An incredible by-election win took place last night. The Green Party won their first by-election and the new Gorton and Denton MP, Hannah Spencer, is the Greens first ever MP in the north of England. The Greens got 40.7% of vote, up 28% from the 2024 general election. Reform came in second with 28.7%, up…
“The law must take its course”, those were the words in a statement released by the King following the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, yesterday Thursday 19th February. Andrew was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office following the release of the Epstein Files in January. Andrew has denied wrongdoing in relation to Epstein. I…
It has rained and rained and rained for days on end in parts of the UK. Three storms hit the UK, especially the South-West of the UK in particular, back in January. It has once again shown that areas of this nation need funding to become resilient to extreme weather. Whilst Westminster is grappled with…

The government has today announced new proposals that aim to lower the number of people who are killed or seriously injured on the roads. These changes will only apply to England and Wales. In my opinion there are two headline announcements in this strategy which I think are fair. Drivers over the age of 70…
Yesterday I contacted the Labour Party to cancel my membership. There are many things that I agree with the party on – I like the continuous movement towards a public owned railway service and, as it’s clear, they are acting on the issues in the NHS. But the hope that they stood on, to clear…
I’m a member of the Labour Party, but after last weeks budget and a number of things I am really debating whether to carry on or not. The government will freeze tax thresholds – in affect increasing taxes as you would expect peoples pay to increase. If they wouldn’t go up then, that would be…
