Today as a health minister, I laid legislation before the House of Commons to ensure the NHS does not become complicit in global modern slavery.

As a surgeon, I know how important it is to change how the NHS delivers care, including improving access closer to home. On Friday, I visited Thurrock CDC for its official opening, with the site able to deliver 75,000 extra tests, checks and scans a year. @MSEhospitals

Sorry? The only person tone deaf here is Cole This isn’t political reporting, it’s just a calous slur It may come as a surprise to Cole but the British public can see the horror in Manchester and the horror in Gaza and still see the humane path through both of them Hamish is one of the best of us

Great visit to St Paul’s High School for their Pupils' Parliament election! I had the chance to chat with and be interviewed by some of the students. Later, we joined a meeting with teachers to discuss exciting future plans for our 'Classroom to Careers' project.

When I first met the Palestinian Ambassador in November 2023, Statehood was a pipe dream. Last week I could look him in the eye and say UK Labour MPs in a UK Labour Government made it happen.

Yesterday, I was delighted to give school leavers in my constituency a chance to speak with key employers across several different industries, to give them an opportunity to learn what roles are available for them after school. Many thanks to everyone who participated and who attended.

On this #WorldSuicidePrevention I will be speaking from the Dispatch Box as a Health Minister in DHSC to discuss with MP colleagues the importance of suicide prevention. We must encourage open conversations to break the stigma and prevent people from suffering alone. 👉 www.parliamentlive.tv/Commons

No serious government can continue to function with the level of contempt the SNP has for our defence and shipbuilding sector. I welcomed the £10bn of Norwegian govt investment and 2000 jobs the UK Labour govt secured meaning shipbuilding will grace the Clyde in Govan for years to come.

📢 Good news for small businesses across Glasgow South West. Far too many small firms are being held back by large companies that delay payments, threatening jobs, cashflow, and growth. We are introducing the toughest late payment laws in the G7, ensuring that big businesses are held accountable.

Credit Unions should be able to serve the communities in which they operate, with particular attention to those on low to moderate incomes. In England, dormant assets held by the Bank of England can be used as capital to support the growth of credit unions, but this is not available Scotland.

Thanks to Sir Edward Leigh for screening #GazaDoctorsUnderAttack in Parliament. This gave MPs a critical opportunity to hear directly from doctors, and the film’s director and producer about the horrendous attacks medics face in Gaza. It’s essential that these voices are heard on our TV screens.

It was an honour to attend the official opening of the Janet Harvey Hall right here on the banks of the Clyde. This marks a truly historic milestone for Govan, as shipbuilding will now take place inside for the first time in 160 years - a transformative step for the industry and the community.

240,000 families in Scotland will now receive £150 off their energy bills which is hugely welcome news across Glasgow. Scottish Ministers at the heart of a UK Labour government made this happen. We're bringing down bills for good and delivering real financial support for families who need it most.

While Labour sees the defence of our country is our most solemn duty, the SNP is risking our national security through choking our defence industry from funding. Our Labour government will act in the national interest and step in to secure this funding.

I’m delighted to hear today that there have been one million pedestrian and cyclist crossings across the Govan – Patrick bridge since it was opened. The bridge, funded in part with £12.685million provided by the UK Government, re-established the important connection between Govan and Patrick.
