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.

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.
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!
Happy International Women’s Day! Molly 'Meatball' McCann is a women who inspires me, one of the most famous UFC fighters from the UK, and she has inspired a generation of girls and women to actively get involved in mixed martial arts, and I think that's pretty cool!
£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.
STARK has just brought its first cohort of apprentices into the Swindon factory. They have more summer placements and placement years for STEM-related roles coming out through the summer. It's great to see how committed they are to employment and jobs in Swindon.
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.
Amazing to see the Minister for the Armed Forces, Al Carns, supporting the drone manufacturing industry. He's highlighting the incredible contribution Swindon is making in the defence of our allies across the world and how by doing this we're generating well paid, high-skilled jobs here at home!
Reform comes to Swindon to say how broken things are, but at the same time praises my work reindustrialising the town. I am proud to have been the first MP in decades to bring advanced manufacturing back to Swindon, making us the drone manufacturing hub of the U.K. 🧵
It was great to take part in the Westminster Hall Debate on Government support for mountain rescue. It's fantastic to see drone technology used to make the work of the volunteers working for mountain rescue even more effective.

Comcast News-MSNOW was so obvious in their bull manure work, even other platforms were calling out the pro-Trumpism drumbeat. 'ScaredBro' Scarborough and his now 3rd wife 'Meek' Mika, were 'love-nesting homewreckers' at-the-time and being leveraged by Trump, as was Matt Lauer.

3. So there was this dance that Black people used to do in the latter part of the 19th century. It was called the cakewalk. It was Black people making fun of the way white plantation owners used to act. But....it became REALLY popular. At one point, everyone was trying to do it
