This fight is personal to me. It's an honour to be Labours Parliamentary candidate for Thurrock 🌹

It was a huge honour to Second the King's Speech in Parliament today 👑 I paid tribute to two fantastic women & political trailblazers who I'm privileged to count as friends, Harriet Harman and Diane Abbott. Because of them I, and so many others like me, have a voice today 👇🏾

Last night, I was delighted to speak at the 50:50 Parliament event, where I spoke about my path to becoming an MP, supporting women and the importance of acknowledging the symptoms of menopause. Chamber UK
