I am delighted this new state-of-the-art youth centre is moving ahead with funding worth £1.1 million. 4YP’s project will deliver a dedicated, safe space for young people in our town. It is an investment in Ipswich's future.

I have written to Suffolk County Council to ensure they postpone all non-emergency works in Ipswich during the repairs to the Orwell Bridge. This includes the planned schemes on Nacton Road, Woodbridge Road and the Hospital to Waterfront route.

I have joined other MPs in writing to Suffolk County Council, urging them to postpone their decision to take over Suffolk Libraries. We believe Suffolk County Council should hold a public consultation so people have a proper opportunity to raise their opinions and concerns.

Having different opinions on @lbc.co.uk is fine, but any self-respecting media organisation should draw the line at allowing presenters to present lies as facts.

Oh blimey he’s got Peter Hitchens on now 🤮#LBC

#pmq. If that Tory gets any redder his head is going to blow off

Great caller Brian just now 👏👏👏#LBC

Great call from Alison ( Bury st Edmunds ) @LBC #LBC

I was proud to support a 6.7% pay rise for 1000s of social care workers. Our Government will go further: the Employment Rights Bill will establish an Adult Social Care Negotiating Body to ensure a fair deal for people in Ipswich and beyond who make such an important contribution to our community.

As Honest Bob Jenrick tours the country repeating far-right conspiracy talking points about “two-tier sentencing”, here is the letter his own government sent to the Sentencing Council last year approving the very Guidelines he now claims are evidence of “two-tier Keir”. The man is a fraud.

#LBC. Ross Clark whining to Vanessa Feltz 🤮🤮

Dear BBC the USA is not ‘stepping up pressure on Ukraine to agree a peace deal’. It is taking Russia’s side in the war.

#LBC. Why are the likes of Ferrari and sister Johnson so worked up about children receiving help in dental care ?

Ferrari pretending he doesn’t know that Trump representative leant on Romanian judiciary to relax travel restrictions for the Tates #LBC

The Windrush Generation has left a deep and lasting impact on our town, which we should all be proud to inherit. I'm delighted our Government has granted Ipswich Windrush Society £20,000 to celebrate this legacy.

The Budapest memorandum of 1994 explained by none other than Marco Rubio.

#LBC oh that horrible Andrew from Halifax🤮

Meet Laurence Bradley , your Labour candidate for the Rushmere St Andrew bye election tomorrow . He is a local man, in touch with the community and ready to work hard for you . Polling starts tomorrow at 7 am.

'State capture of America's government is underway.' @simonmarksfsn.bsky.social says the President and his 'de-facto Prime Minister' Elon Musk are 'engaging in a wholesale revolution'.

🦷 15,500 desperately needed dental appointments for our area, delivering on the promise we made. Combined with the important work being undertaken at the University of Suffolk Dental CIC, I hope we will soon be able to put an end to our county’s dental desert.

Stop shouting Jane #lbc

Listening to Nick Ferrari on @lbc.co.uk Wow, it's like Russia Today sponsored by FOX News has fully taken over. What a disgrace.

JD Vance & Nick Ferrari are lying about the case of Adam Smith Connor On the day, he was asked to leave the area by a community officer who spoke to him for 1hr 40 mins - but he refused. BCP Council found 75% of 2,241 residents supported the introduction of a buffer zone at the site. @lbc.co.uk

No need for subtlety here.

Swarbrick talks a load of old drivel #lbc

Ferrari pretending he doesn’t know what “that word woke “ means #lbc

Nick Abbot on now #lbc

🚗 Good to meet Ipswich Central CEO, Lee Walker, today. We are both committed to reviving Ipswich town centre, and I welcome the 10-week trial at the Apex Blackfriars car park: free car parking every Thursday from 3pm. Full story here: www.ipswichstar.co.uk/news/2493441...

Good work George.

Chancellor is doing a good job Leave her alone #lbc

Ferrari et al continuing their mysoginistic attack on the Chancellor. 🤮#lbc

Daniel from Golders Green 😳 #lbc

Tom , talk over him , it’s your show #lbc

Oh Richard Tice on LBC again 🤮#lbc

Military historian Sir Antony Beevor on Times Radio on Trump-Putin: "We should always distrust historical parallels, especially those from WW2...but there is a really very frightening echo of the betrayal of Czechoslovakia in 1938 and the idea that one can deal over the heads of a suffering nation"

As being “free to make our own trade deals” has delivered the square root of jack shit and, as Brexiters still can’t tell us what EU regulations they want to scrap, closer alignment with the EU should be a no-brainer. Great work @bestforbritain.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

This is another important step on the path to an ambitious devolution settlement. Alongside an East Anglian Mayor, I want to deliver a Greater Ipswich council which will give us the proper focus, real pulling-power, and autonomy to shape our future, and fulfil our potential.

Years of inertia regarding the Orwell Bridge and a Northern Bypass is hurting both Ipswich and Suffolk. That's why I'm urging the Government to elevate it out of the local political quagmire, and give it the attention it deserves by designating it as nationally significant infrastructure.

Brilliant

Before Christmas, the Government announced an extra £5.5 million for policing in Suffolk - a real-terms funding increase - alongside a number of other measures. I'll continue to lobby for fairer funding, but this significant boost is very welcome.

People in Ipswich and Suffolk are tired of navigating pothole-riddled roads. With this huge boost in new funding, it is now incumbent on Conservative-run Suffolk County Council to finally act and repair our broken roads.

Albert.

Hello and thanks for the welcome. And huge extra thanks to Gary for getting me here
