As defeated candidates (of all parties) recover from bruising local elections, time for Churchill: “Success is not final: failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts.” We have work to do here in Gloucester and in the country - onwards..

In a world of more risk it’s right the UK, as the NATO Sec Gen said, is leading on committing to 2.5% of GDP on defence. We now need others to follow - and innovative public private partnerships to use the money well

There are many reasons why I strongly supported the Smoking Bill and a long-term plan to prevent future generations from becoming addicted to smoking. Here I focused on both the financial and wider health benefits for everyone

Reading the Cass Review confirmed my view that this is a very good, balanced and objective review of a sensitive issue that affects a small number of people deeply – decisions on health must be driven by research and evidence above all.

Very good to have a temporary pause in fighting in Gaza for the last 15 days of Ramadan - now we need to get much greater amounts of aid in through Israeli land corridors, and see the hostages released: my q to @AndrewmitchMP

A good example of the CPTPP's benefit is Wrightbus - family owned Northern Ireland bus manufacturer with a presence in 🇲🇾. TPP will reduce the cost of parts from 🇬🇧, open opportunities for substitution of imported components to 🇬🇧, and deepen the 🇬🇧 🇲🇾 partnership.

Always surprised by the variety of activity in Parliament. But I didn’t think I’d be chiselling a Harry Potter wand this week. Gr8 reminder that Men’s Sheds are special & good for the soul. Delighted to have @DWP SoS @MelJStride visit our own special Men’s Shed in Glos last year

Those who criticise this Bill assume that there is no deterrent value and that the cost is too high: I explained why both are misplaced
