"We are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us."
Today marks ten years since the murder of Jo Cox MP.
In her maiden speech, Jo spoke about the strength of community and the values that bring people together. Those words have endured because they remain as important today as they were then.
Politics should be passionate. Healthy debate and disagreement are a vital part of our democracy. But too often, that debate is being replaced by hostility, abuse and threats.
Over the last decade, we have seen two MPs – Jo Cox and Sir David Amess – murdered while serving their communities. The abuse faced by elected representatives, and their staff, at every level of politics continues to grow, and that should concern all of us, whatever our political views.
Like many MPs, I want to remain visible, accessible and engaged with the people I represent. I won't be deterred from doing my job, but we all have a responsibility to think about the tone of our public debate.
Jo's message is one worth remembering today: we have far more in common than that which divides us. ... See MoreSee Less

Since being elected as your MP, I've argued that childhoods should not be shaped by addictive algorithms, with little protections from anonymous strangers and harmful content.
Today, the Government has announced a landmark ban on social media for under-16s.
This is a major step forward for parents and young people, it won’t be easy but if the social media companies won’t look after our children, then this Government will do whatever it takes to give them back their childhoods. ... See MoreSee Less

𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗼𝗹𝘀 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗲𝗳'𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗼𝗹𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀
I recently met with local school support staff and UNISON representatives affected by the restructuring proposals being brought forward by the St Ralph Sherwin Catholic Multi-Academy Trust.
The proposals affect 14 schools across Derbyshire, including several schools here in High Peak.
Staff shared their concerns about the potential impact the proposals could have on both their livelihoods and the support available to pupils. Many are worried about changes to jobs, pay and working hours, and I know this has been an incredibly difficult and worrying time for dedicated school employees and their families. I am equally concerned about the impact these changes will have on pupils and the wider school communities.
Following those discussions, I joined with fellow Derbyshire MPs to raise these concerns directly with the Trust and seek further information about the proposals, the consultation process and the potential impact on staff, pupils and school communities.
In recent days, in response the Trust has announced that its Chief Executive is stepping down. I understand an interim chief executive has been appointed and my challenge to them is to listen and address the concerns that have been raised by staff, pupils and their families.
I recognise the financial challenges facing the Trust. However, before any reduction in frontline support staff is implemented, it is important that all reasonable alternatives are fully explored. School support staff play a vital role in helping children learn, thrive and stay safe, and their contribution should never be underestimated.
We all want the best outcome possible for the schools and everyone connected with them.
I will continue to engage constructively with all parties and support local staff and families as this process progresses. ... See MoreSee Less

A number of residents got in touch with me recently to report that the free to use cash machine at Glossop's Banking Hub was out of order.
I raised the issue with Cash Access UK, who provide this along with the Banking Hub service, and I'm pleased to say the cash machine is now back up and running.
Thank you to everyone who contacted me to flag the problem. Access to cash remains important for many people in our community, so I'm glad we were able to get this sorted quickly.👍 ... See MoreSee Less
