I'm pleased to reaffirm my support for strengthening the Hunting Act. Public support for action to combat ongoing fox, stag and hare hunting remains high, with strong, consistent support among voters of all parties and across all regions of the country, including here in Mid Cheshire.

👏 In Mid-Cheshire, residents met with @andrewcooper.net MP to discuss the importance of the Climate and Nature Bill, and to call for stronger action on the climate-nature crisis. 👉 To find out how to book your MP meeting, contact zerohour.uk/contact 🐝 #CANBill

🍵Last week I had a lovely visit to Eleven, one of Mid Cheshire's many brilliant independent businesses. We had a good chat about the challenges facing small hospitality businesses. My column below outlines a few of the Government measures designed to support these types of establishments 👇

Politics should never be about talking at people; it should be about talking with them. Coffee mornings are a key way that I connect with my constituents and I always leave these coffee mornings with pages of notes and a renewed sense of purpose.

This is your vote, your choice. You the members choose your Deputy Leader. Having this conversation is not dissent, but an important conversation about how we can be better. I will be your strong independent voice.

Labour is at its best when we are clear about whose side we are on, and in whose interests we serve, when our values shine through. I want us to be clear that our objective is to lift children out of poverty and that will mean we need to lift the 2 child benefit cap www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

🗞 My column this week focuses on the government's expansion of childcare. I'm passionate about giving every child the best start in life and this column outlines some of the ways that the government is making this happen.

Community groups can apply for grants of up to £5,000 through the Cheshire Police and Crime Commissioner’s SWAP Fund. This fund redirects money seized from criminals back into communities to support positive change. Groups from across Mid Cheshire are more than welcome to apply👇

Our great Deputy Leaders have connected the heart of the Party with the head of the government - that’s what I’ll do. I spoke to @theguardian.com about why I’m standing as a full-time Deputy Leader and how we can succeed and do better: www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

My statement from yesterday👇

As many of you will know SEND education is an issue that is personally important to me. I am committed to delivering better outcomes and life chances for children with SEND. My column this week details how I feel there are better ways to support SEND children👇

👇A few things happening this month in Mid Cheshire

My August newsletter is now live! It was a busy month in the constituency while Parliament has been in recess and I've really enjoyed the chance to speak with as many constituents, local businesses and community groups as possible.

🚨BREAKING NEWS: The Middlewich Eastern Bypass has been approved! I am delighted to announce that this Labour Government has agreed to fund the Middlewich Eastern Bypass. This comes as the result of a great deal of lobbying and meetings with the Government. Please read my full statement below.

Today marks one year since I was elected as the Member of Parliament for Mid Cheshire. I am incredibly grateful to be in this position and I look forward to the next four years working alongside you all - whether you voted for me or not.

I'm happy to announce that I am starting a public monthly newsletter! The aim of this newsletter is to provide a monthly overview of the work I've been doing both in the constituency and in Parliament. Please feel free to subscribe to my Substack - it's completely free.

☕I am hosting a coffee morning this Friday at Middlewich Library. There is no need to book for this event, feel free to just show up on the day. Please arrive 5 minutes early. I look forward to seeing some of you there!

My team and I recently surpassed 6,000 cases opened since I was elected last summer. We are always here to provide support, answer questions about Government policy or raise any issues you may be having with the relevant authorities or ministers. Please never hesitate to get in touch with me.

It's completely correct that this work is "held up" until a solution is proposed that doesn't disadvantage communities along the Mid Cheshire Line.

The towns and surrounding rural areas of Mid Cheshire have a proud heritage - but what does a new plan for the area mean for those living and working there? I spoke to people in Northwich & Mid Cheshire's first MP for 100 years @andrewcooper.net www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... #cheshire #news

Yesterday was #worldenvironmentday and this week is #volunteersweek It is a perfect time to thank all those community groups and individuals who keep Mid Cheshire clean and tidy and protect our streets, verges, green spaces, rivers and canals. The efforts of our volunteers go a long way.

🚂 It was an honour to cut the ribbon on the brilliant new mural at Northwich Station. It was created by local artist Jim Stanley and celebrates the Mid Cheshire line. This is what community rail is all about - residents taking ownership of their stations and helping create a real sense of place.

One of my top priorities as the MP for Mid Cheshire is supporting people into decent, secure employment. That's why I am hosting a jobs fair on June 2nd from 11am to 2pm at Brio Leisure centre in Winsford. This is being held in partnership with Winsford Jobcentre Plus and CWAC. More details👇

What do you think of plans for the new Northwich Market location at Barons Quay? Cheshire West and Cheshire Council are currently holding an online consultation as well as in person events. Make sure you participate and make your voice heard👇

We have launched a fundraising campaign to keep the Danny resilient, operational for future generations and in 1st class condition and compliant with modern regulations. www.justgiving.com/campaign/the... @heritagealliance.bsky.social @iwa-uk.bsky.social @andrewcooper.net

“Just as swimming has been part of the curriculum since 1994, Bikeability Level 2 at Key Stage 2 could be too.” Thank you, @andrewcooper.net, for calling for a smarter, safer education system where cycle training is core—not optional. Let’s embed lifelong skills beyond the classroom.

I do this every year, to the general bemusement of my children.

We were thrilled to receive a visit from MP Andrew Cooper to our service in Winsford. The MP for Mid-Cheshire met with staff and a young care leaver to learn about the challenges faced by young people leaving the care system. The service provides vital skills to help care leavers live independently.

This weekend is the 21st Anniversary since a group of enthusiasts visited the Danny and saved her before she was to be towed away for scrapping, The rest is History. The Danny - raising smiles and creating memories. @heritagelizzie.bsky.social @lsutherland.bsky.social @andrewcooper.net

We are very excited to announce our 2025 cruising season and tickets are now available online at thedanny.co.uk/events We are covering as many destinations as possible from Salford, Liverpool, Birkenhead and Northwich, Anderton Boat Lift. @andrewcooper.net @heritagelizzie.bsky.social #heritage

Mid Cheshire MP @andrewcooper.net raised the Middlewich bypass in PMQs today - the PM said it's going through an assessment process and he'll ensure the MP will get a meeting with the gov minister to discuss. Catch up on the latest on PMQs on the BBC website: www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr...

Perfect sky over Westminster tonight.

Thank you to everyone who has contacted me ahead of the vote on Friday to go on to the next stage in legalising an assisted death for terminally ill adults with less than six months to live. I have decided to vote for the bill.

Sad to wake up to the news about John Prescott this morning. A man who dedicated his life to his country, and was ahead of his time on so many issues. He will be missed by all who knew him.
