Yesterday I joined @samaritans.bsky.social & @counterhate.com to discuss AI’s role in suicide prevention.

Important work is happening—but there’s more to do to keep people safe online.

We’re cracking down on the online bots and bringing in military driving examiners to help tackle the backlog.
1000s of extra tests will be delivered, helping learners get on the road sooner.

65% of Colne Valley voters want to see change in how we tax gambling - I completely agree. That is why I wrote to the Chancellor on this issue.
Gambling costs UK society £1.27 billion a year.
I will continue to raise this topic with the Chancellor.

Like many in our constituency, I love my wood burning stove. It was eye opening to learn more of the unique value they can offer for home heating from the stove industry association.
With Dunsley Heat crafting wood burners in Colne valley, it is important to understand the power of this equipment.

Awaab’s Law comes into force this week.
A landmark step to protect millions of tenants from unsafe housing conditions.
No one should live with dangerous damp, mould, or hazards.
Our changes will give tenants a stronger voice and force landlords to act urgently when lives are at risk.

I welcome the U.S.-brokered ceasefire enabling vital aid to reach Gaza. But border closures still block access.
I asked the Minister: what is the UK doing to ensure aid flows freely and isn’t politicised?
£74M pledged, but civilians can’t wait.

Hospice care is more than you think, it’s about dignity, compassion & being there when it matters most.
I’m proud to support The Kirkwood & Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice. Grateful for the Govt’s funding pledge, but there’s still work to do.
