21 May 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredAlongside the other Sunderland MPs, I wrote to the incoming Reform Leader of Sunderland Council regarding worrying comments made by several of his councillors. A full copy of the letter can be seen below 🌹👇
19 May 2026Crime & PolicingcelebratoryI am pleased that Labour has announced a £30 million nationwide crackdown targeting dodgy barber shops, vape stores, mini-marts and sweet shops involved in money laundering. These shops will face raids, closure orders and cash seizures as part of a new drive to clean up Britain’s high streets.🌹🚓
13 May 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryConsecutive Conservative Governments refused to protect fans and our world leading live events sector. I am therefore delighted that the King’s Speech includes plans to introduce a Draft Ticket Tout Ban Bill, an issue I campaigned on as a backbencher since 2010. 🌹🎟️
13 May 2026Technology & DigitalcelebratoryHaving previously campaigned to crack down on ticket touting in the live events sector, I am delighted that the Government is now banning the online bots which have been harvesting driving test slots for resale. 🌹🚗
7 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredBut if you want that, you have to go out and vote for it. There is still time. See here for info on a polling station near you: www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter... 🌹 (4/4)
7 May 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredWe need Labour councillors to be able to continue working with our Labour government to protect and deliver real change for our communities. (3/4)
7 May 2026Local GovernmentcelebratoryOn polling day, I have been out and about in our local area to discuss why it’s so important to vote in our hard working Labour councillors and candidates to prevent the rise of reform and protect the fantastic progress we have made so far. (2/4)
30 Apr 2026Housing & PlanningcelebratoryThis includes banning Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions, ending bidding wars, capping upfront rent, and limiting rent increases. For too long, too many people have lived with the fear of losing their home through no fault of their own. These reforms are about putting that right.
30 Apr 2026Housing & PlanningcelebratoryRenters in my constituency are now better protected, as new laws come into force delivering the biggest upgrade to renters’ rights in over 40 years. Around 5,161 private rental homes locally will benefit from these changes, giving people more security, fairness and stability in their housing.
28 Apr 2026Social CarecelebratoryIt was fantastic to join the team at Holly House Care Home this weekend, to celebrate their Outstanding rating following inspection from the Care Quality Commission. It was a pleasure to meet residents and the hardworking team who are a tribute to this accomplishment and our community in Washington.
27 Apr 2026Local GovernmentcelebratoryCold mornings in Washington this weekend, but a warm reception to myself and Labour councillors on the doorsteps. On May 7th, let's make sure that we elect hardworking Labour councillors who can work in partnership with a Labour Government to deliver for our community. 🌹
27 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryThis Government's commitment to the School Breakfast Club Program is making a real difference to local children's lives by giving them a better start to the day and giving families real support amidst the cost-of-living crisis.
27 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryIt was fantastic to visit Barmston Primary School in Washington on Friday morning, to see their Breakfast Club and meet with staff and students.
23 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryRead my thoughts in full here: www.sunderlandecho.com/news/opinion... (2/2)
23 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI am proud that our renewed women’s health strategy will put women and girls at the heart of our healthcare system. Under this Labour government, women and girls will no longer feel ignored or invalidated by those meant to listen. 🧵(1/2)
14 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryEvery child deserves food that fuels them to learn and grow.
14 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryWe're scrapping high-sugar and deep-fried food from school menus, putting more fruit, vegetables and wholegrains on every child's plate, and launching a new national enforcement system so these standards actually stick. This is one piece of a much bigger jigsaw, but it's an important one.
14 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryYesterday we took the biggest step to overhaul school food in a generation – and I couldn't be prouder. 1 in 3 children are leaving primary school at risk of food-related ill-health. Tooth decay is the leading cause of hospital admissions for children aged 5–9. That is simply not good enough.
9 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryIt was great to speak with both the children and the workers, and to hear more about Gateshead's HAFplus app and the Nutritional Education recipe boxes they are currently using.
9 Apr 2026Cost of LivingcelebratoryI had a lovely time today visiting some of the Holiday Activity and Food programmes in Birtley, to see how the children of Gateshead can spend their Easter holidays making friends, getting some exercise, and not worrying about food in the meantime.
9 Apr 2026EducationcelebratoryIt was great to hear about their path to their apprenticeship, how it works in practice and their hopes for their future with Asda. I wish them the very best for their futures.
9 Apr 2026Jobs & EmploymentmeasuredLast week I visited ASDA Living in Team Valley where I met some of their current apprentices from local stores in my area to hear more about their work and learning and how the ASDA apprenticeship programme benefits them in their career journey.
7 Apr 2026Crime & PolicingcelebratoryNeighbourhood policing was hollowed out under the Tories, with communities like Washington and Gateshead South left without the support we need. So, this is a landmark day: we’re putting officers where they belong - on the beat, and tackling crime.
7 Apr 2026Crime & PolicingcelebratoryTarget made, target hit. Today, Labour has announced that over 3,000 additional neighbourhood police are now in post. And we’ve hit that goal 2 months early.
1 Apr 2026Jobs & EmploymentcelebratoryToday’s boost to the National Minimum Wage and the National Living Wage will give a much needed pay rise to 2.7 million workers. 💷
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI have long supported, and worked with, them from the backbenches and it is therefore an honour to be able to continue this work with them as Minister for Public Health and Prevention.
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryTarget Ovarian Cancer are doing fantastic work to advocate for greater awareness of symptoms to ensure earlier detection, faster diagnosis and higher survival rates.
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI am proud of the progress made by this Government so far to tackle waiting lists so that less ovarian cancer patients are left waiting too long for a diagnosis and treatment.
1 Apr 2026Health & NHScelebratoryI was proud to drop-in to an event last month, hosted by Target Ovarian Cancer, to mark Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. As Minister I am absolutely committed to improving cancer care for patients across England, including those suffering from ovarian cancer and other gynaecological cancers.
27 Mar 2026Economy & Jobs (General)celebratoryThis meeting allowed businesses to ask questions, raise concerns, discuss key challenges or opportunities, and suggest priorities for the Chamber to take forward in the future. It was lovely to see the engagement of these local businesses and to be able to speak with all involved.
