I spent 25 years as an NHS nurse and even returned to the frontline during the pandemic, so I know the passion and dedication our staff bring every day.
With flu hospitalisation up by 55% in just one week and NHS services under pressure, I urge the BMA to put patients first.

Jury trials are a cornerstone of our justice system, giving ordinary citizens an important role in delivering justice.
I pressed the Minister for assurances that jury trials will be protected - to prevent miscarriages of justice and maintain trust in our legal system.

Yesterday, I asked the Minister in Parliament about the need for police forces to share safety information across neighbouring constituencies, especially where the impact of incidents extends beyond parliamentary boundaries.

Employment isn't just about a job; it's about independence and joy.
I heard from a disabled constituent how the Motability scheme was a gateway to both driving and a career.
I asked the Minister what further steps are being taken to ensure support leads to work.

Joined Scope's reception marking the UN’s International Day of Disabled People.
With 1 in 4 people in the UK disabled, their campaign to end the disability price tag, close the employment gap, and transform attitudes has never been more important.

Calling an entire nation or ethnic group “garbage” and saying they smell is totally unacceptable.
A leader, even someone like Donald Trump, should be setting a better example, not fuelling division.

Earlier on @jeremyvine.bsky.social, I agreed with regulators banning Lewis Hamilton’s gambling advert.
I’ve seen the damage gambling addiction causes far too often - the debt, the mental health toll and the shattered lives.
Celebrities shouldn’t be used to normalise this addiction.

A huge congratulation to Court lane Allotments in Erdington, for being voted "Site of the Year" by the Bham & District Allotment Confederation.
This is a testament to the countless hours, shared knowledge, and true community spirit that transforms a patch of land into a beautiful, productive space.

Joined Parliamentary colleagues for an important drop-in on tackling antimicrobial resistance.
We heard powerful stories from patients & clinicians about the urgent need to modernise outdated infection diagnostics.
It’s shocking that 50-year-old methods are still being used.

As Gambling Awareness Week ends, the fight doesn’t. We must stop our high streets from becoming a ‘Wild West’ of betting shops.
Erdington simply has too many, and I’ll continue to fight for the safe, vibrant high street our community deserves.

The Government is expanding free breakfast clubs, with 500 more schools joining from April.
That’s half a million more children able to start the day well-fed and ready to learn, while families could save up to £450 per year.
