Never has a Budget unravelled so much before a Chancellor has stood up to deliver it.
Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen press briefings and policy-testing from the Treasury, on an unprecedented scale.

PFI was expanded by Tony Blair's Govt.
However, for £13bn of investment, the NHS incurred a bill of over £80bn due to PFI contracts.
There's growing concern that Labour is bringing in PFI 2.0.
I sought assurances that Labour isn't repeating mistakes of the past. We will hold them to their word.

As November, men's health awareness month, draws to a close, it's important to keep open those conversations with the men and boys in your life.
Last night I joined @lbc.co.uk panel to discuss (among other things!) prostate cancer screening and the Men's Health Strategy.

It is so important, particularly on International Men's Day, to start a conversation with the men and boys in your life.
Men currently make up 76% of all suicides in the UK.
On average, 13 men a day take their own lives.

Recent press reports on possible tax rises have seriously unsettled the economy and added needless pressure on households and businesses.
Today I asked the Treasury Minister to confirm these leaks did not come from inside the Treasury itself.

A real pleasure to attend the re-opening of The Bulls Head Nailstone last night and see so many people across the community come out to support Alex and the team 🍻
It was so well attended you could barely move, let alone see the terrific renovation work by Tom and Charlotte!

Last week I reiterated the importance of distinguishing between challenges with mental health and mental wellbeing.
As I have said before, a rough road isn't the same as a collapsed bridge. Both slow you down, but one stops you entirely.

The Government's National Insurance rise is having a dramatic impact on the hospice sector.
The Government will argue it has given £100m to the sector, but this is CAPITAL FUNDING ONLY.

A huge congratulations to Hinckley Sea Cadets for their bonfire & fireworks evening!
The rain made a fleeting appearance, but fortunately not during the fireworks themselves!
People from across Hinckley came for the event - a huge well done, and I hope it raised a lot of money!

Men’s and boys’ health is something I’ve been working on since I was first elected.
As I say here, men’s and women’s health is an “and” issue, not an “or” issue.
