Yesterday in the Treasury Committee the OBR confirmed that the Chancellor's remarks on 4 Nov were entirely consistent with what the OBR were forecasting... the Tories seemed to ignore that point in today's Urgent Question

I shared the thoughts and experiences of Basingstoke parents, students and teachers on SEND with the Secretary of State for Education. I was really pleased to hear that she is taking on board our recommendations, and that local families and professionals will help shape the changes ahead.

You don’t fix a fossil fuel crisis by doubling down on fossil fuels. I'm proud the Gov is breaking the link between gas & electricity prices and speeding up clean power at home... that’s how you deliver energy security & stable bills.

Cutting the cost of living and raising living standards in Basingstoke. Rail fares frozen, £150 off energy bills, ground rents capped. Change promised, change delivered. @torstenbell.bsky.social

I spoke with Kit from ITV about how the proposed changes to the SEND system in the Schools White Paper will build a system where children with additional needs get the right support, at the right time, closer to home - without parents having to fight for it.

We have some brilliant cadet forces across Basingstoke. I asked the Veterans Minister to join me in paying tribute to all of them & how the Government is supporting cadets and adult volunteers.

Last week in Cabinet Office Questions, I asked the Minister how the Government is making sure the Civil Service is driving forward on our priorities in Basingstoke, raising living standards and improving the public services we all rely on.

Energy networks made £4 billion in profits under the price controls set under the Conservatives... and households paid the price Today I asked the Minister on how the new system will clamp down on profiteering and help bring bills down

England’s chalk streams are among the rarest habitats on Earth & a crucial part of our natural heritage. In Basingstoke we are lucky to have beautiful rivers like the River Loddon. I believe securing UNESCO World Heritage status for chalk streams would build on the protections Government has made.

Today in the Treasury Select Committee, I asked the Chancellor how her capital allowance changes will actually drive investment and growth 📈

This just aired on my local news, and there are two big takeaways: 📌More confirmation that Becerra is the clear front-runner. 📌Voter turnout is extremely low so far. If you haven’t voted yet, drop off your ballot. Don’t wait. Make sure your vote is counted.

This is Spielberg’s second big Alien movie, some of us remember close encounters of the third kind. Look, I joke constantly about how we’re in quarantine because the aliens are scared of us, but the most probable solution to the Drake equation is that intelligence is a freak accident.

Я повен мрій про велелюдну згоду, Бо дням моїм не буде вороття, Бо хочу я, щоб на чолі народу Світився знак і від мого життя. Бо там, де я пройшов, удруге не пройду. В слідах моїх земля дуби підніме й трави, І виплеснуть вони знов силу молоду Під крила вечорів і під світань заграви.

When the people speak, it's not our job to tell them they're wrong. Our job is to listen. We can advocate against it all we want, but once that ballot initiative passes, you've got to respect it. These guys don't respect it, and they don't respect us. Let's vote them out.
