Two weeks left to apply for the Fly High summer school. If you think you need a boost in making connections and networks, to experience work and help identify your personal ambition then I am hosting this 2 week experience for 16-19 year olds.

Great work Elsie Blundell MP 👏

Simply brilliant news. Thank you Elsie Blundell MP

Musa doesn't just "Love You," it's written all over his face. Just beautiful.

Excellent coverage in the media this week, locally and nationally, for the confirmation that Metrolink is coming to Heywood. It's great news for the town. I don't intend to stop there, and will keep campaigning for better transport for all our towns, including Middleton.

Half a million more children, including approx 3,000 more in Heywood and Middleton North, will be eligible for free school meals when the Government’s policy is enacted. I welcome the difference this will make in communities like mine.

Earlier in the House of Commons, I emphasised the need for work on the tram extension to Heywood to begin as quickly as possible. Listen to my question and the Chancellor’s response:

Exciting day for our Summer School participants! Big thank you to Avanti West Coast for supporting the school and looking after them on the way to London! They grilled the Local Government Minister Alex Norris, met with speaker Lindsay Hoyle and finished at 10 Downing St!

Thrilled to be joined by my constituent Hannah from Middleton - who is part of Rochdale Youth Council - and other young people from across the North West in Parliament today. They were all so passionate and articulate, and I was pleased hear about their priorities.

A blank space. And a dangerous one at that.

We have a major opportunity to transform our economy through better rail connectivity - but this will only happen if national and local government work well together. Last week I asked the Rail Minister and his officials how they intend to make sure that happens.

Since last July, my office has dealt with over 5,000 cases, helping local people get help, advice and raise issues with Government. Anyone in Heywood and Middleton North can contact my team by emailing [email protected]

I was delighted to meet with the children of St Vincent's in Parliament just before recess. I'm so glad that they had the opportunity to visit Parliament, speak with their MP and learn how what happens in Westminster affects them.

Did you know? Only 15.5% of England’s councillors identify as Disabled, below the 1 in 5 national average. Our #BeACouncillor campaign champions representation that reflects our communities. Get involved: local.gov.uk/our-support/co… #DisabilityPrideMonth

For the next four weeks, we are lifting the 9.30am rule on older and disabled people’s bus passes. We hope it will help people over the summer as well as provide valuable data on whether we have the capacity and finances to make it permanent. Please help spread the word! 🙏🏻

Watching Football Focus on the BBC and they are rightly condemning the racism by a supporter at Anfield last night and asking what can be done. Here's a solution go and ask your bosses at the BBC to stop platforming Farage and the racist Reform UKKK Ltd. #Semenyo

It's a tale as old as time that very rich people will try to blame society's ills on a minority group so that they themselves aren't held to account.

🚨Stephen Lennon is marching again in London this weekend. He insists he isn’t a racist, says it over and over, but the facts tell a different story. Here are five reasons why “Tommy Robinson” is a racist.

There IS a line. Either we accept free speech with all its dangers, or we admit that hate speech is violence waiting to happen. We oppose racism, fascism and bigotry. Stand for true British values and turn up for today's march in London opposing Tommy Robinson.

The Israeli Minister inviting Tommy Robinson a man with multiple convictions for violence and fraud to Israel in response to the horrific Manchester attack. Let that sink in.😳 At a time all communities in the UK are uniting to support our Jewish community as they grieve, the
