UCAS & APPRENTICESHIPS

Today, the Government is launching plans to allow young people to use @ucas_online to search and apply for apprenticeships alongside degrees.

This will give them a better understanding of all the options available to them so they can get the best possible start in life.

I’m really pleased as apprenticeships are something I feel are not used enough.

🧵 2/6 #Doncasterisgreat #stronglocaleconomy #apprenticeshipweek Image
Both my son and I served apprenticeships and gained so much from the experience. New skills. Salary. No debt. A real launchpad to get ahead in life.

🧵 3/6 #Doncasterisgreat #stronglocaleconomy #apprenticeshipweek
It’s so important that young people have a good understanding of all the options available to them, so they can make informed choices and go on to have successful careers.

🧵 3A/6 #Doncasterisgreat #stronglocaleconomy #apprenticeshipweek Image
That is why today, at the start of National Apprenticeship Week, we are announcing that from this autumn @ucas_online will expand their service so that young people can see more personalised options including apprenticeships.

🧵 4/6 #Doncasterisgreat #apprenticeshipweek Image
From 2024, students will then be able to apply for apprenticeships through @ucas_online alongside an undergraduate degree application.

🧵 5/6 #Doncasterisgreat #stronglocaleconomy #apprenticeshipweek Image
By putting apprenticeships side-by-side with undergraduate degrees, we can help students make the very best decisions for their career – getting into good jobs that help to grow the economy.

SMALL BOATS

I am meeting the Home Secretary @SuellaBraverman this evening. I have made it very clear that I fully support the Government in using the full extent of the law to stop these small boats. 🧵1/6

#StopTheSmallBoats #Doncasterisgreat #controlledimmigration Image
I can assure you that my Conservative colleagues have the same view as me on this. It is unacceptable for economic migrants to jump the queue and then claim asylum and be fed and housed whilst their claims are investigated. 🧵2/6

#StopTheSmallBoats #controlledimmigration Image
They could have claimed asylum in France. That is not a war zone. It is a perfectly safe country to be in. 🧵3/6

AIRPORT CLOSURE - DAY 108

My day started with preparation for the weekly zoom meeting for all MPs hosted by @olivercoppard . It’s held at 10 am on a Friday to brief all MPs as to latest developments on @DSA_Airport & @PeelLandP .

🧵 1/18 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat
It’s an opportunity to ask questions re @DSA_Airport and to probe to try to find out what’s going on. The meeting started shortly after 10 and was stopped shortly after 11. Some people had other commitments so couldn’t stay past 10.30 am.

🧵 2/18 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat
I wanted to know why @MayorRos had said the bid out to @PeelLandP was credible and why Peel said it wasn’t. There was a detailed explanation given by the CEO of @MyDoncaster about it.

I have just come off a Zoom meeting about @DSA_Airport .

@PeelLandP have received a bid and @MayorRos says it is a credible offer. Peel on the other had put out a press release to @BBCLookNorth saying they have had no credible bids.

🧵 1/4 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat
I have now been given further information about this bid to @PeelLandP. On the basis of what I have been told this morning, this bid is absolutely credible.

🧵 2/4 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat
I have been in touch with both the Secretary of State for Transport @Mark_J_Harper and the Aviation Minister and made that crystal clear to them.

AIRPORT CRISIS - DAY 59

Being back in Parliament has been really helpful in our campaign to Keep @DSA_Airport open. This is a long post but one with reason for real hope and optimism.

🧵 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat 1/12
It’s given me the opportunity to meet again with the Aviation Minister @robertcourts and discuss the situation with him. I’ve been hoping that Robert is not moved in any reshuffle and to date it looks that he will remain in post.

🧵 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat 2/12
.@robertcourts has been really helpful to date & has really impressed me with his attention to detail and his motivation to work with @olivercoppard to keep @DSA_Airport open.

On Wednesday it was PMQs and I was able to speak in the Chamber.

Today I asked this question of @PennyMordaunt MP the Leader of the House of Commons in Parliament:

“The Prime Minister yesterday agreed with the Father of the House that local authorities should be allowed ….

🧵 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat 1/5
….to protect what matters most to them and that applies as much to @DSA_Airport as it does to green belt.

Doncaster Sheffield Airport has planning consent for use as an airport……

🧵 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat 2/5
….,Does the Leader agree with me that Owners like Peel Holdings should not be allowed to use that land for anything else.”

I was pleased to hear @PennyMordaunt say that if there is anything she can do to assist me in securing….

AIRPORT CRISIS - DAY 57

It’s been a whirlwind day here in Parliament. We have a new PM now the Queen has invited @trussliz to form a government. A cabinet reshuffle is taking place.

🧵 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat 1/14
My job in Parliament is to promote Doncaster so I have made it my mission to get to know as many MPs as I can. So I’m confident that our City & @DSA_Airport is known to every Cabinet appointee.

🧵 #SaveDSA #Doncasterisgreat 2/14
This is particularly helpful in times of need. @DSA_Airport is in that category. I have written to our new PM on that front.

I have asked her to meet with or write to @olivercoppard to remind him he has devolved powers and he can and should use them to save DSA
