The guts to change course

<h3>People, country, movement.</h3>I don't just visit my constituency: I was born here in Manchester, my kids go to the same school I went to. This is my home. When I get back from Parliament, I know people don't want to hear a bunch of Westminster jargon or poll-tested sound bites. We live in a wonderful country, people are smart and engaged and they want us to make the honest argument about what we're doing and why. That's how we'll get back on course and it's how we'll deliver the change that we promised.
