MP for Southport. Likes community business, pop music and the type of social democracy we generally had between 1945 and 1979.
- Funnily enough, it's 7.27pm and I'm still in Parliament working. Why isn't Robert?You guessed it, it’s 4pm and Parliament is done for the day. Again. This is a zombie government.
- Turning Point UK published a video yesterday promoting “The King’s Army”, a group protesting against “immoral culture” while dressed in uniform. This type of activity has been illegal in the UK since the 1930s under legislation brought in to combat fascism.
- Replying to @Marcus___007I've been in the Chamber today talking about US tariffs on steel, have had 8 meetings to discuss economic development and community cohesion, and spent the evening speaking to constituents on the phone. Just like hundreds of other MPs. Robert appears to have clocked off at 4pm.
- Editor’s note: The current government has never announced any plan to freeze PIP.🚨 NEW: The Government's plan to freeze PIP next year is now 'likely' to be dropped after Labour backlash [@danbloom1]
- This article has only increased my admiration for @Keir_Starmer. A very human portrayal of a normal bloke in a very abnormal job.The private trials of Keir Starmer The prime minister reveals the quiet grief and inner determination of his first year in office – and why he ‘deeply regrets’ his ‘island of strangers’ speech. bit.ly/4l2JM6L
- Replying to @KevinPMeagher and @AbdiDuale_I literally left the place at quarter to nine. Back in at half 8 tomorrow for a load of meetings before the first Commons session at 11.30, at which I'm on the order paper to ask questions on new tech policy. If @RobertJenrick doesn't want to do the job, nobody's forcing him.
- Replying to @DPJHodgesBut Labour blocked the Rwanda Bill 130+ times, of course it’s politically justified!
- Vote Labour in Southport on 4th July and you’ll get an MP who knows how to use a brolly. ( cc @RishiSunak )
- My statement following today's horrific attack in Southport.
- Been thinking of Bebe King, Elsie Dot Stancombe, Alice Dasilva Aguiar, and their families, today. They deserve our enduring love and respect, and their memory should be honoured. Rest in peace.
- I’ve been in Parliament all day representing my constituents. 🇬🇧
