13 Jul 2026Health & NHScelebratoryAnother extraordinary achievement by UK scientists at Oxford, who are partnering with the Serum Institute in India. The advances in vaccine technology during the Covid pandemic saved millions of lives - there is every reason to hope they will save countless more. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
9 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredTime to look to the future. I stand by everything I said about Keir and his achievements in office, but my responsibility is to nominate the Labour MP who is best placed to take the country forward as Prime Minister. Today, I am pleased to have nominated Andy Burnham. youtube.com/shorts/KmLwR...
7 Jul 2026MP & Parliamentsarcastic"The first rule of politics is to learn how to Count."
6 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentdefensiveHi Margaret. With the greatest respect, I did everything in my power to support the Prime Minister. I saw him in the Downing Street garden on the afternoon he resigned. Keir's message to his supporters is that he wants what comes next to be a success. I am invested in helping to make that happen.
6 Jul 2026Cost of LivingcelebratoryVery pleased to have written for @labourlist.bsky.social on the politics of opportunity and aspiration🌹 I cover the case for a UC top-up payment to parents of young children, the Citizens Advance and Plan 2 Student Loans. Full article: labourlist.org/2026/07/the-...
2 Jul 2026Technology & DigitalangryWelcome news. I left X last year and not regretted it for a moment. Under Musk, X has become a tool for promoting his extreme world view, built on an algorithm that suppresses voices he dislikes and allows racist abuse to flow freely. Twitter was once the global town square, X is nothing like it.
1 Jul 2026Defence & SecuritymeasuredThere is much to commend about the Defence Investment Plan. We must meet the £5bn shortfall and as a Labour Party, be open about the trade-offs and choices to come. Our next PM will be Andy Burnham and to maximise his chances of success, he must be provided with all the information he needs.
30 Jun 2026Defence & SecuritymeasuredStatement starts at 14:31.
30 Jun 2026Defence & SecuritycelebratoryThe largest increase in defence spending since the Cold War. Delivered by a Labour Prime Minister. For all who are engaged in this debate, the statement from the Secretary of State of Defence is worth watching in full. www.parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/...
30 Jun 2026Economy & Jobs (General)celebratoryQ1 ONS figures on the economy make for encouraging reading. Broad based growth in 11 of 14 sectors. Borrowing down. Inflation forecasts improved. Confirmation that the UK grew faster than anyone else in G7 in first 3 months of this year. A real achievement. www.ons.gov.uk/economy/gros...
23 Jun 2026Defence & SecuritymeasuredOn the tenth anniversary of Brexit, the cost to the country is more stark than ever. We debated Defence investment in the Commons today. It felt appropriate to remind Conservative benches that leaving the EU has weakened our economy and as a result, made it harder to invest in our armed forces.
22 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredThe resignation of a Prime Minister elected less than two years ago is a sad moment for my party and will be for many in the country. My statement is below.
19 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentcelebratoryCongratulations to @andyburnham.bsky.social On the doorstep, I saw that unique connection with the people of Makerfield. An optimistic, hopeful and authentically local campaign. Reform and Restore soundly defeated. The politics of division rejected. A great Labour win!🌹
17 Jun 2026Economy & Jobs (General)measuredThe story on inflation is a hopeful one. War in Iran has caused real damage and some of the impact may still to come, but the data shows the fundamentals in a good place. Further proof that the govt have made the right calls in managing the fallout from the conflict www.ons.gov.uk/economy/infl...
14 Jun 2026OthercelebratoryAm so grateful to @laurenedwardsmp.bsky.social for having the courage to bring the Terminally Ill Adults Bill back to parliament. It was a democratic outrage to have the will of the Commons (not to mention 65%+ of the public) thwarted by a handful of unelected Lords. With you all the way Lauren.
14 Jun 2026Tax & Public Financesmeasured"Cut welfare to fund defence", is a soundbite. For some serious analysis about how spending patterns and burdens have shifted, this thread from @ruthcurtice.bsky.social is a good place to start.
