Building on our rich heritage to develop the future of the region’s rail through new stations and investment.

I’m so proud to see #PeakyBlinders: The Immortal Man premiere in the #WestMidlands. It’s a homecoming in more than one way. It was filmed here, produced here, and written by a good friend to me and the region, Steven Knight. Wishing all those involved with the premiere all the best of luck.

I’m backing the Birmingham Balti to be given UNESCO protected status. When you think of the Balti you think of Birmingham - and I think that’s something to be proud of, protected, and internationally recognised.

For years, places like Washwood Heath were left behind. Now we’re bringing investment, skilled jobs and opportunity back into the heart of the West Midlands. More than 1,500 jobs. A historic industrial site brought back into use. And long-term growth for local communities.

Great to visit Stirchley with @alcarns.bsky.social today. The community here will be their own landlords. This co-op shows what happens when people have power over their own homes. Safety, security, fairness, and pride in where they live. We need more of this. 🏡 @coopparty.party.coop

I’m investing £75 million in training up 12,000 young people so that they can get access to jobs or become apprentices. Apprentices like Joe, Freddie, and Aimee at Seddon who I met recently at the Millennium Centre project in Friar Park.

Opening five new stations, freezing fares, and taking rail back into public ownership. The ways we are making transport better for West Midlands communities were the focus of our discussion as Heidi Alexander, Secretary of State for Transport, joined me on a visit to Kings Heath station.

I’m committed to helping the next generation into rewarding careers. At Freightliner I saw the enormous size and scale of the logistics sector and the vital role it plays in the West Midlands. Working with partners like Generation Logistics unlocks these kinds of jobs for young people.

I'm proud to be working with people like Steven who tell the stories from, and about, where we live. As he says, the stories that come from the West Midlands are as valid as anywhere else in the world - and I champion all the creative people working hard to put our region on the map.

I’m halfway through my trade mission to India. Here’s my update on what I’ve been doing so far for the people of the West Midlands.

Democrats have now firmly lost the 2026 redistricting wars-- but their problems have only just begun. The population of blue states is contracting, while the Sun Belt and Inner Mountain West have grown. Democrats are facing an apocalyptic electoral future. ht RealTheoWold

RFK Jr. must have been thinking of the film "Scanners" which shows someone's head exploding or maybe his worm was still having a gray matter sandwich at the time and he was feeling a little headache coming on.

If you hate Israel or Jewish people please do me a huge favor and fuck off. That also includes all you idiots who think we are bombing the shit out of Iran just because Israel said so. I really don’t care how many of you unfollow me. I am tired of hearing this nonsense. Sincerely fuck off.

The lessons are clear. People are looking to get rid of FF-FG, and the left needs to give them a clear alternative. We need commitments NOT to go into government with FF-FG, combined with clear left principles on housing, cost of living, climate, etc. to offer a clear choice at the next election.

I recently raised the importance of defence sovereign capability in Dame Chi Onwurah's debate on technology sovereignty. In a turbulent world it's ever more important that we develop robust supply chains that safeguard the UK's ability to protect itself and keep citizens safe.
