Did you know Dire Straits formed on the Crossfield Estate in Deptford? I'm always proud to boast about the arts scene in Lewisham North.

On Tuesday the Culture, Media & Sport Select Committee questioned Dame Julia Unwin ahead of recommending her appointment as Chair of the Charity Commission. Good to be able to raise some of the concerns small charities have shared with me about lack of collaboration.

Popped into Deptford Literature Festival last Saturday. Loved the Navigating Culture: Black Male Writers on Britain Today panel discussion and the poetry readings by local poets from Poetry Lab. Huge thanks to London Writers Centre - Deptford's creativity never disappoints.

At our Culture, Media & Sport Select Committee session yesterday I asked Minister Stephanie Peacock whether her department takes working-class people’s views into account when planning major events. Pleased to hear it’s something she takes seriously - hope to see this reflected in future events.

Did you know on Monday, MPs will debate whether 16 and 17 year olds should get the right to vote? A huge moment and a long time coming.

Research shows that over 16,000 young people aged 11–15 still miss school due to bullying. This #AntiBullyingWeek, I pledge to use my #PowerForGood to champion kindness, respect and every young person's right to belong.

Great to welcome Baroness Hodge to Culture, Media & Sport committee for questions on her review of Arts Council England. She hits the nail on the head here – creatives need more support to get them through the first couple of years of their career, especially those from working-class backgrounds.

How do we define working-class? And does the BBC represent this group of people? My question to award-winning playwright and screenwriter, James Graham OBE, at the CMS Select Committee's BBC Charter Review this morning.

At the Culture, Media and Sport Committee today, TikTok’s representative assured me that under 13s are not allowed to access the platform. Yet according to Internet Matters, around 1/3 of 9-12-year-olds use it on a regular basis… Watch the whole session here www.parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/...

Congratulations to Christ The King Sixth Form College on securing Government funding to revamp its buildings - new heating, roof repairs and upgraded electrics. This is a great investment and part of Labour’s 10-year plan to renew schools and colleges across England.

This Administration’s long-term vacancies at HHS put Americans’ health and safety at risk. I questioned Secretary Kennedy on these inexcusable vacancies in his Department. I will continue to hold this Administration accountable while fighting to build a strong and reliable health care system.

Травневий ранок, ще й після дощу, Звабливо свіжий як цукерка з м`яти. Хмаринки де-не-де, немов із вати, А дощ-гуляка ледь вночі ущух. І сонце сонне мружить далину. Ще не пече, а лиш легенько гріє... У мить таку народжується мрія І слово відтина пуповину. Звичайне слово, зронене із уст...
