Great to be back on the doorsteps and getting feedback on issues which matter most to residents. The winter fuel payment cut is causing anxiety among pensioners. We will continue to oppose this until the government u-turn. #AllYearRound #Bodmin

What better way to spend my birthday today than with the fantastic Cornwall Councillor Dominic Fairman for the official opening of the new Community Shop! Dominic and countless community champions made this happen. Always a pleasure to hear the St Breward Silver Band too! 🎺 🎶

🤝 Joined Minister Daniel Zeichner today for a roundtable with local farmers to tackle bovine TB, & urged support for North Cornwall’s fishermen by limiting large vessels nearshore. I also raised concerns about the lack of public consultation on the Port Isaac Bay seaweed farm.

🚁 Fantastic visit to the Cornwall Air Ambulance HQ today to meet their staff and volunteers. Exciting news that they have almost fundraised a second helicopter. So many unsung heroes! 🌊 I just finished the day in Boscastle to mark the 20 year anniversary of the 2004 floods.

Cuts to winter fuel payments when many pensioners are forced to choose between heating or eating is plain wrong. Of course millionaires shouldn't pocket the allowance but pensioners in North Cornwall and beyond who really need it should get it #UTurnNow express.co.uk/news/politics/…

I had a constructive meeting with South West Water’s Chief Exec Susan Davy. I explained the sewage scandal in our rivers and seas is unacceptable and must now be urgently addressed with actions not words. I also raised: 🚰 The need to improve their dire comms around the St Eval

🚨💬 Spoke to ITV News West Country about National Express’ decision to axe their 503 London -> Penzance line. A vital service for so many of my constituents here in North Cornwall, who otherwise face sky-high train fares, or no viable alternative at all. 👇
