After two new years in which we’ve had a global pandemic and the return of war in Europe, it is not always easy to be optimistic.
I am, though, an eternal optimist, conditioned by many years as a Newcastle United fan. I am always hoping for this year to be better and am confident that we are able to get to grips with the rising cost of living and create a sustainable economic platform for the future.
The North-East is a fantastic region and I believe we can take a leading role in getting Britain back on track. As we return to Parliament next week, I will be working with communities right across the constituency to deliver positive change.
Left, Right, or indifferent— it doesn’t matter. We are all united by one common goal; to work together to improve the lives of our peoples.
As always, your opinions matter. My role as a Member of Parliament is enriched when I receive regular feedback. To that end, I would encourage all of you to get in touch about the issues that matter to you— and keep in touch!

Happy new year all!
