Volodymyr Zelensky is the democratically elected leader of Ukraine.

He has stood up to the lies and bullying of Putin.

A leader who has put his country first.

Britain stands with Ukraine 🇺🇦

I promised to be a strong voice for the people of #Bassetlaw

I heard their anger when they told me they are fed up with benefits fraud.

They want those who ripped us off during covid pursued and punished

I spoke up and backed the Bill to crack down on fraud, whilst others stayed away

Wes Streeting goes furthest yet for minister on Elon Musk’s posts about Keir Starmer & Jess Phillips on grooming gangs.

“If he wants to roll his sleeves up and actually do something about tackling violence against women and girls, then online platforms, whether X or others, have got role to play”.

The decision to release all funds held in Mineworkers Pension Scheme to retired miners and widows is welcome. This was a scandal that had gone on for too long.

Unfortunately, miners who paid their pension into the BCSSS scheme have missed out

I am backing the campaign to rectify this injustice

MPs have an extraordinary amount of power, walking the corridors of Parliament and accessing public institutions like schools and care homes.

A DBS check will stop those with a Jimmy Saville mentality in their tracks.

This is about building trust, openness, and transparency.

Successive governments have failed on social care. It’s not a shortage of good ideas that’s the problem, but a shortage of good politics.

Today that changes with Louise Casey.

Britain has a social care crisis. Here’s how we’ll work together to fix it 👇🏻

🎄It was a pleasure to visit the Worksop Community Christmas Tree Festival at Worksop Priory.

I was impressed by the quality and wide variety of Christmas trees, but I was also moved by the many messages for lost loved ones at this poignant time.

I drove a hydrogen powered van in Retford this morning!

Local company, Innervated Vehicle Engineering can retrofit vans to run on hydrogen, saving companies thousands due to reduced running costs alongside protecting our environment with zero emissions.

Bassetlaw leading the way again!

A group of local residents visited the Houses of Parliament for the day.

This is the people's palace and I want to fling open the doors for the people of Bassetlaw. If you would like to come on a future trip please email me on jo.white.mp@parliament.uk

In conversation with my lovely friend Gloria De Piero, I go into detail why tackling violence against women & girls is such a personal issue

My experiences give strength and energy to fight for change

It starts with language & ends with violence. It has to stop
