It was an honour to join MPs from across all parties in the Commons to mark 75 years since the rebuilding of the Chamber, following its destruction by bombing during the Second World War.
A lasting reminder of Britain's resilience and renewal in the face of adversity.

It was a privilege to lay a wreath at Ferryhill Town Hall for the Armistice Day service.
Along with the Mayor, councillors and local school pupils, we remembered the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.
Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Today at #PMQs I raised Reform’s appalling record on Durham County Council since they took office.
Their latest action is to cancel events that contribute greatly to our local economy.
Chaos and incompetence. County Durham deserves better.

The North East will receive £1.5 million additional funding to strengthen homelessness prevention and expand mental health support across our region.
Homelessness doubled under the Tories, we’re fixing the mess and rebuilding the system so it protects people, not abandons them.
