Jason is doing all he can to try and keep our leisure centres open. Our shambolic Labour-run Kirklees Council are proposing to close Colne Valley Leisure Centre in Slaithwaite and Holmfirth Pool and Fitness Centre isn’t safe either.
The Government has today announced a huge £48 million investment to improve the Penistone Line between Huddersfield and Sheffield, thanks to the campaigning efforts of local MPs Jason McCartney and Mark Eastwood.
Jason McCartney MP has welcomed £309,559,000 of funding from the Conservative Government over the next eleven years in West Yorkshire, meaning thousands of people across Colne Valley, Holme Valley and Lindley will enjoy smoother, safer, and faster road journeys.
Jason visited Honley High School for another fabulous performance from the SmashedLive team tackling underage drinking and peer pressure with positive thinking.
Today Jason planted a cross on behalf of his Colne Valley constituents in the UK Parliament Constituency Garden of Remembrance, in memory of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
Jason always enjoys hosting local students on work experience in the Houses of Parliament and also really enjoys welcoming constituents, scout groups and community groups for tours of the Palace of Westminster.
Millions of bus passengers across the country will continue to benefit from the £2 bus fare cap thanks to the Conservative Government’s long-term decision to redirect HS2 funding.
Jason McCartney MP met staff and patients at the Huddersfield Royal Infirmary Elective Surgical Hub, which performs elective surgeries for local people close to home. It’s one of only 8 Elective Surgery Hubs in the UK.
