Yesterday, on #WorldObesityDay, we were delighted to hold a parliamentary event highlighting the discrepancy in weight management services across England and the urgent need for equitable access to support. Tackling obesity requires coordinated action, it's time for change.

What a weird and wonderful book. Here are my thoughts on Alasdair Gray's Poor Things, paired with @WaterkloofWines' totally delicious 'Circumstance'.
๐ท๐ Another tasty pairing from @the_book_cellar

At the start of the year, I began a project in which I pair the books I'm reading with the wines I'm learning about.
Weathering by Ruth Allen was one of the first and one that will stick with me for a very long time.

Fairytales are the dictionary of the imagination - and @naominovik's Spinning Silver reminds us of the power of retellings, reimaginings, resettings.

๐ป๐บFresh Water For Flowers by @valerieperrin_ is an extraordinary read.
A love story. A grief story. A mystery. A romance. A poetic exploration of human resilience but so lightly told. A โbittersweet dream of a bookโ.

How did brand strategy get reduced to brand positioning by so many people? It causes no end of pain - a neglect of other vital and interdependent fundamentals, and an over-obsession with positioning as the only tool deployed.

BOOKS! Here are some books I've read, I'm reading, or am excited about reading. Context - I'm on deadline, and I've suddenly got *really* into Middlemarch. I'm at the dramatic double will bit.

A new post about an old book because it's coming to our screens very soon.
I loved this book. It's a bonkers thriller and so fast-paced but with a love story that keeps the absurdity from spiraling out of control. Pair with Barolo for boldness and fun.

Horrendous child poverty stats this week, complete breakdown of public services including the NHS which is on life support, homelessness soaring and climate catastrophe threatening our very existence
But make sure you email your MP about an embroidered flag on a football shirt

Damn right. I know many people will have strong feelings on this. Sometimes it is hard to get your complaint heard by companies like Nike. If you are from Portsmouth North email me at penny.mordaunt.mp@parliament.uk and I will make sure your concerns are listened to by the company alongside mine. ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ
