I said in Scrutiny I'd try to speak to the Children’s minister @JanetDaby (who made such an inspiring speech) about the challenges in children's social care at #LGAConf24
I achieved my aim and also invited her to Plymouth to see the good work we're doing in so many areas

The veteran community in Plymouth are a core part of our city. I’m committed to working with the Government to ensure veterans get the support they need.

It was good to chat to the Veterans Minister @AlistairCarns recently about the importance of championing veterans and the great work Labour are doing.

✅ Promised to give all military veterans a guaranteed roof over their heads, with those who have served our nation prioritised for social housing.

✅ Approved Veterans ID cards as valid Voter ID.

Today @jemimalaing welcomes the lengthy sentences handed down to 4 of the men involved in the Plymouth protests. Let it be a warning to others–no place for hate in Plymouth!

Yesterday, Councillors @jemimalaing and @ChrisPenberthy visited Plymouth Islamic Education Trust and met with members of Plymouth's Muslim community to discuss concerns following the protests on Monday and reflect on the city's true community values.

The message tonight from @SallyHaydon2 is ‘go home’ to anyone still in the city centre tonight.

[Plymouth City Council @plymouthcc]

Ahead of tomorrow’s protest in Plymouth, @councillortudor has issued a statement – asking all those wanting to come to the city and kick start any criminal or violent behaviour to stay at home 👇

[Jemima Laing @jemimalaing]

The message is clear - if you're coming to our city to cause trouble and stir up hate + division you are not welcome.
Plymouth is a city that has, unfortunately, had to demonstrate time and again that when things are difficult we come together. We won't stand for racist thuggery

[Plymouth City Council @plymouthcc]

Our Cabinet Member for Community Safety, @SallyHaydon2 suggests “staying away from the city centre for the next few hours might be sensible” in light of protests in the city centre tonight. 👇

Great cross-party Town Hall at the MOD hosted by SoS @JohnHealey_MP to update MPs about Ukraine activity.

My first qu to the PM last week was about UK commitment to Ukraine.

I asked the Armed Forced Minister @LukePollard the affect on Plymouth’s defence industry too.

[Fred Thomas MP @FredThomasUK]

It's made my day to hear that Mill Ford special school in Plymouth has been rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted.

My first visit as a Member of Parliament was to Mill Ford, where I was delighted to speak with the fantastic pupils, staff and the head, Claire.

Great effort from hardworking staff. Delivering strong SEND provision - and an excellent start in life for every child - is something I care deeply about. Lots of challenges to overcome and work to do across our region.
