David Smith MP 🌹

I’m delighted that the A1 has been earmarked for improvement as part of the Labour Government’s huge £27bn investment in roads from 2026-2031 (Road Investment Strategy 3).

Finishing up my #RemembranceDay in Alnwick, I had the privilege of seeing the newly-installed Soldier Ernest, opposite the war memorial.

Alongside Ernest, I’m sitting with the artist who created him, Chris Bryceland whom it turns out went to the same high school as me!

It was an honour to take part in the beautiful Morpeth #remembranceday parade today.

Amongst others I was thinking of my Grandpa, who served in WW2, one of my greatest heroes, & whose stories of these years I grew up with. And also, my Great-Grandpa who served during WW1.

Happy Bonfire Night folks! 🎆

Enjoy celebrating with some great fireworks at an organised display, good company, and a big mug of hot chocolate.

And remember to look after those who don't enjoy the loud bangs as much. I'll be making sure Coco has her ear defenders on.
