Thrilled and proud to have been awarded an MBE for 'Services to Education' in HM The King's 2026 Birthday Honours. It's a true joy and privilege to have the chance to make a difference with some superb teams. tinyurl.com/5n8y7598

As #COP31 begins, my message is clear: no country can tackle the climate crisis alone.
Britain will work with countries around the world to tackle the climate crisis, while leading a transition at home that brings down bills, creates jobs and protects our communities.

At this time of year, we come together to honour the courage and bravery of the Armed Forces and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
I want to give my thanks to those who have served and are still serving today. I know you and your families make huge sacrifices to keep our country safe.
My job is to make sure that sacrifice is honoured, both through the way we treat our Armed Forces and our veterans, but also through the country we build for you and for your loved ones.
We will give our Armed Forces the funding and equipment you need to keep this country safe, as well as the good housing, training, and support you deserve. This is a world where once again it’s become necessary to stand up for our values and stand alongside our allies.
Our memories of those who went before us give us strength to know we will never be cowed in the face of threats or aggression. And together we will build a country we are proud to serve, and a future that remembers and honours those who fought for our freedoms.
A Britain worth fighting for.

I worry Westminster simply doesn’t pay enough attention to children.
Now I have over a million children's voices to take to number 10 off the back of my Big Future survey.

⭐OVER A MILLION CHILDREN answered The Big Future survey! ⭐ That is the biggest survey EVER done of children in England. Children have told me what they want for their future: now I will take a million of their voices to the Prime Minister and make sure they are heard.

Proud to announce that students in England will be able to study Ukrainian at GCSE.
It’s a chance for pupils to explore Ukraine’s rich culture and history and, for the Ukrainian community to remain connected to their heritage.
This is another step in our enduring support for Ukraine as part of the 100 Year Partnership 🇺🇦🇬🇧

It's time for Andy Burnham's government to ban #UnpaidInternships, as per Labour manifesto. They are exclusive and exploitative and have no place in the future of work. My blog for Progress today: lnkd.in/p/eqZvuCg5 @andyburnham @bphillipsonMP @Kate_Dearden @patmcfaddenmp

In 2008, Patrick Stewart came to give the South Shields Lecture. People still talk about it. He gave a brilliant evocation of how his upbringing made him an actor and a socialist. And he was hilarious about his job interview for Picard. Great man.

Your taxes should be spent on your priorities and the area you live in.
That is why Labour is devolving more tax decisions to mayors.

100 days ago, I promised to do things differently.
From cutting everyday costs to handing power back to communities, change is already underway.
But I know there’s much more to do - this is just the beginning.

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump and his family have lost surprise elections, thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.
