Dr Beccy Cooper MP

🇬🇧 ➡️ 🇫🇷 ➡️ 🇪🇸 From tackling climate change to working to achieve a just and lasting peace in Ukraine and the Middle East, I'm working with my counterparts on the challenges that cross borders. Britain is best served by having a stronger relationship with our European allies.

I am doing this for my dad and the millions like him up and down the country.

I am thrilled to have been appointed as Parliamentary Private Secretary to the First Secretary of State, Louise Haigh. I'm looking forward to supporting her in the Cabinet Office and working with my wonderful colleagues @alangemmell and @BeccyCooper4Lab.

🚨 BREAKING: Andy Burnham says "the NHS will collapse" unless social care is reformed "Whatever political capital I have - I will put in to fixing broken social care. I would not want to leave office without having brought in substantial change"

.@andyburnham has been clear about his determination to change the culture of our politics and the way we work together in Westminster. He wants to build, relentlessly, a genuine culture of one Labour team. Read @anneliese_midge letter on how PPSs roles will be enhanced ⬇️

International development is central to foreign policy.   As UK Governor to @WorldBankGroup, I'll take personal leadership of the UK's work on development and climate.   Working with @kirstyjmcneill, we'll ensure the UK plays a leading role. theguardian.com/business/2026/…

Pubs deserve our backing. I’m not sure some of @JohnHealey_MP's choices here do though... Our 20% cut in business rates will benefit thousands of pubs, clubs and music venues across the country.

"In an increasingly volatile world, our ability to work together across borders is more important than ever." Great to see @MarshadeCordova championing equitable global partnerships in @Independent 👇 independent.co.uk/voices/uk-aid-…

BREAKING: PM Andy Burnham has announced he will cut business rates by 20% for pubs, clubs and live music venues from next April. The government says the move will save the typical pub £1,100 next year from their tax bill. trib.al/cO3SBG2 📺 Sky 501 and YouTube

First day in the job and we're already cutting taxes on electricity bills. We're taking immediate action to help people with the cost of living, giving millions of households some much needed breathing space.

🚨 NEW: Andy Burnham has appointed Miatta Fahnbulleh as Energy and Net Zero Secretary

Lovely touch to write out to the year 6 kids in this area. Thank you for hand signed letter for my son xx @BeccyCooper4Lab

@DavidAChilton Pleasure, thanks for the kind message ❤️

In today’s @TheScotsman I’ve written about my visit to Syria & the hope that exists amidst huge challenges. Syrians are on a mission to rebuild their country. It’s in the UK’s interests that they succeed. We must stand with them as partners in doing so. scotsman.com/news/opinion/c…

The next few days are about more than changing who governs Britain. They’re about changing how Britain is governed.

When I said I was going to do politics differently, I meant it. Yesterday I spent a couple of hours in Cardiff city centre inviting people to ask me anything about my plans for the UK.

Congratulations to @andyburnham, the new Leader of the Labour Party!

@CoopParty Thanks for inviting me, it was great to here about some of the excellent work that is going on locally and to discuss the excellent Labour Cooperative partnership

In Worthing, co-operators came together last weekend to make the case for a Community Britain: communities with more power, more ownership, and more say over the places they call home.
