I've been re-elected as MYP for the next 2 years!
I am ready to work tirelessly to improve life skills education in our schools and provide free school meals for all. Together, let's make a real difference in our constituency and nationally!

Yesterday's event was amazing.
Meeting with MPs and Civil Servants and many more discussing Votes at 16 which after years of work will allow 3% more of the population to take part in our democratic process.
Big win for Democracy!
Thank you @PoliticsProject and @Democracyroom.
Well done @CallumSimpson9!
Once again making Barnsley proud, you're a legend mate. Brilliant atmosphere. Can't wait for the newest challenge you bring to Oakwell next year.

Today in Parliament I spoke about the huge impact youth services and youth workers make in my own area of Barnsley and across the country.
The Government continues to work on delivering our National Youth Strategy, putting young people at the heart of policy making👇
🚍 A historic moment for South Yorkshire’s buses.
Today, South Yorkshire’s Mayor @olivercoppard made the landmark decision to take back control of South Yorkshire’s buses, putting passengers back at the heart of our transport system.
Watch the moment it happened.
I’m incredibly proud to represent our great town. Thank you all for your support—it’s a privilege to attend these events and be part of such an important democratic process.
Can't wait for next time! (6/6)
House of Commons:
Although I didn’t get the chance to speak, it was an amazing opportunity to listen to my fellow peers and learn more about their experiences beyond Yorkshire and the Humber. (1/6)
What’s next?
Our next visit to the House of Commons is expected in November. As a UKYP representative for Barnsley, I’m determined to get my constituents’ voices heard. Hopefully, on my third attempt, I’ll get the chance to speak! (5/6)
