I was delighted to speak to Richard Quest on @cnn.com about the Government's plans to cap ticket resales and put fans first.
The UK has a world-leading live events sector and fans deserve the right to pay a fair price, as is already the case in other countries that have legislated in this way. 1/2

Buzzing that this Labour Government is standing up for fans. Whether you’re on the Kop or going to see your favourite artist, a cap on resale prices means fair tickets at fair prices.
Next stop… surge pricing. 👀🎟️

Activate is a local gem, proud to say it’s one of a few outstanding specialist FE colleges in the country. Their commitment to supporting young people with additional needs is second to none.
Thanks very much to Jane and Ceri for having me and to the wonderful students for such a warm welcome.

This #NCLM25 I'm encouraging care leavers to #TickTheBox on their UCAS form when applying for college or university, to say they've spent time in care.
This will make sure they get the support they're entitled to - from financial assistance to help with wellbeing.

The Simonswood Stink is making residents sick - affecting breathing, closing schools, and forcing kids indoors. No one should have to live like this.

I secured £5,000 for the @MCSoccerSchools through Football for Change. The soccer schools Michael runs across Knowsley are just great.
I loved going to the pitch to hand them their cheque, joined by Lioness legend @liannesanderson and local legends Connor Coady & Toni Duggan.

One of my constituents was horrifically attacked in her own home and nearly lost her life.
Working with the police and the council, we were able to move her to a safe place.

At the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee, we took evidence from Frank Cottrell Boyce & Greg Childs for our inquiry on kids TV.
I asked what would happen to kids TV, who would make it, if we had no BBC…watch Frank’s answer. 📺

Last week was Lorry Week! Paid a visit to local firm JMD Haulage. For 50 years they've been providing good jobs to local people.
Their priority is driver welfare. The stories they told me about the treatment of drivers is shocking,will be raising these issues in Parliament.

Great meeting with @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social to discuss education in Knowsley.
From SEND, to persistent absence, GCSE results, to post 16 education - so many challenges & opportunities that this @uklabour.bsky.social will improve.
