    So, today I got to ring the bell to mark the end of my acute cancer treatment. Thank you @NHSuk and to everybody who has supported me on this challenging journey!

    Compare and contrast. Which of these men would you rather have representing us on the world stage. @Keir_Starmer pitch perfect this evening. Sincere, statesmanlike and as ever, thoroughly decent

    We can’t criticise immigrants for failing to learn English when we are simultaneously removing opportunities for them to do so!

    Just been to hospital for results, THEY GOT IT ALL AND IT HADN’T SPREAD! Still need further treatment to avoid recurrence. I cannot thank my surgeon Mr Sowdi and the Breast Cancer Team @MidYorkshireNHS enough, they were beyond phenomenal. CHECK YOUR BREASTS (PLEASE!)

    So, it has now been confirmed that I have breast cancer, following discovery of a lump. My treatment plan will be determined after a few more tests. Yes I’m scared but I’m gonna kick cancer’s a**e! Please, please examine your breasts and see a GP if anything seems unusual x

    I fully understand that some will disagree with this decision however I have a moral duty to protect those I represent and I unequivocally believe that a no-deal exit would bring about unprecedented and severe turmoil to my constituents. I am not prepared to do that

    Rather galling to see @RishiSunak & Govt take credit for abolition of the tampon tax today. He & 98% of his colleagues voted against the opportunity to scrap it on 26 Oct ‘15. It was a @UKLabour campaign in collaboration w/ @LauraCoryton and other activists. Tories gonna Tory

    I underwent a full spectrum of cancer treatment wearing a face mask at all times, even during radiotherapy. It was uncomfortable & hindered communication but was necessary. It’s deeply offensive and insulting, not to mention dangerous, that our PM displays such blatant disregard
