#NUFC's Carabao Cup win overturned decades of disappointment but there is no formal way to recognise their achievement. I presented a petition signed by constituents for Govt to congratulate Newcastle United and consider a national award to recognise major group sporting achievements.

At PMQs the Tory leader said that 1.5million extra people are on universal credit - but that's because they are moving off legacy systems as she knows very well! In fact, more people are now in work than when the Tories were in office, so was she misleading the House?

Such an honour to represent Newcastle at Windsor Castle, receiving my Damehood. I wanted my outfit to showcase my city and my heritage: Geordie, Irish and Nigerian. Thanks to #TynesideIrish, the amazing talents of Lamin, Lynne, Jordan at Newcastle College and Margaret Woodliff - it did!

At Science, Innovation and Technology Committee I asked the Science Minister to confirm that postdocs would not be paying the price of the Science and Technology Facilities Council overspend. He said "there is nothing to stop that being addressed" I hope that is a yes!

It's great Newcastle United Women success inspires girls to get active with Newcastle United Foundation. We need to do more in schools to tackle our city's high childhood inactivity and obesity rates I asked the minister how she was improving school sports and parity between state and private facilities

.@NCLairport tell me that Heathrow expansion offers huge upsides for #NorthEast businesses, tourists and universities. I asked if the Minister agreed that climate change is not about saying no to travel, but saying yes to an economy that works for people and the planet.

Leaseholders in #Newcastle can face supposed charities like the Mary Magdalene & Holy Jesus Trust who refuse to extend leaseholds; or extortionate Building Management, Fire Safety & Ground Rent Fees yet the Govt's Leasehold Reform Bill won't help them. I asked the Govt - why not?
