I have co-signed a cross party letter calling on the Chancellor to make this year's Budget a turning point. Our tax system asks too much of working people and too little of extreme wealth. [1/2]

Today is World COPD Day. COPD is common but often missed. Early diagnosis saves lives. If you have ongoing breathlessness, a chronic cough, frequent chest infections or exposure to risk factors, please speak to a health professional.

Today is International Men’s Day, raising awareness of men’s well-being. Thank you to all the brilliant charities working in this field. 👇 [1/2]

I strongly welcome Salford City Council’s decision to exempt terminally ill people from paying council tax. Nobody facing a terminal diagnosis should have to worry about bills or enforcement letters when they should be focusing on their health and loved ones.

Thank you for inviting me to visit @moneywellness.com, it was great to meet the team and hear more about the vital work you do supporting people and families up and down the country. Fantastic to see such an important organisation based in Salford. Keep up the great work!
It was great to welcome @rebeccalongbailey.com MP to our offices today.

We’re looking forward to continuing to work together to make sure people in our local area and nationally can get the right support, at the right time.

I joined cross-Party MPs in signing a motion calling for the Chancellor to abolish the two-child limit in the Autumn Budget. Ending this cruel policy would lift 670,000 people, including 470,000 children, out of severe hardship and transform lives across the UK.

I spoke in Parliament about global tax justice. Multinationals shifting billions through tax havens deprive our hospitals, schools and care services of tens of billions every year. It’s time for transparency, fairness and change.

The Government have committed to consider pre-existing evidence they had not looked at when making their decision on the need for financial redress for 1950s born women due to DWP maladministration of state pension age changes. (1/2)

Today on Armistice Day we remember the courage, sacrifice, and love of those who served, and those who never came home. Their legacy lives on in our peace and our freedom. We will remember them.

Very moving Remembrance Parade and Service in Swinton this morning with members of the community and our Armed Forces, paying our respects to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice to give us our future.

I’ve written with fellow Greater Manchester MPs to Ministers urging fair funding for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS).

GMFRS keeps our region safe, from floods to terror responses, but faces real strain. It’s time for proper national support.

Proud to co-sign this letter to the Chancellor ahead of next month’s budget. The two-child benefit limit is a policy that punishes children for the circumstances of their birth. (1/2)

Pleasure to open the Salford Local Histories Festival at St Thomas Church (Pengy Church) & to present the Frank Mullineux Award to Joe Murray, author of Dirty Old Town. Thank you and well done to the organisers, looking ahead to Salford’s heritage centenary next year! #Salford100
