I’m supporting the Infants, Parents and Carers Bill, known as the Babies Bill, ahead of its Second Reading on Friday. Read my latest article in LabourList to find out why 🌹👇

labourlist.org

'MPs must give babies a voice in Parliament on September 4' - LabourList

The Babies Bill is a genuine cross-party opportunity to put the 1,001 days from pregnancy to age two on a stronger legal footing.

This is not only morally right, this is an investment in our society. We must now ensure this policy works robustly in practice as well as on paper, I look forward to the update of the school food standards to bring the guidelines in line with current nutritional advice. (3/4)

No child should go hungry and this is a fantastic step towards a society where all children have free and healthy food at school. This landmark policy will help to tackle child poverty and ensure the next generation are healthy and happy. (2/4)

After campaigning for this expansion for over 16 years since the inception of universal credit, I am delighted that today free school meals are being expanded to all children from families in receipt of universal credit. 🧵(1/4)

As Minister for Public Health, I am proud that this Government will make it illegal to sell high-caffeine energy drinks to under-16s. This will ensure young people can live heathier lives and focus more at school! 🍎📚

Energy drinks banned in England for under-16s after major Mirror campaign

The Government has confirmed a ban on sale of energy drinks - such as Red Bull, Monster and Rockstar - to under-16s from next April, in a major win for the Mirror's campaign

“Packed with sugar & highly acidic, dentists have seen the damage energy drinks do every day," says @eddiecrouch.bsky.social “The result is children struggling to eat, to sleep and to learn." "Taking them off the menu for under 16s is a victory for common sense."

Keir Mather has done the right thing. The gov is right to not move to an expenses only model for CROs. People like Sonny from my constituency, are the fourth blue light service and they are required to do over 100 hours of training. Let's recognise their courage and selflessness.

Happy publication day to SHADOW OF MADNESS, my new historical thriller set in Renaissance Italy. Think Shutter Island X And Then There Were None as a blizzard traps Cesare Aldo in a remote asylum for the criminally insane. It's a Sunday Times historical novel of the month! @panmacmillan.bsky.social

Abigail Dean never disappoints. Although my weekend companions are alarmed that I knew what serial killer this novel is based on purely by what he was doing when he is arrested… interestingly it’s cooking a roast dinner with his grandchildren round.
