This #RoadSafetyWeek, the Government is preparing the biggest overhaul of road safety in over a decade. With 1,600 lives lost each year, action is overdue. A new strategy with stronger protections, better education and smarter infrastructure is coming in the weeks ahead.

Today is #AskHerToStand Day I’m proud to back @5050parliament.bsky.social

Think of 1–3 women who’d make great leaders — and ask them to consider standing.

I planted a poppy in the Speaker’s Garden of Remembrance to honour the courage and sacrifice of our Armed Forces and their families — in Spen Valley, across the UK, and the Commonwealth. We will never forget their service. ❤️🌺 #LestWeForget #WeWillRememberThem

This week I spoke in Parliament about the need for better care & recognition for people living with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (PoTS). Huge thanks to Cat Smith MP for leading this important debate & shining a light on an often-overlooked condition #PoTS #SpenValley

On Friday I joined the panel on BBC Radio4’s #AnyQuestions With challenges both at home and abroad we need leadership that brings people together not pulls them apart. Thanks to Alex Forsyth and my fellow panelists for a respectful debate @bobbywdean.bsky.social, Therese Coffey and David Blair
