A really productive meeting today with the Health Minister, DHSC, and NHS officials to talk about my experience of living with ulcerative colitis - and how we raise awareness and improve inflammatory bowel disease care across the country.
Coincidentally, tomorrow I’ll be handing in a petition in Parliament calling to abolish the House of Lords as we know it.
Jobs for life handed out to friends and donors have no place in public life.
This broken model is eroding trust in our politics and institutions.
Starmer tells Liaison Committee that the work to reduce the size of the House of Lords is "ongoing" – citing the removal of the hereditaries. Yet the Electoral Reform Society notes he has already created 96 peers in 18 months – more than the outgoing 92 hereditaries.
Great to meet with Andrew & Asma, the new operators of Knaresborough Banking Hub, just off the Market Square on Kirkgate.
The following banks are there: NatWest - Monday, Halifax - Tuesday, Santander - Wednesday, HSBC - Thursday, Barclays - Friday. Everyday banking for all

Putin's war is still raging. Ukrainians are still being killed.
Russia should be nowhere near the Olympics.
The IOC must reverse this shameful decision.

🚨 NEW: Parliament has confirmed Count Binface will not be allowed to sit in the Commons wearing his space costume and bin head
He remains the only main challenger to Nigel Farage in the Clacton by-election
The UK is unequivocal: the Russian state should NOT be represented in international sport while the barbaric full-scale invasion of Ukraine continues.
We stand in full solidarity with the people of #Ukraine.
The decision by the IOC is utterly appalling.
This is a disgraceful and irresponsible decision by the IOC.
While Russia continues its campaign of terror against Ukraine, the IOC has chosen to turn a blind eye, lifting restrictions and effectively clearing the way for Russian athletes to return to international competitions.
So, after complaining about the Government wasting taxpayer money, Nigel Farage is triggering a by-election, costing the taxpayer hundreds of thousands of pounds to pump up his ego and dodge questions about his finances.
This isn’t about the people of Clacton, it never has been,
