Hi @CWhittaker_MP you are my MP. Can you please explain what appears to be a gross breach of the regulations, by No 10, last year?

Hi @CWhittaker_MP constituent here. I've read your position dated 25th Jan on the front page of your website: craigwhittaker.org.uk/news/no10-part…. Given what we now know, and what all of us have seen over the past few days, what is your current stance?

#TRIPLive how far do you think regional devolution should / will go? Do you think anyone will make the jump between first minister and prime minister?

#TRIPLive do you think we'll see a Section 28 equivalent for trans rights and gender identity?
