As the first MP to raise concerns about Russian interference in the #Brexit referendum, my response to the jailing of Farage’s chum Nathan Gill for taking bribes to work for the Russian regime.

Beautiful. If you fancy a bank holiday stroll, it's well worth a visit.

Walkers can take in the spring colours at Northbrook Park whilst dodging the April showers!

I was proud to be part of this meeting as the next step in the journey to improve local government and make it meaningful and accountable at a local level.
Excellent to see @ExeterCouncil.bsky.social Cllrs give unanimous backing to #Exeter's bid for unitary status tonight. Exeter’s an economic powerhouse & it's vital the city seizes a once in a generation opportunity to take control of its own destiny.

Labour said we’d ban bonuses for water bosses who pollute our rivers, lakes and seas.
