extreme. [2/4]
26 Jun 2026EnvironmentmeasuredThe heatwave gripping western Europe is the most severe and widespread on record. Scientists are clear that it was only made possible by the climate crisis, driven by fossil fuel burning. [1/4]
25 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredA new Prime Minister alone is not enough. To deliver the change people voted for in 2024, we need a new political direction and a scaling up of ambition. Socialist Campaign Group MPs have set out the basics of what that looks like:
25 Jun 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryI'm glad that it contains equal protections for sexual orientation and gender identity. I'll be working with LGBT+ groups to ensure that the Bill is effective, robust and free from loopholes as it continues its legislative journey. 2/2
25 Jun 2026OthercelebratoryWith the publication of draft legislation to ban conversion practices, the government is finally one step further to fulfilling our manifesto commitment. Well done to the campaigners who have fought for many years to make this happen, and to @oliviabaileymp for bringing forward this Bill. 1/2
24 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasuredLocal MPs will do everything in our power to hold NUH and the regulators to account, and ensure that the government implements these recommendations in full. Our joint statement:
24 Jun 2026Health & NHSempatheticMy thoughts and deepest sympathies are with the 2536 harmed or bereaved families in Donna Ockenden’s review. Behind each number is an entire family that will never be the same again, and individuals who have been utterly failed by the services that were supposed to care for them, often repeatedly.
23 Jun 2026Local GovernmentcelebratoryGreat to join St Ann’s East’s Pride in Place Chair and Vice Chair at an event in Parliament focusing on community engagement and local communications. The Pride in Place programme will invest £20m in St Ann’s over the next decade, putting residents in charge of how the money is spent.
23 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredA coronation of the next Labour leader is not in the best interests of our party or the country. A democratic leadership election would mean that candidates set out their vision and are held accountable to it by our members and trade unions.
23 Jun 2026ImmigrationangryDecades on, victims of the Windrush scandal are still being denied justice. A report found that more than half of compensation claims under the Windrush redress scheme have been rejected - and campaigners are calling for a radical overhaul. I recently signed a letter supporting their demands:
22 Jun 2026Crime & PolicingmeasuredA joint statement from local MPs on the arrests connected to the mortuary at Nottingham University Hospitals Trust.
