WOMAN OF THE WEEK Last week we celebrated @sharongaffka and her work pushing for legislation against drink spiking. Today, I want you to know more about Labour MP @carolynharrismp. She isn’t without controversy (well behaved woman rarely make history!), but she is a total warrior on behalf of women and the menopause Establishing @menopausemandate with Chair @mariella_frostrup a few years ago (I’m an Ambassador along with many other ‘celebs’) she has this week successfully pushed in Parliament for a Menopause assessment to be included with the free NHS Age 40 health check. So far, menopause has not been included. It would be cost-neutral so a WIN-WIN all round. Carolyn is a woman fighting on behalf of other women, I’ve seen her in action many times, and she’s deeply impressive, kind and big hearted. She’s 63 (like me) and only became an MP (Swansea) in 2015 after a pretty hard life. Her son Martin died in 1989, and Carolyn was forced to take out a loan and rely on donations from the community to cover the funeral costs. Not wanting other families to suffer in the same way, she spoke about her grief in Parliament in 2016. She went on to press the Government to create a Children’s Funeral Fund which was announced for Wales in 2017 & for England and Scotland in May 2018. It’s important to know that there are so many good people in this world. Let me know of those you love to follow, who are fighting for political change (not necessarily politicians) xxxx

My new book ’NOW WHAT? On A Mission to Fix Broken Britain’ comes out on the 12th September. I’m very excited. Written simply it’s bang up to date with the election results, the behind the scenes stories since I started commenting about the Tories (oops!) 20 months ago, and thoughts on how we have to fix our politics. It’s a book for people who don’t normally think about politics, for those who know in their gut that something very bad has been happening for 14 years and that it can very easily happen again unless we change the system. Now we have a new government, and there is some hope on the horizon. But the real political issues that allowed the last government to mismanage and deceive us for so long run deep. This is a book for those who have been made to feel as though politics isn’t for them. But I’ll show you how we all made a difference in the election, and how, by working together, we can influence our politics going forward. ’NOW WHAT?’ is available to pre-order from the link in my bio 👍🏻👍🏻 @headlinebooks
