I visited Downing Street today to discuss the Nippon Electric Glass site in Hindley Green. Electric Glass Fibre's products are used in the defence, renewable energy and transport industries. Keeping these British skills and supply chains is vital. I will keep fighting to save the site.

Stomping and shouting - but never changing. The Tories weren't serious about governing when they were in charge, and they're certainly not serious now.

People across Makerfield are sick to the back teeth of sitting in traffic. They've been promised change again and again - it's time we deliver it.
