“I go to my fathers. And even in their mighty company I shall not now be ashamed. I felled the black serpent. A grim morn, and a glad day, and a golden sunset.”

Congratulations to Claire Ward, the new East Midlands Mayor, and to Nicolle Ndiweni, the new Derbyshire Police & Crime Commissioner.

I sincerely wish them both the best of luck in their roles. I will do my best to work with them, on a cross-party basis, to deliver for Derbyshire

An inspiring message we can all get behind!

Happy Wednesday!

Table set outside Downing Street for the hostages. Incredibly poignant and powerful.

73 years ago today, the Peak District National Park was created. The country’s first ever National Park. There isn’t a day that goes by that I’m not thankful for living here in such a beautiful area.
