I’m old enough to remember when CBS News would never have surrendered to a demagogic president or any other politician. Remember Edward R. Murrow?

🎄💚 The festive period isn’t joyful for everyone 💚🎄
If you’re struggling, or supporting someone else who is, help is available.
You’re not failing if you’re finding this time hard. Reaching out- or checking in on someone else- can make a real difference 💚

My last Parliamentary task was a visit by St Helens Primary School.
One of the joys this year has been visiting schools. The children’s enthusiasm & interest along with their thoughtful questions is inspiring.
If anyone says kids don’t care, send them to East London and we’ll prove them wrong!
