I’m delighted Port Sunlight station is to receive funding for a lift through the Government’s Access for All programme 👏 For the last year, I have been pushing for our stations to receive these much-needed upgrades, especially Spital which I know is a huge concern for many residents. This will help make our communities more inclusive and accessible for disabled passengers, the elderly and families using stations across the south of Wirral West. I will keep pushing for Spital, Bromborough and Eastham Rake stations to receive lifts, but this is great news 🚉

🔈Wirral’s opportunity to lead the way in tackling economic abuse🚨 Surviving Economic Abuse and Money Advice Plus have invited Wirral Council to submit an Expression of Interest to join an innovative pilot of the Economic Abuse Evidence Form. This is a vital opportunity for Wirral’s frontline teams to become national leaders in supporting residents facing debts linked to domestic and economic abuse. Read my letter to Wirral Council’s Chief Executive below👇

When Marlowe’s British Kitchen opened in Leeds, Rabbi Gilbert asked the Muslim owners, Jenade Yamin and Arabaab “Paddy” Munir if they would consider making it kosher as well as halal. They did not have to. It meant change and cost. Paddy thought about it and said yes. Now there are halal and kosher fryers side by side and one long queue for fish and chips. Orthodox Jews, Muslim families, neighbours from every background, ordering the same national dish. Everyone remained unmistakably themselves, they simply widened the table and in that small act, you glimpse the country we can still choose to be. (My grandfather was a kosher caterer, known for his fish. I inherited none of his skill!) @JewishNewsUK

See our response to the news today about the sharing of a Facebook post saying Labour MP, Natalie Fleet, ‘should be shot’ - sadly, threats like this are all too common. Abuse and intimidation should have no place in our politics.

📺 Watch the update from myself and the Minister for Social Care @SKinnock. Claire House is set to be allocated almost £190,000! This will go a long way to help with repairs and upgrades. Of course, there is still lot’s more to do – but this Labour Government is determined to ensure that change is felt locally here on the Wirral.

🏫Visit to Brookhurst Primary School🏫 My mission to visit every school across Wirral West took me to Brookhurst Primary School. It was wonderful to engage with the students and hear their views on social media. These are such valuable conversations for me to take back to Parliament. Thanks to all the great teachers and students at Brookhurst.
