Margaret McDonagh is still dearly missed. And her sister @Siobhain_Mc has campaigned with characteristic determination to get more clinical trials for glioblastoma up and running.
In memory of my sister Margaret, we launched a Glioblastoma drug trial. Now, Margaret’s Trial is open on the NHS - and offering real hope. Ben, diagnosed with a Glioblastoma in 2022, saw his tumour vanish. His story helped make this happen. Watch here:

I’m on the morning round setting out Labour’s plans to give children the best start in life. From 30 hours of government-funded childcare to rolling out Best Start Family Hubs, our Plan for Change is boosting support for families and life chances for children.
Children growing up in our country deserve the best start in life. Building on the legacy of Sure Start, we’re opening Best Start Family Hubs in every local authority. That’s the difference Labour makes. theguardian.com/society/2025/j…
This is an appalling attack on Green Park School and Stowlawn Primary - two much loved local schools. Mindless vandalism which will cost £100,000 or more to repair. My thoughts are very much with the staff, pupils and parents affected. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
An NHS fit for the future. A healthier nation fit for the future. This is our plan.
Thank you to all our veterans and serving members of the armed forces. A huge turnout on a beautiful day for Armed Forces day in Wolverhampton.




Happy Fathers' Day to all the dads out there. Cherish the moments and the time we get to spend with our children. It goes so fast. One minute they're babies. The next you're reaching up to give them a hug.
Everybody wants to have a home. Since I became an MP 20 years ago a shortage of affordable housing has been one of the biggest issues facing my constituents. Today the Labour Government begins to put that right with the biggest investment in new social housing for decades.

✅ More money to secure our borders. ✅ Record investment into our NHS. ✅ New infrastructure to kickstart the economy. We're investing in the people’s priorities.
ICYMI: We're giving over half a million more children access to free school meals, putting £500 back in the pockets of parents who need it the most.

Today Labour announces access to free school meals for families on universal credit. Will make a real difference to many families on low incomes and help give more children the best start in life. 🌹
🚨 NEW: Labour is lifting 100,000 children out of poverty by expanding access to free school meals. Alongside free breakfast clubs, cheaper uniform costs and government-funded childcare, Labour is putting money in parents’ pockets and giving children the best start in life.

As the nation commemorates VE Day, Labour is announcing a new UK-wide veteran support system, called VALOUR, to ensure veterans have easier access to care and support. We owe a debt of gratitude to those prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
