I want residents to be aware that I have received threats of death and violence directly posted in response to a misleading video recently shared by the MP for Keighley and Ilkley, Robbie Moore. See my full statement below:

It was a privilege to attend the international energy conference yesterday hosted by IEA & the inspiring @edmilibandmp.bsky.social Great speech by the Prime Minister. Britain is committed to energy security through net zero for our future generations 🇬🇧 🌎 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

I am absolutely honoured to become ambassador for @leedswomensaid.bsky.social Nik and her team are an absolute inspiration and I’m looking forward to learning more from them; championing and supporting them, on our mission to halve violence against women and girls

Some elements of this job are joyful. Meeting people like Liz, who have the vision, passion and just GSD. Today she and her team made girls rugby in Otley a reality, for the first game. It was a privilege to be there and to see and feel what they have created. Here’s to many more games! 🏉

Beautiful morning at #SurpriseView for the raising of the Easter Cross, what a day to raise it ☀️ and a brilliant effort from all the organisers and volunteers

Great to be out in Yeadon again this afternoon for #NationalCampaignWeekend, hearing about housing and buses. Talking to people F2F is such a brilliant tonic. And I enjoyed meeting some lovely cats 🐈‍⬛ The weather held out so there was no need for the trusty Labour brolly this week ☂️

What are Labour doing for pensioners? We've just run the most successful Pension Credit campaign in history signing 50,000 more people up for support. Let's take a look at some charts 👇

Yesterday I spoke in the house around the smart phone free bill introduced by the brilliant Josh MacAllister. Proud to work with him & colleagues. It was an important step and there was good cross party agreement. Looking forward hearing more from the Professor Whitty and taking further action.

Happy World Book Day 📚 great to hear Education Secretary pick a Yorkshire classic 👌🏻 Think I fell in love with reading later in life & its such a source of joy - I read Circe 2x. Went to the event in Parliament this week - such a great initiative, anything we can do foster a love of reading 📕

bit.ly/3XeVCkf The Sunday Times just called it “the most important document you’ll never read,” but today’s Carbon Budget is a big deal. I've recorded a video on what it is and what it means. Watch below and let me know what you think ⬇️

www.cbi.org.uk/articles/gro... The net zero economy grew by 10% in 2024 and generated £83bn for econ CBI found 22,000 net zero businesses, from renewable energy to green finance, employ almost a million people in FT jobs. The ave wage in the businesses was also £5,600 higher than the nat ave.

Labour promised 2 million extra appointments within a year of the election. NHS England statistics released today show we delivered on that promise in just 5 months. Fixing our public services after the state the Tories left them in will take time, but this is the change the country voted for 🌹

The first duty of any government is to protect its citizens. The Tories failed to maintain our flood defences putting lives and livelihoods at risk. Labour is investing a record £2.65bn to upgrade and build defences to protect communities. www.ft.com/content/4d8a...

www.theguardian.com/music/2025/f... Absolutely great to see. Moons is such a brilliant business who I highlighted in my maiden speech. A company who’ve navigated generations & continue produce gorgeous fabrics. It was a pleasure to visit the factory. Now I just need one of those caps 🧢!

Today I signed the Book of Commitment provided by @het.org.uk and lit a candle this evening with the Holocaust Rememberance Trust. We must never forget the Holocaust or the victims. Never Again must always mean, Never Again. #holocaustmemorialday #lightthedarkness

Since announcing my diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer a few weeks ago I’ve become increasingly aware of how misunderstood the condition is. So I want to debunk a few misconceptions: 1/7 (short posts!)

Fantastic evening at Guiseley Theatre with sell out guest @torstenbell.bsky.social talking through some aspects of his brilliant book, copies provided by the best book shop @bksotsquare.bsky.social Gave us all a boost this evening 💪🏻🌹

Kemi Badenoch mentioned how much the UK's debt interest is costing us. She's right, it's becoming crippling. And a very substantial portion of that debt was added to the UK government's balance sheet during the Conservatives' period in office. UK debt 2010: £1trn UK debt 2024: £2.8178trn

Missing my morning updates from the excellent Jack and Sam’s podcast. Was a great round up of events to start the day. Please bring it back soon @samcoatessky.bsky.social

Had the best six months with my room mate @torstenbell.bsky.social hoping he comes back to visit us lots but wishing him well in his new role as Pensions Minister. Will be an incredible asset to Government, he’s one of smartest and nicest people I know.

