We live in the greatest country in the world. Let’s work together and fight racism wherever it happens.

My interview on @politicsenglan1 earlier this morning.

As our economy moves out of this crisis and into recovery we need to safeguard as many current jobs as possible and secure new ones for our region. A Gigafactory would create the high quality, green jobs of the future that we need. https://t.co/mkRjYNT341

Staff at many schools have done incredible work to ensure they can provide a safe environment for children & staff as we ease out of lockdown.

@StGilesPrimary in #Willenhall is a great example of what a can-do attitude can achieve.

Great video from my MP colleagues for #WorldEnvironmentDay. We all benefit from putting nature centre stage. We are committed to doing this.

Public Health England's review into disparities in risks and outcomes relating to Covid-19 in the BAME community needs to be acted on.

Another piece of our public transport vision is coming to life! The new University Station will strengthen connectivity for both pedestrians & cyclists. It includes wider platforms, lift access & heated waiting rooms
Another step forward in my plan to better connect the West Mids

[Mark Pawsey @MarkPawsey]

When we require people entering the UK to self-isolate it is vital we ensure that businesses will still have access to critical workers. I am pleased that in response to my question today in Parl @pritipatel confirmed the Govt will be recognising this through the exemptions list.

[Andy Street @andy4wm]

A very welcome indication of support for the West Midland's vital automotive industry from @BorisJohnson. Electric car, battery and new technology are critical investments to sustaining thousands of current and future jobs

Delighted that the Secretary of State for Health has agreed to visit Russells Hall Hospital to discuss the need for capital investment.

As the Health Secretary said, the Government are working hard to restore cancer services. I'm pleased he also praised the hard work of staff.
