Brilliant visit to Cranbourne School - huge thanks to the Head Boy and Student Ambassador for the tour. 🌱Loved seeing Cranbourne Greening in action: students growing veg for the canteen + cutting carbon. Their big asks? Tackle homelessness, fix potholes, cleaner streets.

For too long people’s living standards have been squeezed as price rises for energy, food, & childcare have risen faster than wages. Proud to join this group working to ensure our @UKLabour government continues to focus on the cost of living & making our constituents better off.
Exc - Tonight a new group of Labour MPs launches calling on the PM to radically refocus on cost of living. They say progress made on incomes but there should be now a major effort to drive down every day costs of energy, childcare, food and housing.

Every child deserves the best start. That’s why we’re rolling out Best Start Family Hubs in every local authority - backed by £500m. A one-stop shop for parents. No postcode lotteries. Just real help, close to home. 👶 A promise made. A promise kept.

📖 1 in 8 adults across the UK can’t read. In Basingstoke, that’s around 3,600 people. I recently met Paula, an ambassador for Read Easy, who’s working to change that. She’s a passionate advocate for adult literacy and breaking the stigma around dyslexia. Thanks to Read Easy,

⚡ Last week I met with heat pump installers, fuel poverty campaigners and environmental charities in Parliament to back a simple but urgent goal: cutting electricity prices. The UK has some of the highest electricity costs in Europe. Too many families are still facing
