Great news! The new lifts at Warwick Station are finally open! A meaningful upgrade for thousands of travellers—thanks to the tireless work of Cllr John Holland. With over half a million passengers last year, this will help thousands travelling by train

It’s National Curry Week! Warwick & Leamington are packed with renowned curry houses serving authentic, award-winning dishes.
I dropped by Warwick Spice to mark their upcoming 25th anniversary, so why not support local businesses and enjoy a great curry this weekend.

Further to the letter I posted on 4th October, I am pleased to include additional signatories from faith and community leaders in Warwick and Leamington.
Last week's deplorable attack on members of the Jewish community have no place in the UK. We stand in solidarity with those all those affected.

While JLR faced financial meltdown after a cyber-attack, Reform UK’s County Council Leader didn’t meet with them once.
No support, no leadership.
Instead, just posts about flags, ‘woke’ sixth forms & party politics. Those affected by this cyber-attack deserve better.

Again, Kemi Badenoch has made a decision that flies in the face of economic logic and public opinion.
The UK must continue to lead the green transition, not abandon it.
That’s why I’ve written to the SoS, urging him to double down on the UK’s commitment to the green transition.

In the wake of Thursday’s appalling attack on the Heaton Park Synagogue, I join with faith and community leaders from across Warwick and Leamington to stand in solidarity with our Jewish neighbours.
Hate has no place in our society. We must always speak out against it.

Reform UK has removed the Ukrainian flag from Warwickshire County Council’s head office.
It’s a blinkered and shameful decision. Standing with those displaced by war isn’t optional, it is a moral obligation.
Reform should stand with Ukraine and reverse this disgraceful decision

I want to thank the organisations that met with me at this year’s Labour Conference🌹
It was great to hear about the vital work that organisations like Guide Dogs UK, National Grid, and the Motability Scheme are doing to support communities in Warwick and Leamington.

Earlier this year, Farage said Jaguar Land Rover “deserved” to go bust. Ignorant and deeply damaging nonsense.
Now, after a crippling cyber-attack, thousands of workers across the UK are affected.
I’ve written to the Government and asked Reform UK’s Cllr Finch what support he’s offering.

Wishing the best of luck to those receiving GCSE & Level 1/2 VTQ results
You've worked hard & I hope you get the results you need for your next steps
If today doesn't go as hoped, it doesn't define you. There's support out there to help. Take your time. Do your research. Good luck!

Today is VJ Day & the 80th anniversary of the day Japan surrendered in 1945, which ended WW2.
It was a particularly dreadful conflict – one that is often forgotten. Today we remember those who fought to defend our freedoms and the many who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Welcome announcement from the Government on further support for those wishing to purchase EVs.
We know that the uptake of EVs needs to rapidly increase and grants like this have an important role to play in supporting those who want to make the switch and making it more affordable.
Good work.

Simply to wish a happy Canada Day to all Canadians!
I’m the proud son of a Canadian immigrant and now Chair the APPG on Canada in Parliament. This last year has been a significant one for the country with its leadership of the G7 at such an important time.

From Aston Martin to AI, Jaguar Land Rover to Wind offshore around our islands, the opportunities are boundless.
But needs a cross-Government approach to deliver.
