Labour and Co-operative Member of Parliament for Nottingham North and Kimberley | Minister of State at the Home Office
It’s finally here – work has started to revitalise Bulwell Bogs and the market. I’m incredibly proud to have fought for this money as a local MP and to have been responsible for delivering it as a government minister.

Last week, Labour announced £9bn to renew Armed Forces family housing across the country; the biggest investment in more than 50 years.

Now we’re ramping up investment into new VALOUR hubs, which will support 2,865 veterans right here in Nottingham North and Kimberley.

This City Council budget is investing in frontline services, thanks to leadership from a Labour council and a Labour government.

You can have your say in-person session at Bulwell Riverside tomorrow, 12 pm-1.15 pm, or online on the 25th. Details below:

This Armistice Day we pause to remember all those who have died serving our country, and to express our gratitude to those who serve today.

I'm delighted that Mayor Claire Ward has secured an additional £19 million of government funding to build more than 750 homes in the region. This funding will help deliver the high-quality homes that people need and bring brownfield land back into use.

Last week I had the pleasure of visiting the site of the new Kimberley Hub, where building work is progressing quickly. Thanks to the hard work of Kimberley Town Council and Broxtowe Borough Council for getting this government funding spent on creating a valuable community asset.

Too many people have been sold a dream that if they come to this country, they will be housed in a hotel and be able to work illegally. We have to break this model. As part of this, we have carried largest enforcement crackdown on illegal working since records began.

I know that securing Britain’s borders is important to you, and it’s a priority for this Labour government. I told Sky News how we are ramping up raids against employers who are using illegal workers, and pushing for stronger rules to deport foreign criminals.

I'm really proud of the Renter’s Rights Bill and today it is finally in force. Life will be better for renters in Nottingham and Kimberley, with no more fixed term tenancies and no more no-fault evictions. This is the difference a Labour government makes.

This government is committed to helping everyone who can work to find work. Last week I dropped into the Bulwell Jobcentre to meet the new service leader and talk about how we can work together to help people in Nottingham and Kimberley.

Labour are ramping up processing for asylum seekers, so that those in legitimate need can move on to rebuilding their lives, and those with no claim are returned as quickly as possible.

Macmillan coffee mornings are always a brilliant way to enjoy a chat, some cake, and raise money for a good cause - it was great to drop into Kimberley Library’s last month. If you’d like to donate, you can at bit.ly/4nVkGYS.

Recently, I had a chance to meet with the Romanian Roma community in Nottingham. It was really valuable to hear about the challenges they face and their ideas for how local services could better support them.

This week, Nottingham Women’s Centre are fundraising to provide life-changing counselling and help support women in Nottingham when they need it most.

From now until the 15th of October, your donation will be doubled. You can find out more and donate at ow.ly/VAOj50X2g1Q

At last week’s Labour Conference I visited some stalls that constituents had encouraged me to, to hear about their priorities and give them my support.

Recently I joined local residents, councillors and staff for a walk around Southglade Park. It’s always a beautiful walk, and we had a chance to pick up a few opportunities for improvements around the park.

Last week I visited Royal Mail’s Bulwell delivery office. It was great to be shown around and see how they organise the huge amount of deliveries they get every day, and to have a chat about plans to deal with nearby parking issues.

🚨Huge news for Aspley!🚨

The Labour government has announced £20 million of investment into Aspley over the next ten years!

The best bit? Local people and businesses in Aspley will be the ones who decide how this is spent in their community, not Westminster or Whitehall.

I was on East Midlands Politics on Sunday talking about my new role in the Home Office.

By delivering a returns agreement with France and removing tens of thousands of people with no valid claim to be here, Labour is removing incentives for people to come here in small boats.
September 23, 2025 at 2:02 PM
Today Labour is introducing the Hillsborough Law, putting a duty of candour on public officials, and expanding legal aid for bereaved families.

This is for the 97, their families who fought for justice, and everyone who has been let down by the state, from Windrush to Grenfell.

For my first time at the despatch box as Minister for Border Security and Asylum, I sent a clear message to rogue employers.

We will not allow you to hire illegal migrants at the expense of British workers.

Update on my campaign for better phone signal in Kimberley

A huge thank you to everyone who filled in my Kimberley phone signal survey. I took that to VodafoneThree and won a commitment from them to upgrade their infrastructure. More updates after I meet O2 and EE this week!

Yesterday I visited Torridge to see how communities there are investing over £20m from the government including transforming The Globe Hotel into a community training centre and modernising Bideford Pannier Market.
September 5, 2025 at 10:52 AM
Really great to see that Mayor Claire is choosing to invest in our community. I’ll be working with local community groups and local residents to get the best out of it for the area.

I was honoured to be the special guest at the Midlands Nepali Mela last month. It was a fantastic occasion to celebrate the contributions of the Nepali community to our city and I was blown away by the hospitality I was shown.
