Another post-Brexit good news story. The number of UK university students taking up the new @TuringScheme_UK in its 1st year was 3x those who went abroad under the EU’s Erasmus. (via @Facts4euOrg) https://t.co/vV4jmLjDkE https://t.co/pcx02ojtrY — PolitiTweet.org

Best of luck to @hector_pardoe with his 10km Open Water swim for #TeamGB on Thurs. The former @ellesmerecoll student has already made North Shropshire proud by reaching the #Olympics. Anyone who has been #inspiredtotry swimming, can find a local club here: https://t.co/Ce9lfggcRe https://t.co/AqViUmnZCj — PolitiTweet.org

Good that latest NZ-UK talks have been productive. Reflects deep ties. Helps open #CPTPP. @trussliz brings a buccaneering spirit to trade now that this area is back under UK control. Proof that trade can be mutually-beneficial without political control. https://t.co/QtRXx6e6E0 — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see that #Shropshire is in today’s update on rural broadband. Govt is stepping in where commercial investment is absent and a Shropshire contract will be worth £60-100 million. However I will be pushing to ensure this is delivered without delay. https://t.co/XHXSiy0uyp — PolitiTweet.org

A great credit to NHS vaccine staff in Shropshire that nearly 75% of 18-24 year olds have already received a first dose. @STWCCG also doing good work with 'Bob the Bus' pop-up clinics.

Good to see that a stretch of the River Dee partly in #NorthShropshire on the Wales border will benefit from a Govt grant. The funds will support restoration, jobs & connecting people to nature. Comes from the 2nd round of @DefraGovUK's Green Recovery Challenge Fund. @pow_rebecca — PolitiTweet.org

Today, the British Heart Foundation @TheBHF turns 60🎉 A big thank you to dedicated volunteers & fundraisers in #Oswestry and throughout #NorthShropshire for helping reach this fantastic milestone. Here's to the next 60 years of life-saving research! More: https://t.co/fee0aEkcNY — PolitiTweet.org

A brilliant individual #Bronze medal for @CSJDujardin, the most decorated female @TeamGB Olympian and on such a relatively inexperienced horse, Gio. A triumph for @britishdressage. #Equestrian #EquestrianDressage https://t.co/U7bXea8yuY — PolitiTweet.org

Shropshire Peer Counselling and Advocacy Service in #Oswestry has done heroic work through Covid assisting 200 vulnerable or disabled people. However they now have the longest waiting list in their 26yr history & seek sponsors to tackle it. @ShropshirePCAS https://t.co/8mwWI7CTo9 https://t.co/PHcTEFnsIn — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see the International Monetary Fund's encouraging predictions for post-Brexit, post-vaccine UK. In 2021, we will have the fastest rate of growth among G7 leading economies. Our world-leading vaccination drive a crucial factor. https://t.co/ESrh5cuami — PolitiTweet.org

Vitamin A deficiency kills 500,000+ children, is No1 cause of child blindness & affects half the world. Approval for Vit-A boosted Golden Rice in Philippines is tremendous news. Shocking that it’s been blocked for so long by green groups because it is GMO. https://t.co/9XaEQDyti1 — PolitiTweet.org

Good to see #Shropshire Conservative councillors @stevecharmley and @lezley4tern making good on their election pledge and filling nearly 7,000 potholes since May. A significant priority for voters and a serious safety issue. Lots still to be done. https://t.co/NgxxOkpT90 — PolitiTweet.org

Wonderful that @pow_rebecca's announcement on Severn River management includes woodland planting to ‘slow the flow’ upstream. I've said this for 20yrs and will push to ensure it includes tributaries (eg Vyrnwy & Tanat) to protect Melverley and Kinnerley in #NorthShropshire. — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations former Ellesmere student Freya Anderson & team who set a new @TeamGB record in relay heats reaching the Olympic final. Freya also semi-finalist in freestyle.

Special occasion next week, a festival celebrating 100 years of @RJAH_NHS Hospital at Gobowen nr #Oswestry. Ticketed with Covid precautions. A well-deserved tribute to the founders and to staff & volunteers who make it a world-class centre of excellence. https://t.co/D4WUlTrATq — PolitiTweet.org

Wonderful to name the ‘Spirit of Shropshire’ Jet Provost at Sleap today. Restored by David & Marjorie Somerville and a team of enthusiasts at @SleapEGCV.

Good to catch up with my new Conservative colleague Councillor Jessica Michie, 2nd youngest councillor in the UK, aged 18. Elected to @OswestryTC in May.

Great to visit Grinshill Stone Quarries today. They produce a very special type of hard sandstone which carves extremely well and is used in top-class architecture. It was used most recently at Chequers, the home of the UK PM. https://t.co/yJLEBhdYoA — PolitiTweet.org
