Antisocial behaviour is sadly all too common across the Wirral. For too long, people across our area have been facing threats and intimidation in their own homes – this cannot go on.

Great to meet Varsha Gandikota-Nellutla & Guillaume Long to discuss the vital work of The Hague Group alongside parliamentary colleagues yesterday. The Hague Group is actively defending international law, working to uphold and enforce the rulings of the ICJ and ICC.

The Simonswood Stink is making some of my constituents physically sick. Yet Lancashire County Council and the Environment Agency continue to ignore it, despite repeated efforts from Knowsley Labour councillors and MPs. This is unacceptable. My question today ⬇

As a coastal area, clean water is vital for people on the Wirral. Lots of people have contacted me about shocking conditions of our waterways across the Wirral. This Labour Government is taking important steps to make sure water bosses who pollute our waterways aren’t rewarded for doing so.

Today evidence from the Committee on Climate Change confirms that a low-carbon future works. We need finance options that make switching to heat pumps & EVs easy for ALL. Running costs are already lower, consumers can save money without changing how they live—it's a no-brainer!

I met with my neighbouring MP @ashleydaltonmp.bsky.social to discuss the vile smell that repeatedly descends on Kirkby from a waste facility site. We are determined to work together with our councils and the Environment Agency to solve this. I will keep constituents up to date.

Today, we remember the 72 people who lost their lives in the Grenfell Tower tragedy. I welcome the news that the government is acting on all of the Inquiry’s findings. This must be used as a watershed moment for long-lasting, systematic change. Justice delayed is justice denied.

I welcome the Prime Minister’s announcement that defence spending will increase to 2.5% in this Parliament. This solidifies our government’s commitment to defending our values abroad. At home, we can make this an opportunity for British businesses to be at the very heart of our nation’s security.

Launch of @amnestyuk.bsky.social’s new report, Automated Racism, exposes how police use of technology to ‘predict crime’ means thousands are being racially profiled, purely based on: - Skin colour - Where they live - Socio-economic background This is automated racism and it needs banning.

We want hungry minds, not hungry bellies! Great to see St. Vincent de Paul School selected as the only school in my constituency for Labour’s free breakfast clubs. Every child in Liverpool Riverside deserves the very best start – we must go further & provide free school meals for all children.

Today the Labour Government launches Raneem’s law, placing domestic abuse specialists in 999 control rooms. The correct first response to domestic abuse is vital to protecting vulnerable women. I will continue to work with government, the council, and @The1stStep_ to push for improvements
