I've received loads of casework on driving test issues, so this news is extremely welcome.

It's also an example of how our govt is working hard to practically fix some of the broken mechanisms we inherited.

This morning I joined @chriscurtis94.bsky.social and
@emily4mk.bsky.social in Milton Keynes to mark Armistice Day and lay a wreath in honour of our armed forces.

As the MP for Bletchley, I’m deeply aware of our area's proud legacy. Our history reminds us of the power of service and sacrifice.

As millennial who’s rented since uni & still doesn’t own a home, I know first-hand how tough renting can be.

That’s why I’m proud Labour’s Renters’ Rights Act is now law - ending no-fault evictions & giving renters real (and deserved) security.

Strengthening our trade ties with India, the US and the EU means more growth, jobs and investment in Milton Keynes and North Bucks.

Proud to stand with my old boss as Labour leads Britain back onto the world stage. This is what rebuilding our global partnerships looks like.

Honoured to be interviewed by the thoughtful young minds at The Royal Latin School 📰

Thanks to Georgia, Etungsha & the teachers for the great questions - on life beyond uni and getting involved in democracy.

(And no, I don’t usually read about myself... promise!)

I'm backing Bletchley's future.

This is the difference a Labour government makes.

We don't just talk about building hospitals, we actually build them.

When Mel Stride was Work & Pensions Secretary, welfare spending rose from £298bn to £328bn in real terms.

And under the Tories' watch between 2016 and 2024, the number of civil servants grew by a third from 380k to over 500,000.

There is simply no credibility here.
Mel Stride over the weekend: fiscal discipline is key to how we rebuild the party.

To lead a Labour Government – and a Treasury – you can’t just dismiss the bond markets.

Every pound spent on schools, hospitals & infrastructure depends on credibility with those who lend to the UK. Real change requires fiscal discipline, not wishful thinking.

27 is far too young to die. Jess's death is incredibly unfair, and I have so much respect for Andrea for sharing her story.

Jess's rule aims to improve safety and give patients a greater voice, so we can avoid as many tragedies like hers as possible.

This is the difference a Labour government in power makes.

✅ Day one rights at work
✅ End to fire & rehire
✅ Ban on exploitative zero hours contracts

We’re delivering the biggest boost to workers’ rights in a generation.

Danny Kruger quitting to join Reform UK isn’t just a blow for the Conservatives, but a brutal judgement on Kemi Badenoch’s leadership.

UK politics is now about Labour vs Farage: or as I like to call it, Tories 2.0.

Russian drones in Polish airspace are a stark reminder: our security is shared.

This week I asked how the UK's defence spending will deliver value and strength. We must invest wisely, support allies, and stand firm against aggression.

This #BloodCancerAwarenessMonth, I’m proud to support DKMS in the fight to save lives.

By joining the donor register, we can all play a part. I was personally especially keen to sign up, as donors of African, Caribbean and other black heritage are always in high demand.
