Finally a Brexit deal that boosts jobs, security and prosperity. A brilliant and defining achievement by this Labour Gvt - and huge credit to Nick Thomas-Symonds in particular, who has worked tirelessly for many months to get this over the line 👏

When we said water companies had nowhere to hide, we meant it.

Over 2000 local residents have signed my petition to save Wellsbourne GP surgery. For-profit providers shouldn't replace a much loved community practice. Grateful to Polly Toynbee for covering our campaign 👇 theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

It was an honour to meet the Bashford family at a recent constituency surgery. Their story - and how they’ve had to fight a justice system that too often lets victims down - is heartbreaking. Thanks to BBC Sussex for telling it. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

A brilliant announcement from Labour. Up to 4,000 kids in Brighton Kemptown and Peacehaven will benefit. And it will lift 100,000 children out of poverty across the country. This is just the start of Labour's child poverty strategy.

Great to hear! Votes at 16 is long overdue.

Save Wellsbourne Healthcare! Keep Local, Trusted GP Care in Whitehawk Here's the informative discussion on BBC Politics South East, featuring our Chris Ward MP And please add your name to the 3,000+ on the Petition! chriswardmp.co.uk/petition-save-…

Congrats to all staff and students at Brighton Aldridge Community Academy - this is brilliant news, and recognises the huge progress that’s been made 👏

Peacehaven has huge ambition and potential, but constant congestion and roadworks on its only access road are holding it back. I’ll keep pushing for a better outcome. Great to raise this with Lilian Greenwood in the Chamber this morning.

Good to see James MacCleary MP raise the problems with the A259 through our constituencies - and the Prime Minister recognise the need for urgent action.

Proud to co-sponsor this important Bill. Mandatory SEND training for teachers was a key takeaway from the SEND Summit I hosted in April – it would make a huge difference to children, teachers, and parents. Great to be supporting Nesil Caliskan on this.

Good to be on The Last Word with Kit Bradshaw talking about Labour’s first year. Thanks to Kit for coming to Saltdean and to Whitecliffs for hosting us and providing the lovely backdrop!

This is great news. Votes at 16 is long overdue and it's absolutely right that 16 and 17 year olds get a say on the issues that matter to them. A Labour manifesto promise delivered.

Great to speak to residents in Woodingdean as part of Labour’s National Campaign Weekend. Huge thanks to Baroness Jenny Chapman for joining us 🌹 #labourdoorstep

Huge thanks to International Development Minister Jenny Chapman for joining me at the world-leading Institute of Development Studies University of Sussex. International development matters to me, to Labour, and to Brighton. It was great to hear Jenny set out next steps.

Southern water have taken bill payers for fools for too long. A bumper pay rise for their CEO is indefensible and should be turned down.

Delighted Wellsbourne GP surgery will continue serving our community. After months of campaigning, NHS Sussex have paused plans to replace Wellsbourne with a private provider. Thanks to the 4,000+ who backed my petition – a huge win for staff, patients and Whitehawk.

Divided loyalties for me last night but a pleasure to watch Whitehawk FC v Brighton & Hove Albion Academy and to see the Hawks come out on top. Thanks to everyone at the Club for a great evening.

A beautiful day to celebrate Brighton and Hove Pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Thank you to Pride Community Foundation and everyone involved in making today such a wonderful celebration.
