Today I challenged vaccination programme bosses on institutional complacency.

This week the Mental Health Bill came back to Parliament. I raised the case of my constituents Cyril and Dianne who lost their son Leon as result of failures in the system. The nominated persons clause in the bill will be of great comfort to parents such as Cyril and Dianne.

Yesterday, I spoke in a debate on active travel. I'm proud to be Oxford's MP, home to the country's no.1 cycling school, Cherwell, where 58% of students cycle. Segregated cycle lanes are just one part of the Lib Dem effort to get 1 million people cycling in Oxfordshire by 2031.

The climate crisis is absolutely real and we must shift to renewable sources of energy. However, there are significant issues with the Botley West solar farm plans. The developers must cooperate with the planning inspectorate and offer more community benefit to the local area.

Yesterday in @commonshealth.bsky.social we were joined by the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Wes Streeting. This is what we asked him...

I'm delighted that Cowley Branch Line is to reopen to passenger trains. This is a really important milestone for Oxford residents and beyond, delivering the connectivity that our congested city desperately needs. Listen to me in conversation with @bbcoxford.bsky.social's Sophie Law. 📻

The Liberal Democrats believe that jury trials are the cornerstone of our justice system. Scrapping them will have little effect on the courts backlog, whilst curtailing a fundamental right. We have a plan to tackle the issues in our court system and still protect the right to trial by jury.

I was shocked when a midwife in Oxford told me stories of sewage dripping through the ceilings at the hospital and into the maternity unit. Whilst staff at the hospital do their upmost to provide the best care for patients, they can only do so if supported with extra funding from the Government.

Happy New Year! Wishing everyone across Oxford West & Abingdon a happy and prosperous 2026! Here's a little look at what I got up to in 2025...

The guidance is not strong enough. It needs to be more practical and enforce the basics households need to make their stay in TA bearable and workable (Fix the Five Basics campaign by @citizensuk.org @trustforlondon.bsky.social). This is not expensive and can be implemented immediately. 🧵3/4

One of the biggest controversies was Farallon’s connection to the Maules Creek coal project in Australia, a massive open-cut coal mine accused of destroying endangered woodland ecosystems, disrupting local water systems, and encroaching on sacred Indigenous Gomeroi land. 2.

Our grocery prices are about to go up again. Why? Because of Trump's reckless war in Iran. I grew up on a family farm. We needed fertilizer every spring when we planted our corn and soybeans.

yoshiki would love this

I woke up very early this morning to news of “major combat operations” in Iran. My prayers are with our service members and their families. The President didn’t make the case or come to Congress. We took an oath to defend the Constitution. It’s time for a War Powers vote.

Yesterday, the tracks fell silent at Utrecht Centraal. Twenty rebels who refused to look away from Gaza held the rails. On July 4 the ring road stops again. Each action answered with arrests. Each arrest answered with more bodies. The movement does not shrink. It grows. Join it.
