There is rightly a lot of discussion on MPs having second jobs, although some may be surprised about my only veterinary work last year at Marwell Zoo - blood testing penguins. Not the most glamorous, but certainly a challenge!

Wes may be gone, but he left us one parting gift: ANOTHER consultation. Children, parents, NHS staff have been saying for years we have a crisis. We do not need more words, we need action.

Scrolling is the new smoking. I hear it from parents, teachers, and from children themselves. Big tech companies have created addictive algorithms that monetises attention. We did not expect parents to take on the smoking industry alone, so we cannot abandon them on social media safety either.

If something is so cruel that we ban it in the UK, we cannot allow imports to become a loophole. We should not offshore animal cruelty. We know that we have robust animal welfare laws but too often imports are still being used to evade our high animal welfare standards.

Happy World Book Day!📚 Today also marks the beginning of Winchester Book Festival. To celebrate, here are some of my favourite books:

Conservatives promised hospitals, but never delivered. Now, the Labour Government has spent millions on a new site where a hospital may never even be built 20 years from now. If we can find the money for that, surely we can find the money to save Winchester's hospital, that needs fixing right now.

Organisations like @trinitywinchester.bsky.social and @dogstrust.bsky.social do incredible work to support vulnerable people fleeing domestic abuse day-in, day-out. I urged the House to celebrate their invaluable work to keep people safe and supported.

Conservative-run Hampshire County Council is about to receive an extra £50 million from government to improve bus services. So it's time for them to restore the services they cancelled and keep us all connected.

The Scotia-Glenville Board of Education has voted to close the Glen-Worden Elementary School. The plan was approved 5-2.

HASSETT: Core inflation has barely moved QUICK: But producer prices moved up more than anticipated too. And by the way, we were at inflation that was above target even before the Iran war HASSETT: But it was headed in the right direction by quite a bit

Everybody is concerned about the cost of living except Senate Republicans . Republicans are in charge of every branch of the government and have done exactly NOTHING to help regular people afford their lives. —Senator Schatz

Recently, the Trump Admin. announced a decision that makes it easier to deport DACA recipients despite their protected status. These are individuals who have only ever known America as their home. They grew up here, and they deserve to continue to work and build their lives here.

😄 In the Vovchansk area, the occupiers tried to ingeniously deceive the Ukrainian fighters. A truck with a cut-off roof and trailer was converted into a pontoon and was supposed to become a river crossing. But the plan was quickly discovered…

The decision by Microsoft to hide a substantive fee hike (42%) on the personal version of Office pass the exorbitant cost of AI word salad onto the user has been criticised by Chi Onwurah MP. As such, I am very glad that this is something that Cardiff Council is keeping a watch on.
