[David Skaith @DSkaith]

Very enjoyable day at @UniOfYork showcasing all that the university has to offer and real honour to welcome a delegation of Polish biotech companies.

[York University Labour Club @UYLC]

RT @DSkaith: It was a real honour to welcome mayors and leaders to York today and showcase how much potential York and North Yorkshire has…

[Luke Charters MP @lukejcr]

Great to meet with @DSkaith this week to talk about all the opportunities we have for the region.

Looking forward to working with David and MPs in the region to deliver for our communities.

[That's TV York @ThatsTVYork]

"I want to celebrate the way that people have responded to these horrific events across our country."

York Central's @RachaelMaskell praised the community spirit and unity York has shown in the face of recent protests and disorder.

[Mayor of York and North Yorkshire, David Skaith @YNYMayor]

A statement about protests and community safety in York and North Yorkshire.

[Luke Charters MP @lukejcr]

Today, I visited @HopingYork with @RachaelMaskell and Cllr Michael Pavlovic.

Their volunteers serve over 100 people every Sunday to York’s homeless and most vulnerable. I am deeply inspired by them.

I will do everything I can to support this Government in combatting poverty.

[York University Labour Club @UYLC]

Brilliant to see our mayor @DSkaith committing to freight rail improvement

[David Skaith @DSkaith]

Last week I had the opportunity to visit the Gascoigne Interchange site near Sherburn-in-Elmet with @Mather_Keir.

There is loads potential to connect existing and new businesses at the site to a freight terminal which fits into our ambition for green growth and to become the first carbon negative region in England.

From here, the entire country can be accessed within only a few hours, potentially removing thousands of tonnes of freight off our roads and onto rail.

[David Skaith @DSkaith]

A really big day for York and North Yorkshire as I got to announce the first four funds we have created to help tackle some of the major issues in our region.
£27.5 million will be allocated to -

🏪Vibrant and Sustainable High Streets Fund £10 million

🌿Carbon Negative Challenge Fund £10 million

📈Business Innovation Fund £5 million

👩‍💻Skills Innovation Fund £2.5 million

I also announced additional funding to deliver more housing via our Brownfield Housing Fund, bringing the number of new homes being built to 977, over half of these are affordable.

This is just the beginning. To be at the stage after just two months is a testament to my team and both councils for working so hard and collectively.

[Mayor of York and North Yorkshire, David Skaith @YNYMayor]

I warmly welcome the commitment to devolution shown in the King’s Speech today and the confidence signalled for UK Mayors to act as the Government’s enablers for delivery.

[Mayor of York and North Yorkshire, David Skaith @YNYMayor]

Fascinating tour today of the #YorkCentral site as guests of @YRKcentral
Modern business premises, #affordbaleHomes and the rail connectivity to open employment opportunities for people across #NorthYorkshire.
Really looking forward to seeing York Central take shape.

[Luke Charters MP @lukejcr]

It was an honour to welcome @DSkaith and @jocoles1 into Parliament this morning ahead of the King’s Speech.

The York and North Yorkshire Region is ready to play its part in driving this Government’s bold agenda.

We will rebuild Britain, together.