All day I’ve kept thinking of the words of John Valliant on the Today programme this morning - that nature has a 51% share in anything we own. Terrifying scenes in 🇺🇸 right now but sadly not out of sink or expectations of #climatechange #LAfires 💚🌎 www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/serie...

I’ll be voting for the Children’s Wellbeing bill tonight

The Education Committee has launched an inquiry on 'Solving the SEND Crisis'. We are keen to hear from constituents and organisations alike - evidence can be in text, audio or video form. The deadline is January 30th. Please follow the link to submit: committees.parliament.uk/work/8684/so...

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 👇🏻 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Since the general election, we’ve hit the ground running on the NHS: ending doctors’ strikes, starting to cut waiting lists, investing in GPs, hospices… A lot done, a hell of a lot more to do. But as I look to 2025, I can see the road to recovery. www.thetimes.com/article/ac0c...

Today Stephen Kinnock and I announce the biggest funding for hospices in a generation: £100 million for improving buildings, kit and technology £26 million grant for children and young people’s hospices An early Christmas present for hospices that do a wonderful job for families.

Today is the final day to book your winter vaccines online, through the NHS App or 119. This is the most convenient way to book your vaccines. For options of how you can book your vaccines after this please visit nhs.uk/wintervaccin...

If I was picking person of the year, without a shadow of a doubt, it would be Gisele Pelicot. She has and will change things around the world.

Managed to visit multiple businesses in 4 parts of the constituency today and going home with a haul inc: 🌭 Brian’s Bangers in Yeadon 🧤 Gloves & cards from Flippin Eck in Guiseley 📚 Books from Otley BookShop ❤️ 🧁 Bread & cakes from new Horsforth bakery Crustia #smallbusinessSaturday

Here's what delivering change means in concrete terms - a richer, safer, cleaner country. But we need to deliver it for another reason. To show that fatalism is misplaced, that mainstream politics and government can make a difference, and that tomorrow can be better than today

First post from @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social and an important one. We all know as a country we’re getting unhealthier. Supporting our children to make healthier choices is surely a no brainer. Great to see this election promise being delivered.

On the first day of #Christmas I went to the brilliant #Yeadon Christmas light switch on complete with donut pops and a tractor parade - only in Yorkshire! 🎄 🚜 🍩

Quite a day. I’ve been heartened by the spirit of the debate. The engagement I’ve had from all sides in my constituency has been both compassionate & constructive. In the Commons the tone set by @kimleadbeatermp.bsky.social has been both brave and friendly. Glad we’re moving forward.

Great to see these impressive Yorkshire women today, at launch of Lou Haigh’s integrated transport plan. Ace she chose to do it in #Leeds & totally agree with her that the North is less than sum of its parts because of our transport - time to unlock that potential 🚌🚲 www.gov.uk/government/c... 🚌 🚲

It was lovely to join the Mindfulness Initiative last night to see ex colleagues and hear an array of powerful speakers on impact of mindfulness in schools and managing tech including Esther Ghey, one of the most dignified and impressive campaigners I’ve ever met @charlotte2153.bsky.social

We could all be injured, made redundant, or leave work for reasons beyond our control. Help to get back on your feet must be first class and help you back into the best job possible. That matters for individuals and for productivity & sustainable growth. www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

When it comes to climate & nature, we have a choice: ignore the problem or embrace green opportunities that will strengthen our nation's security & long-term prosperity. I’m proud the PM is seizing this opportunity. In case you missed it, here’s what the UK announced at #COP29

My first post on here. Sorry it’s about the passing of John Prescott, an original champion of an international climate agreement back in Kyoto in 1997 🇯🇵 He left an impression on everyone he met. Years later, my 1st interaction w the Chinese climate negotiator: all he wanted to talk about was John!
