The recent heatwave has certainly got me thinking about the summer holidays. But before I look ahead to the weeks to come, I want to reflect on what happened on Tintwistle Moor last week.

Until the very last Keir Starmer has done what he thought was the right thing for our country.
It has been a huge honour to stand with Keir Starmer in Downing Street this morning having worked so closely with him over the last 12 months. He is a decent, kind, thoughtful man.

As the wildfire on Tintwistle Moor continues, it's a timely reminder of how important it is that we all play our part in protecting our countryside.
Wildfires devastate precious habitats, put wildlife at risk and place enormous pressure on our emergency services. A campfire, disposable BBQ or even a discarded cigarette can be enough to start a fire with devastating consequences.
If you're out enjoying the beautiful Peak District this summer, please act responsibly:
🔥 Don't use disposable BBQs or light campfires.
🚭 Never discard cigarettes on the ground.
🚮 Take your litter home.
By taking a few simple precautions, we can all help protect our moorlands, our wildlife and the brave firefighters working tirelessly to keep us safe. Thank you. ... See MoreSee Less

With summer fast approaching and the weather warming up, it's important to remember that rivers, reservoirs and lakes can still be dangerously cold - even during a heatwave.
Cold water shock can affect anyone, regardless of how confident a swimmer you are.
If you find yourself in difficulty in the water, remember to #FloatToLive:
💙 Tilt your head back with your ears submerged.
💙 Relax and try to control your breathing.
💙 Move your hands to help you stay afloat.
💙 Once the effects of cold water shock have passed, call for help or swim to safety if you can.
Every life lost to drowning is one too many. Please take care around open water this summer, look out for one another and help share this lifesaving advice.
Stay safe and enjoy the sunshine responsibly. ☀️💧 ... See MoreSee Less

A huge thank you to Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service, the Peak District Fire Operations Group and everyone still working tirelessly to tackle the fire. Your dedication in these incredibly challenging conditions is greatly appreciated.

There was plenty of lively discussion about proposed housing developments, the bypass, wildfires, traffic and of course the Reform run county councils’ proposal to close Glossop Tip. ...
