This is a huge achievement, one that I'm honoured to have played a supporting role in. ^This photo was just after Justin Madders gave us the brilliant news yesterday. Alongside @LouHaigh, who has worked so hard in leading our campaign on this, and Baroness O'Grady.

Speaking out about your own experiences is brave, but continuing to do so for the benefit of others is beyond courageous. Zelda Perkins' bravery in breaking her NDA to share her experiences has led us to this moment - NDA use to silence workplace misconduct will be banned.

Really pleased to announce that the Middlewich Eastern Bypass has been approved! This has been a major project this year alongside my colleague @GoAndrCoop and is crucial for connection between our towns. A huge thank you to all those who campaigned, and to @CheshireEast.

Going through the heartbreak of pregnancy loss is enough of a weight on parents without having to think about returning to work. Labour are implementing a day-one right to bereavement leave, giving those experiencing pregnancy loss time to grieve.

Delighted to see a #ParentalLeaveReview launched, something I called for in a letter to the Minister as Chair of the APPG for Flexible and Family Friendly Working. This will look at pay, simplification, and the needs of self-employed and kinship carers, just as we asked.

I want to gain a better understanding of the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities provisions available for people in our community. If you are a parent or carer of a child or young person with experience of SEND provisions, I want to hear from you.

I voted today in favour of the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, as did the House of Commons as a whole. I know that there are strong feelings on each side, and I thank every person that has been in touch from across the constituency with their thoughts.

I voted last night to decriminalise abortion. This will not change the time limit, grounds, or laws that govern those in a health setting. It will treat abortion as healthcare, not a criminal offence for which women can be subjected to long, traumatic police investigations.

Nine years ago today Jo Cox was murdered. Her death was, and still is, an immeasurable tragedy. Her words are as true today as they were then, and we should remember her on this day for all that she stood for. My thoughts are with all those that knew and loved her.

Having Jodrell Bank in Congleton is an honour. Not only is it an excellent attraction for visitors, it’s contributing to national space security. The UK is playing an internationally leading role in space tech, and I’m proud that a part of that lives in the constituency.

This will ensure every region gets a fair hearing when it comes to funding, which a number of us North West MPs have been calling for. A great step for our area.

You may have seen the debate I led on the Green Book review a few months ago (I also wrote about it here: calling for increased investment in the North📈. I'm so pleased that yesterday's Spending Review included confirmation of place-based business cases.
