🤬 I cannot overstate how many distraught and angry farmers contacted me this week after the Government’s complete mess over payments to family farms. 👇

🚨 GOVERNMENT BOTCHES PAYMENTS FOR FARMERS: Yesterday's SFI launch was an absolute mess, and North Cornwall farmers are now paying the price for it.

🚨 Pushing for change for DOMESTIC ABUSE SURVIVORS accessing legal aid: One of my North Cornwall constituents, who I'm calling Jane to protect her identity, is a survivor of serious domestic abuse.

🚨 Today I took North Cornwall's dental crisis to the national stage at our Liberal Democrat Party conference - calling for urgent 'Dental A&Es' to be set up in every community.

I was absolutely horrified to read about the attack on the Cornwall Islamic Community Centre this week. This kind of hatred has absolutely no place here in Cornwall, nor anywhere else in our country.

🚨 Quick announcement that I'll be taking part in BBC Radio 4 'Any Questions?' programme this evening (Friday) at 8pm, joined by Luke Pollard MP, Rebecca Smith MP, and journalist Ella Whelan. Make sure to tune in! 🙂

🚨 Living in rural areas like North Cornwall can have effects on every aspect of our lives, including accessing basic public services at hospitals, like maternity care.

🚨 As the dust settles on our campaign win in Bodmin this week over greedy developers, the fight for proper infrastructure to be delivered in North Cornwall is only just beginning.

🚨 🏠 HUGE CAMPAIGN WIN: Wain Homes has officially WITHDRAWN its application to renege on £350,000 of promised infrastructure from its development in Bodmin! ✅

🚨 〓〓 Proud to #BackBritishFarming today - a reminder that our farmers really are the backbone of our economy, and our way of life! Buying British, and supporting your local farmer, is supporting food security and making sure their way of life can continue for generations.

🚨🏅 Exciting news! I'm officially launching my 'North Cornwall Community Champions' awards - and I need your help! Click the link in the comments below to fill out the nomination form - and tag someone who might have a good nomination suggestion! 👇👇

🚨 Today I raised North Cornwall's infrastructure emergency with the Housing Minister: The Prime Minister himself admits Cornwall lacks basic infrastructure - so it's time to fix this before "more life chances are lost." 👇

🚨🤑 LATEST NIGEL FARAGE / REFORM DONATIONS SCANDAL This is exactly why I voted this week for a Liberal Democrat amendment to the Representation of the People Bill - calling for a Royal Commission on capping political donations and scrutinising dodgy donors like this.

🚨 🦠 UPDATE ON BLUETONGUE DISEASE IN NORTH CORNWALL North Cornwall’s farmers have faced a summer from hell this year. Bluetongue has torn through herds right across our constituency, on top of an already crushing drought and several heatwaves.

🚨🚨 North Devon Hospital maternity services update Today I spoke out again on the suspension of maternity services at North Devon District Hospital, which continues to drastically affect so many mothers and their families in North Cornwall.

📍 I was very pleased to bring together key figures from across Bodmin recently, to hold discussions and form plans on a brand new regeneration project for the town.

🚨 Update on BODMIN KEEP: Cornwall's Army Museum 🎖️ ✍️ Today I’ve jointly written to the MOD, alongside fellow Cornish MPs Perran Moon, Noah Law, Andrew George, and Council Leader Leigh Frost, to make the case for Bodmin Keep's urgent need of funding.

I was delighted to officially open the new Launceston Banking Hub last week, which will be a vital asset for the town going forwards. 🤝
