Great to stop by @RevoKitchen to join in celebrations of Jill Dando's life and legacy organised by @_TPLT_ & @JillDandoNews. Enjoyed Jill's favourite coffee and walnut cake - she had superb taste!

The way we regulate water & energy firms isn’t working properly: Ofwat & Ofgem have been too soft & customers are paying the price with higher bills ft.com/content/2723bd15-7c41…

Absolutely delighted @WestonCollege will be training HGV drivers for free. These are skills that are in high demand, so local people will have a great chance of a well-paid job at the end of the course: thewestonmercury.co.uk/news/…

Our internationally-high childcare costs create glass ceilings that hold back parents (particularly mothers) who want to maintain their careers. If other developed countries can do high-quality childcare more cheaply, why can’t we? @GraziaUK @PregnantScrewed #PovertyTrapped
Weston MP @JohnPenroseNews is meeting with Boris Johnson soon to find out why the UK has some of the most unaffordable childcare in the world graziadaily.co.uk/life/paren…

Incredibly proud of Weston's vaccine heroes. They've put us in the top 25 in the country for the number of boosters given. Well done to the NHS teams and volunteers, and also to those turning up to get jabbed! :) somersetlive.co.uk/news/area…

Can you think of a fantastic individual who has made a difference in our community? The UK Parliament Awards have opened up for nominations, so be sure to nominate them and get them recognised for the work they've done! parliament.uk/awards/

Great to hear @JohnPenroseNews speak last night about his new policy paper 'Poverty Trapped' - with a big focus on how planning reform can bring communities along by encouraging good design and ensuring local people get a fair share!

Weston MP John Penrose will sit down with Boris Johnson to discuss childcare reform in the UK after telling the Prime Minster the UK has 'some of the most unaffordable childcare in the developed world'. thewestonmercury.co.uk/news/…

Fascinating ideas from @JohnPenroseNews on ways to tackle poverty. Central theme is around providing opportunity, something which resonates widely with public. But value of paper is in discussion of implications for host of policy areas - skills, housing, childcare, honours, etc
#PovertyTrapped out today shows we need a new way of not only looking at poverty but also fixing it. It is fatalistic and wrong to assume it must always be with us. 1/2

Nice to be out and about chatting with residents around the Devonshire Road area today. Thanks to everyone who opened their doors to chat local and national issues 😊 Have a great weekend!

PM's move to tighten the rules on MPs taking 2nd jobs is absolutely right. But it’s only part of what’s needed to improve ethical standards & integrity in UK, so here's my shopping list of what else we should do: youtube.com/watch?v=KEApeYnm…

Huge news! I'm glad all the efforts from local residents (including me), @NorthSomersetC @RNLI & @HistoricEngland have finally meant we will save, restore & modernise Birnbeck Pier at last!
Final plans to save Birnbeck Pier have been announced after its owners agreed to sell the pier to North Somerset Council. thewestonmercury.co.uk/news/…
