Huge congratulations to the entire team who made this happen, with special thanks to Emma Richardson for her incredible opening show, and @artscouncilengland.bsky.social for their support.

Just a few days into my ministerial role after my maternity leave, I can’t deny that stepping up to the despatch box wasn’t a daunting prospect.

Huge privilege to answer questions at my first Cabinet Office oral questions.

So much done, but so much still to do.

Great to be doing my bit! 🙌🏾

Let’s not wake up to a Reform councillor. 🌹

Proud to show our city leading the way… AGAIN! 💚🛳️ 🙌🏾

Great to join Labour Climate and Environment Forum and ABP last week, to see first-hand the incredible work being done to clean up our port.

It’s supported by the Government’s recent £500m investment, to make ports sustainable and future ready.

We did it! 🎉🚨🎉🚨🎉🚨

Absolutely delighted to announce that my campaign to bring a front counter back to Shirley has been successful, thanks to the Labour Government’s Pride in Place fund.

Absolute squad out in Shirley today, in the final week ahead of byelection on Thursday! 🌹

It’s Labour or Reform in Shirley, and the choice couldn’t be starker. A positive vision with our candidate James Clark, or divisive politics designed to tear us apart.

I know what I prefer! 🤩💪🏾

Like many people who have sadly encountered the unpleasant side of social media, I am acutely aware of the risks online interactions can pose. 💬

I'm proud that, this week, our Government has announced immediate steps to make the internet safer for our children.

Your regular reminder of all the things our Labour Government has delivered this week… 👇🏾🌹

Really excited about Labour’s new Local Power Plan launched this week, putting power back in the hands of our communities. ⚡️

This is exactly the kind of policy that will support work we’re doing locally through Southampton Energy Coalition, working to secure our city’s energy security long term. 💚

Casework win! 💫

In this case, I was glad to get behind residents’ calls for a speed warning sign on Howards Grove in Shirley. Pleased we were listened to.
