One year in, I still feel I'm doing my apprenticeship, learning new things about the way Parliament works and the city works,
00:06
but genuinely, every day is a privilege.
00:08
The ability to go to London and make the case for Peterborough,
00:13
when we know we're crying out for investment and change, is a really important job to have.
00:20
I'm grounded by living in Peterborough and doing the job on behalf of Peterborough,
00:25
but then I get to spend some time in London making the case for investment in our city.
00:30
And I always said when I was elected, there were some really big challenges facing the city,
00:34
but we're beginning to see some progress now.
00:36
Getting the extra money for the new police officers in the city centre and the east of the city,
00:40
getting the green lights of the £48 million for the train station quarter has been delivered,
00:46
so we can get spades in the ground and do the project and get it done.
00:50
And the more recent announcement that we've got the opportunity now to build a new indoor pool alongside ARU
00:56
and get back to an indoor pool for the city,
00:59
shows we can make progress, but I know people want much more,
01:02
and my job is to go out there and do the job for Peterborough.
