I am curious to note the Office for Budget Responsibility saying today that the last three years have been the deepest recession in the UK in 300 years. Maybe they should tell ministers.

Five years ago I moved into rail. I’d worked for the church for 12 years, had a break for medical reasons, and found a role in an industry I knew nothing about. It took a while to ā€œlearn the languageā€ & how the industry brain works but I’m convinced rail can be a great place…

It was a pleasure to celebrate Dame Margaret’s 40th anniversary of becoming a Derby MP last Friday. A true icon and female role model with several ā€˜firsts’ to her name. Clearly respected by ⁦@Keir_Starmer⁩ , past PM’s and senior colleagues.

Let’s talk about good people. I literally wanted to shout about @tfwrail conductor Gemma today. Between Prestatyn-Shotton she helped a family who got on the wrong train, sorted the best ticket & made sure they were all sorted. Told her she was fabulous.
