Really proud to share this personal note from the Prime Minister following months of work pushing for new Typhoon orders.
This is more than just a defence deal – it’s jobs, skills and livelihoods here on the Fylde Coast, across Lancashire and the UK.

I was pleased to reaffirm my support for WASPI Campaign's women in Parliament this week. 1950s-born women have waited long enough for justice. Ahead of December’s High Court hearing, I urge Ministers to deliver fair compensation to all those affected.

This money is on top of the £2.86 million I secured earlier this year to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping in 2025/26 – £877,000 of which was for drug and alcohol treatment. It’s part of the Labour Government’s £84 million national package announced today, on World Homeless Day.

Today marks the start of Black History Month, an important time to celebrate the Black community here in Blackpool and beyond.
This year’s theme, ‘Standing Firm in Power and Pride’, is a powerful tribute to the commitment to progress that defines the Black community across the globe.

The Hillsborough Law makes honesty and accountability the rule for every public servant. It puts a legal duty of candour in place – no more cover-ups, no more excuses. Those who mislead the public or refuse to cooperate with investigations will face criminal sanctions.

Labour is delivering the biggest upgrade to workers’ rights in a generation.
For too long, working people have been denied the security, dignity and fairness they deserve. Labour is changing that.
We’re putting workers first and building a Blackpool and Britain that works for everyone. 🌹

Today is Emergency Services Day, and I want to highlight the amazing hard work of emergency services here in Blackpool and right across the country.
From our firefighters, police officers and ambulance crews, to the RNLI and NHS staff, and all those who step up when we need them most.

As the new school year begins, I’m reflecting on the incredible schools I’ve had the privilege of visiting across Blackpool South over the last academic year. Meeting teachers, dedicated classroom staff, school leaders and the young people themselves is truly one of the best parts of being your MP.
