“I’ve represented Bolton North East since 1997 and I have always tried to be Bolton’s voice in Westminster, not a spokesperson for the Westminster bubble in Bolton.

I’m standing to support our police and keep our community safe. I’m fighting for investment in our schools so that every Boltonian can have the best start in life. I’m challenging the failing bus and rail companies to help Boltonians get to work. I’m championing a green industrial revolution to protect our planet for future generations.

I have changed laws to protect homeowners and delivered tougher sentences for dangerous drivers. I have promoted grassroots football and shifted more money from Premier League clubs to children’s games. I’ve been a vocal advocate for better transport infrastructure in the North and worked to have the Military Covenant brought into law. I have a record of delivery and the experience to take on the challenges we face.”
