In 2025 we celebrated our first Telford Day with the flying of our new Telford flag. A day for our residents and visitors to come together to celebrate, and mark the date the town was formed on 29 November 1968.

Thrilled that Govt investing in flood defence & prevention in Ironbridge Gorge & across the Severn. I've been pushing for this since July – standing up for residents & businesses, raising the issue 6x in Parliament, meeting Environment Agency & Govt ministers. More details to come, more work to do.

Might be an idea to shut up now Don

Downing Street source: "We don't want any tariffs at all, but a lower levy than others vindicates our approach. It matters because the difference between 10% & 20% is thousands of jobs. We will keep negotiating, keep cool and keep calm. We want to negotiate a sustainable trade deal”

Just listening to Donald Trump on Sky News at conservative conference - he’s absolutely & frighteningly bonkers! 😱

Amazing how quickly the security element of 'Project Fear' turned out to be an almighty bloody understatement...

This Govt has given serving personnel their biggest payrise in 20 years - that's politics in the service of working people, not pointless Tory gimmicks.

Really enjoyed talking to former CIA analyst and Syria expert David McLoskey for a special edition @therestpolitics.bsky.social after our trip to meet the new president. Fascinating on Syria but also on intelligence and how things might change under Trump podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/t...

Let’s give them truth and some justice before it’s too late.

Welcoming Bobbi McClements to this place #dogsofbluesky

Discussing Bluesky migration in terms of liberal flight misses the simple fact that most people use social media for fun not influence and this platform, unlike X and cruddified Facebook, doesn’t feel like you’re wading through shit to reach your friends. It’s not that deep.

It’s so important we support @bylinetimes.bsky.social. It’s the newspaper we’ve all been waiting for. Truly independent journalism at its very best
