🇦🇷🇵🇾🇺🇾 Throughout my career in Parliament, I’ve always sought to champion opportunities that benefit communities directly.

As the UK Government Trade Envoy to the Southern Cone, my priorities are to strengthen collaboration on clean energy, job creation and sustainable growth.

Freedom of religious belief is a principle that our country prides itself on. We must defend it at every turn.

Timely reflection from @fabianhamilton.bsky.social highlighting the strategic value of UK soft power.

🗨️ “The FPC’s latest Soft Power Report could not have been more timely...if we invest in our strengths, we’ll help shape the solutions."”

🚲 Pleased to support the launch of LNER Beryl Bikes in Leeds. More e-bikes and bays make it simpler for people to cut congestion and pollution, and enjoy our brilliant city.

The bikes are parked outside Leeds Train Station and across the city.

Russia’s strike on the @britishcouncil.bsky.social in Kyiv is an attack on education, culture, and international cooperation.

As Chair of the APPG British Council & Soft Power, I condemn this act of aggression and welcome the Government’s swift decision to summon Russia’s ambassador.

🎉 Fantastic to be with Mayor of West Yorkshire Tracy Brabin and founder of the Leeds West Indian Carnival, Arthur France in Potternewton Park yesterday.

It’s fantastic to see Leeds residents come together the wonderful contributions the community has made to our city.

Congratulations to every young person in North East Leeds receiving results today!

No matter your background, I’m working alongside the government to ensure that you are given the tools and opportunities to succeed.

The government has agreed it will remove the four point system which related to PIP. No changes will now take place until after the Timms review reports back in autumn 2026.

♟️ A pleasure to meet young people from Allerton Primary School at ChessFest in London today. It was fantastic to see our local young people enjoying learning how to play chess and competing against one another in friendly competition.

We said we'd ban bonuses for polluting water bosses. We did.

Great to be with Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Steve Reed MP to discuss this Labour Government's work to clean up our waters.

I have signed the reasoned amendment. Our welfare system needs reform. But if we are to get this right, we cannot make it more difficult for those who are living with disabilities to get the support they need.

I cannot vote to make North East Leeds residents worse off.

NEW: This Labour Government has announced anyone on means-tested benefits will get £150 off their energy bills this winter, as it expands the Warm Homes Discount.

This will directly support many households in North East Leeds at a difficult time for families and communities.

The Autonomy Plan gives Western Sahara a high degree of autonomy and encourages shared prosperity.

This plan could alleviate human suffering. That is the unshakable bedrock of UK foreign policy under this government.
