🎉 The Crime and Policing Bill Committee Completed! 🎉 It has been an honour to work with colleagues as we've combed through and considered this Bill - an incredibly vital piece of legislation to strengthen policing and ensure communities are safer, securer, and fairer for all.

To mark #WorldMaternalMentalHealthDay, I joined the Maternal Mental Health Alliance to highlight the need for better perinatal mental health support. With 1 in 4 women facing mental health issues during or after pregnancy, we must ensure timely and adequate care across the UK.

I’m deeply saddened by the loss of our friend, Alderman John O’Brien. He cared deeply about Leigh and worked tirelessly for our borough. A principled man who will be sorely missed. Sending my deepest condolences to his family and friends.

How did a man become so radicalised he saw me - a former charity worker, local Dad, and now MP - as someone who needs to be violently killed? It starts with toxic online culture of fake news, conspiracy theory, and dangerous rhetoric, which is stoked by certain politicians.

In celebration of NABMA’S Love Your Market Campaign, yesterday I was thrilled to be able to highlight in Parliament the vital role local markets play in revitalising our towns and communities, especially the bustling Leigh Market in my area. #LYLM2025 #LeighMarket

Last week we held a 'Meet the Sponsors' event in Parliament. The session, chaired by Jo Platt, heard from the group's sponsors and what they contribute to Greater Manchester as well as strategic priorities for the local and regional economy.

I’ve known Jo Platt for some time, and she’s been a fantastic advocate for those living with MND. She also has a great family who’ve been supportive to our MND Association - Manchester & District Branch branch over the years. Huge thanks to her for supporting MND Campaigns & MND Association with this event.
