In 1940 my Uncle Maurice was shot down and killed over Beachy Head aged 19. Here he is aged 12 with his sister Dorothy, my Grandma. As I join our community today in remembrance services in Kendal and Windermere, I will be thinking of him and all those who died to keep us free.

An honour to speak at Holy Trinity in Bolton le Sands this morning, and to meet some very discerning readers… followed by a wonderful 7.5 mile run to the Fairy Steps and then on to Sedbergh for a bit of doorknocking and to speak at the local church youth service.

An absolute car crash interview from the Secretary of State.

Angela Eagle couldn't spell out a single power these councils will have to stop our waterways being trashed - and there's no sight of the long-promised Water Bill to deliver reform.

The Labour Government is slashing its funding for Westmorland and Furness Council by 31%.

That's a cut of around £400 for every household in our area.

I'm urging ministers to stop these appalling cuts to our communities.

Thanks to everyone involved in Kendal’s Sunday Fun Day at the leisure centre - so many great conversations including with the teams running our family hubs and the Work Well initiative.
