Labour Peer. Gambling & Heritage Minister and DCMS Minister in the Lords.
Really proud to be part of a @DCMS ministerial team that has kept our manifesto promise to fans and delivered the Football Governance Act 2025 that became law today. Fans will now have a stronger voice in how their football teams are run.

Fantastic session at Dagenham Library with Martin Burrows' talk about Springboard hospitality career opportunities!🌟Excited to welcome 8 new trainees who signed up! Honoured to be joined by @fionatwycross and @SaimaAshraf for their support. The future of hospitality is bright!
We’ve launched the Civil Society Covenant - a new partnership between government and civil society. Together, we’ll deliver real change through respect, shared ambition, and collaboration. This is what doing government differently looks like.
The Football Governance Bill has just passed its final stages in Parliament. Brilliant to join the team in the House of Lords tonight. This Labour Government have delivered an Independent Football Regulator to put fans back at the heart of the game ⚽️👇
Thinking about all those who lost their lives and those whose lives will never be the same again, twenty years on from the 7/7 attacks.
Twenty years on from the 7/7 attacks, we remember all those whose lives were lost and those whose lives were changed forever. We honour the bravery of the first responders, and the strength of the survivors. Those who try to divide us will always fail.

On this day 77 years ago, Labour created the NHS. For the first time in UK history, healthcare was free of charge to all who needed it. We will always protect it, so that it can protect you.

With hot weather across the country this week, make sure you keep hydrated. Dehydration means your body loses more fluids than you take in, children and older adults are more at risk. If it's not treated, it can become a serious problem. More info ➡️ nhs.uk/conditions/deh…
Thank you for visiting @fionatwycross - we're incredibly proud of our skilled craftspeople who are preserving our historic building for generations to come.

On the day the Football Governance Bill completed its committee stage in the House of Commons, it was lovely to catch up with my predecessor as Sports Minister Dame Tracey Crouch, who deserves huge thanks for all her work in delivering an Independent Football Regulator ⚽️
On this eighth anniversary of the Grenfell Tower Fire, thinking about the 72 people who lost their lives and all those whose lives will never be the same.
