Yesterday I spoke in the Health Bill debate to raise serious concerns about the proposed abolition of Healthwatch.

In case you missed it - I joined BBC Politics South last Sunday to raise a number of issues affecting our area.

The highlights from a very busy last 2 weeks as your MP:

By the Government's own estimations, investing in women-led companies could unlock a whopping £250 billion in economic growth. Something we all need right now. So if women entrepreneurs are an untapped engine for economic growth, why isn't the Government treating them like one?

🗓 This Saturday 6th December is Small Business Saturday. 🚗 There will be no charge to park in Council-run car parks across North East Hampshire all day. 🎁 This is a perfect opportunity to visit some local businesses, especially if you have some Christmas shopping to do.

🏦 It was a real pleasure to open the new Nationwide branch on Fleet high street, which will soon be the only physical bank left in the constituency. 💷 Although banking is increasingly done online, a physical teller can often still be a huge help.

(1/3) 2025 has flown by, but I'm proud of what I've achieved in my first full year as your MP for North East Hampshire. Together with others, I helped to secure some campaign wins on: 🚰 chalk streams, 🩺 local healthcare, 💂 military housing, and ☀️ green energy

For Deaf Awareness Week this week, I wanted to highlight an amazing session the Women and Equalities select committee had with senior representatives from the BSL Advisory Board and the British Deaf Association.

A day in the life of an MP in the constituency 🎬 I often get asked what I get up to in North East Hampshire when I'm not in Westminster. This day was a good example.

🎄Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas 🎄 My office is closed for a few days, while my team and I take time with our families. But we're monitoring the inbox for emergencies

塔克·卡尔森在以色列第 13 频道表示： “我不认为杀害儿童属于自卫行为。无论如何都不是。 而且，无论你如何反复讲述 10 月 7 日那些真实发生的暴行，都永远无法让我接受以色列政府、美国政府、伊朗政府，或任何政府这样的行为。 这种行为永远都是错误的。”

Watching this, I was thinking that's a nice gesture, give the man some dignity, and then the 🦶 washing really got me. There is a holy intimacy in it that is beautiful. I hope the video led to this guy getting help to get off the streets.

Six years ago today: The nation tunes in to the daily White House COVID-19 briefing for information & guidance, and the president free-associates about curing it by injecting disinfectant or light or heat or something. The next day, he refuses to answer questions, and then cancels the briefings.
