I've just released my newsletter covering April and the first half of May. After a turbulent few weeks I'm pleased to be continuing to deliver for the people of Swindon. If you want to receive updates straight to your inbox, sign up and subscribe! open.substack.com/pub/willston...

I wanted to share some of my recent speech on the building of Swindon's drone hub given the stark realities of the world we live in. I know it can be scary and that's why I'm building this hub, so that the UK can provide high skilled jobs that protect us here at home.

A great opportunity to intervene in today's debate on youth mental health support, to raise how incredibly important sport provision and mentorship can be in tackling the youth mental health crisis, and to shout out Swindon's own BEST charity for the work they do.

Eid Mubarak to those celebrating! I'm hoping you all had a fantastic Ramadan and managed to celebrate with your friends and family. Wishing you the best!

Hoxton Farms are leading the way in alternative proteins which is a major opportunity, not just for the economy but for health, sustainability, and food resilience. I am thrilled that the Government are backing the sector.

This Labour government has a golden opportunity to transform the life chances of whole generations of young people. I want to make sure the government gets this right, which is why I’m asking you to contribute to my survey. willstone.org.uk/send-reform-...

Today is #InternationalNursesDay. My dad was a nurse, so I know how hard you all work. I want to say a massive thank you, especially to the nurses at Great Western Hospital.

Last year I pressed the government to open up daily travel between Swindon and Oxford. I am delighted that this will happen. I want to say a massive thank you to my South Swindon counterpart Heidi Alexander, Secretary of State for Transport for her work on this.

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.

£1,841,702 for Swindon Council to set up a new SEND service called Experts at Hand. What does that mean? Quicker, earlier, easier access to specialist support from educational psychologists, occupational therapists, speech and language therapists for local children with SEND.

It’s important to match the specific variety to your specific growing climate. This is so true when it comes to lavender! Thank you for supporting small business businesses; you make it possible for us to keep growing. #FamilyFarm #FarmLife #Herbs

Terrible news for trump: New poll: "Trump’s net approval on cost of living is a staggering -41. Among independents, it’s -60—near universal distrust. Not a surprise, but still notable: this is his lowest rating on cost of living across both his first and second terms."

Huge demonstrations by the Bolivian people demanding the resignation of Rodrigo Paz for incompetence, the popular uprising in Bolivia is a living example of the proletariat tired of capitalists and Bolivia demonstrates in practice, not in theory, that the class struggle remains relevant.

💔Another Sunrise in Ukraine, where people wake to the sound of explosions & the sky covered in thick, black smoke. Kyiv, Dnipro, Odesa… The headlines might be gone, but the russians keeps murdering Ukrainians in their own homes, while they sleep, every single day. Don’t look away 😔

The Senate Banking Committee cowered to Crypto Super PACs over the interests of working people by passing the CLARITY Act and exposing our retirement savings to volatile cryptocurrency. If this bill heads to the floor, we urge senators to stand up for working people and vote NO.
