Hello - The events in have shaken our community and have hit us all hard. There's a lot of work locally to do and that’s why I’ve asked Keir Starmer to allow me to step back from my shadow cabinet role for the next month so I can focus on our community in Keyham.

When I was elected in 2017 I promised I would put Plymouth first as an MP and I meant it. Our community must get the support we need from Ministers and it’s my job to get that support.

Over the past fortnight our community, local councillors, the city council, the Police and many more have stepped up to help. It’s my job as Keyham’s MP to be focused on the community at this difficult time. We will get through this and will get through it together.

I’m very proud of the work the Shadow Environment team do in holding the Government to account on issues ranging from fishing to farming, food to nature. The climate and ecological emergency needs pressing action. I'm very pleased my friend and colleague, Daniel Zeichner, the Shadow Farming Minister will be leading efforts while I’m taking a step back. I'm hoping to be back for Labour Conference next month.

The Keyham shootings have affected our whole community. Please look after each other but also look after yourself too. I am not always good at following this advice, but the shootings have knocked me for six as it has for everyone in our community. It’s OK not to be OK and help is available. Talking helps especially over a cup of tea and a slice of cake but please know you are not alone and you don't have to go through this difficult time alone.

I’m grateful to Keir Starmer, Parliamentary colleagues, local councillors and friends for the support they’ve offered Keyham, Plymouth and me. You can help too by donating to the fund. https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/wolseley-trust?utm_id=1&utm_term=ZbjgvX94M

I pay tribute to our brave armed forces and diplomatic staff who have done so much to give so many a new life as part of Operation Pitting.

We owe them a great debt of gratitude.

The Government must now urgently set out a plan for those tragically left behind.

On this day in 1856 Keir Hardie, the founder of the Labour Party, was born.

Standing up for working people, a commitment to equality and fairness were his founding principles. These principles are still the lifeblood of our Party today.

Keir understood how hard life was for working people. He was born in a time without a minimum wage, when families struggled and many people lived in poverty. There was no NHS and few protections for workers.

From age ten until 23 Keir worked in mines. He put himself through night school during that time, joined the Evangelical Union and became a trusted spokesman for his fellow workers. Because he stood up for them, Keir and his two brothers were outcast by mine owners and couldn't get work.

Despite this huge challenge, it led to Keir finding his real talent: speaking up for people and championing change.

By August 1879 he was a trade union organiser. In the next two decades he helped create a powerful union of Scottish miners, helped miners get better pay and started his own newspaper. He also became more involved in politics and started fighting for working people in Parliament.

In the 1906 general election, Labour won 29 seats. It took a number of years for us to win power but Keir’s values are at the heart of every victory we’ve achieved for people.

From founding the NHS, introducing laws to stop discrimination, the minimum wage, the first Climate Change Act in the world, maternity pay and more, Labour has always stood up for working people. And we always will.

Today our Party is led by another Keir - Keir Starmer. Our leader today shares our founders’ passion for justice and the determination to make life better for working people.