11 Jun 2026Culture & Communitycelebratory🌎 The World Cup starts tomorrow. No, not that one... Women's cricket is one of the fasting growing sports in the country and we are hosts for the World T20. The England team beat India in their recent warm-up series and ticket sales have already broken records. Cricket is coming home. 🏏
10 Jun 2026EducationmeasuredHi Jane. I have been in contact with other constituents and raised this in a meeting with the Vice Chancellor. I can certainly provide an update and am sorry you haven't heard anything from my office yet, you should have done so. I will be in touch this week. Andrew
9 Jun 2026Cost of Livingcelebratory2/2 The brilliant @smfthinktank.bsky.social team embraced my idea for a Citizens Advance and have built it into a serious and costed policy proposal. Their excellent report is out today. www.smf.co.uk/publications...
9 Jun 2026Cost of Livingmeasured1/2 Not everyone can rely on the Bank of Mum & Dad. Opportunity is still too determined by wealth and that has to change. The Citizens Advance would give financial support to young people when they need it most. My ambition is for the Citizens Advance to be in the next Labour manifesto.
9 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentdefensiveHi Ashley, I am not ignoring emails, you will appreciate I receive hundreds every day. We have met in person, corresponded by email several times and I will be in touch soon. I know how much this issue matters to you, but would ask you don't suggest, "I am not interested", you know that isn't true.
9 Jun 2026OthercelebratoryGrowing interest in the Citizens Advance. It was my original idea and I've worked alongside the @smfthinktank.bsky.social team on a report that lands today. Great that it's the focus of Polly's column. I hope and believe this can be in Labour's next manifesto www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
6 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredThe PM has made clear that he will contest any leadership challenge. As a Labour MP, I want Andy Burnham to soundly defeat Reform on June 18th and for Keir to stay as Prime Minister. Quick Substack penned tonight, setting out why the PM has my support in any contest 👇 substack.com/@andrewlewin...
4 Jun 2026Culture & CommunitymeasuredA powerful piece from my friend @jeevunsandher.bsky.social He writes with passion and eloquence about the common values that so many of us hold A timely contribution after such a traumatic week and a riposte to anyone seeking to use this moment to divide us. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
1 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentcelebratoryVery pleased to have been appointed as a PPS to DBT. In less than two years... A new industrial strategy defined, trade deals worth billions signed and the Employment Rights Act passed. Lots achieved, lots more to do. Looking forward to playing a part in supporting such a crucial department.
27 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredIt appears to be another day for offering opinions on the direction of the Labour Party... I'm biased, but if you are in the market for essays, let me recommend a series written by current Labour MPs - who are both supporting the PM and thinking hard about policy 👇 fabians.org.uk/publication/...
26 May 2026Technology & DigitalmeasuredThe social media status quo is indefensible. In touch with hundreds of Welwyn Hatfield residents on the subject of a ban for U16s and hosted my own consultation at a local school. My letter to Secretary of State and a link to govt consultation, closing today👇 www.andrewlewin.co.uk/my-letter-to...
20 May 2026Energy & Net ZerocelebratoryData from @octopus.energy shows demand for solar panels and heat pumps is up. The public is embracing renewables and it is welcome news. But the market alone can't fix the energy transition. It's right and necessary that our Labour Government is stepping up. Excerpt from my speech yesterday 👇
20 May 2026Tax & Public FinancescelebratoryThe plan is working. Six interest rate cuts in the first two years of a Labour government, with inflation falling again this morning. Chief economist at the ONS on the drivers of falling inflation.... "This was due to the government's energy bill support package".
19 May 2026Energy & Net ZeroangryIn the Commons today, Clare Coutinho confirmed to me that she has, "changed her mind" and given up on Net Zero. Genuinely sad to see them abandon the green agenda to chase Reform votes. The future is clean, green and renewable energy. Our Labour Government gets it. The Conservatives have lost it.
