I have an Acceptable Behaviour Policy to keep myself and my staff safe.
This applies to all methods of contact, including social media comments or messages, attending an advice surgery, over the phone, via email and post.
My staff and I will take the necessary action when an individual’s behaviour does not meet the standards of the policy.
Please engage respectfully. Social media comments that are anonymous or contain abusive or profane language will be deleted. Persistent abusers will be blocked.

Thank you so much to everyone who came to the Macmillan Coffee Morning event in Parliament today.
As the former minister who led the work on the National Cancer Plan and now, as the new Advisor for the Plan, it was my pleasure to sponsor this event.
It’s great to work with Macmillan on how we deliver this Plan – together.

Last week, I took part in a debate on heating oil as so many households in West Lancashire, particularly in rural areas, rely on heating oil and face issues with price volatility and consumer protections that users of electricity and gas might have.
I’m pleased that the government has previously invested £50 million in this sector to bring forward consumer protections and it was helpful to hear from the Minister Polly Billington on further support for households using heating oil, including:
- Boiler Upgrade Scheme, helping households switch to clean heating while reducing their exposure to volatile fossil fuel prices.
- £100 household energy payment for people with homes in council tax bands A-D, 19% of which are in rural communities.
- The temporary 0% VAT rate on domestic electricity extended to 1 July 2027, expected to take around £50 off the annual Ofgem price cap in April 2027. 98% of people who use heating oil are also on electricity grid and so will benefit from this.
- Warm Home Discount Scheme - £150 off electricity bills for eligible people.
- Energy Independence Bill to strengthen protections for consumers, particularly vulnerable households.

It was an honour to represent West Lancashire yesterday on Remembrance Sunday.
I attended a service at St Anne's Roman Catholic Church, Ormskirk, and lay wreaths at the War Memorial in Ormskirk, the Parish Church in Ormskirk, Aughton and Burscough.
Thank you to the councillors and constituents who lay wreaths on my behalf across West Lancashire: at Skelmersdale, Lathom, Upholland and Scarisbrick.
We remember those who paid the ultimate sacrifice for us so that we may have the freedoms we have today.

On Remembrance Sunday, we reflect on and remember the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for us and for our freedoms.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.

This morning I went to see the site of St Joseph's Seminary, which has recently been bought by Prospect Capital.
We discussed the concerns that many of you have raised with me regarding the waste on the golf course site. Prospect Capital tell me they have taken mitigating action to address the issues and are working closely with the Environment Agency.
I have also been in touch with the Environment Agency about these concerns over the past year and will continue liaising with them. They are undertaking an ongoing investigation.
Prospect Capital's plans for the site sound really exciting. They have a brilliant vision for the site including restoring the buildings, new homes for local folk, making use of the beautiful chapel as a place of remembrance and opening the site up to the public.

As Breast Cancer Awareness Month comes to an end, I've been reflecting on everything I've done to raise awareness for breast cancer in West Lancashire and across the country.
I officially opened the new breast cancer screening mobile unit which is in Skelmersdale until May next year. I'm encouraging local women aged 50-70 to attend their breast screening appointments when invited.
I co-hosted a roundtable with Baroness @thangamdebbonaire, in partnership with @esteelaudercompanies and @futuredreamscharity about the National Cancer Plan.
I visited Asda Skelmersdale, to learn more about the Tickled Pink campaign and how the store is supporting @breastcancernow and @coppafeel
I supported Breast Cancer Now's 'Wear it Pink' Day, raising awareness and funds for breast cancer.
I worked with @metupuk on a metastatic breast cancer awareness video, that you can watch on my page.
Last but definitely not least, I've been appointed as the Advisor for the National Cancer Plan, where I'll be advising on improving care for cancer.
If you take one thing away from this month, let it be this. Please check your chest regularly. There's a great guide on how to do so here: https://coppafeel.org/breast-cancer-info-and-advice/how-do-i-check/

This Labour Government has allocated 2 Young Futures Hubs to come to Lancashire, so I've made the case to County Councillor Stephen Atkinson, leader of Lancashire County Council, about why young people in West Lancashire need one.
What are Young Futures Hubs?
They have all the same services as a traditional youth club, like sports, creative activities and trusted youth workers, but they also connect young people directly to services including:
• Mental health support
• Skills and training
• Routes into employment
• Crime prevention services
• Wider opportunities and support
The aim is to ensure young people receive seamless, holistic support, without having to repeat their story to a different service every time they seek help.
I've made the case to LCC for young people locally, and I'll let you know what they say.

We’re funding research to dramatically shorten breast cancer radiotherapy treatment.
@yvettecooper.mp visited @royalmarsdennhs to learn about a breakthrough trial, led by @icr_london.
We’ve also appointed former health minister @ashleydalton_mP to advise on delivering our National Cancer Plan.

I'm delighted to have been appointed as the Advisor for the National Cancer Plan!
When I was the Minister for Public Health and Prevention, I wrote the National Cancer Plan. Since stepping down from this role, it's been a top priority of mine to help the government deliver this work.
I'm very pleased that I can now do this in a formal way, working closely with James Frith MP, Minister for Health Innovation. I'll be drawing on everything I learnt when I was a Health Minister, as well as my own experiences as a metastatic breast cancer patient.
My new role will involve advising on improving cancer care through the National Cancer Plan. This will include highlighting where delivery is off track and further intervention may be needed. I'll also be assessing whether the Plan is delivering improvements in quality of life and patient experience for people affected by cancer.
Yesterday, I went to The Royal Marsden Hospital with Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Yvette Cooper, to learn about the government-funded breakthrough radiotherapy trail that more than 1,000 people have joined.
Through this trial, people with breast cancer could be spared 10 hospital visits during radiotherapy through government-backed research, as well as benefit from action to diagnose cancer earlier and strengthen patient support.
I'm so excited for the opportunities that this new role will bring, and for the chance to help see the National Cancer Plan achievements through.
