I said that Fiona Laskaris would succeed in changing the law that prevented her from saving her autistic son Christopher from murder in my maiden speech. Tonight, on national ITV news, Wes Streeting the Health Secretary confirmed that the Mental Capacity Act will indeed be reformed. 1/3

Thanks to the ferocious determination of one grieving mother if in ten, twenty or thirty years time if another little boy or little girl is born in Christopher’s circumstances they might avoid Christopher’s fate. 3/3
As we left my grandmother’s funeral, they played Fred Astaire’s “The way you look tonight”, a song she loved and danced to with British soldiers. I was so proud that she was decorated as a nurse after D- Day. 1/2

An aspiring GP from Westcott left university £44,000 in debt in 2017. She is paying more in interest than on her loan repayments. I asked Parliament how can the current student loan system be working if it deters graduates from following the very careers we desperately need in this country?
I’m very grateful that the Minister came to Dorking, and I think she is serious about SEND reform, but she must listen to parents and finally act on Surrey’s routine lawbreaking. 2/3
SES will finish fixing Betchworth water tower (dependent on weather) by the end of April. They’ve also put another generator at Headley Pumping Station to reduce the number of water outages. 1/2

Doing your shadow work is a refusal to be weaponized. When the world escalates, any shadow left unintegrated becomes a tool for control. Fear becomes obedience. Anger becomes cruelty. Numbness becomes complicity. Shadow work isn’t… #ShadowWork #EnergeticSovereignty #SpiritualClarity #StayAwake
