Local people now have less say in new housing developments. As of May 2026, the new Planning Infrastructure Act means that any application for 150 homes or more is no longer able to go to a local planning committee.

It was fantastic to attend the Civic Thanksgiving Service a week ago today. A wonderful celebration of community spirit that brings together councillors, volunteers, organisations and residents from across Dorset.
School funding belongs in the classroom, not the boardroom. 📚 The unprecedented cuts at Corfe Hills and QE School are devastating. We need urgent reform to Multi-Academy Trust governance to ensure every penny of funding prioritises our students, not executive operations.
I'm deeply concerned that the EHRC guidance has let down the group of people most affected by these changes. Where is the concern for the human rights of Trans and non-binary people? I will continue to speak out in solidarity to ensure their rights and dignity are respected.
Project Welcome is a brilliant local campaign raising money to repair and modernise St Mary's in Sturminster Marshall. Today in Parliament I asked if, upon the closure of the Listed Place of Worship grant scheme, projects already underway will still be eligible for the renewal scheme.
A huge thank you for all of your PMQ suggestions 🙏 Over the coming weeks and months I will be looking for opportunities to raise your issues in Parliament - watch this space!

I firmly believe that the harm from the proposed Incinerator in Canford outweighs the benefit. Today I attended the public enquiry to speak on behalf of the community, and insisted that the appeal should be dismissed. Read my full statement here: www.vikkislade.uk/post/i-spoke...
So proud to have sponsored the powerful ‘This Is Menopause’ exhibition in Parliament. Created by local artist Pauline Ferrick-Squibb in collaboration with 55 other women, this exhibition calls for better menopause experiences for all. Huge thanks to AUB and UKRI for funding this art!
How wonderful to welcome Sir Ed Davey to Upton Heath yesterday to celebrate the power of community. Alongside Dorset Wildlife Trust, it was the community that came together to secure the section of Upton Heath that was up for sale and ensure that it is protected for future generations.
This week is #mentalhealthawarness Week. 💛 The theme for this year is 'action'. Raising awareness is vital, but real change comes when we take action too. We need action in our NHS, schools, prisons and housing services to better support people when they need it. #mhaw @mentalhealthfoundation
🚨URGENTE: O Jornal Nacional revelou que o ministro Flávio Dino sofreu ameaça de morte feita por uma bolsonarista que trabalha em uma empresa aérea. A extrema direita veio para espalhar ódio, violência e terror político. (Vídeo) Isso não é brincadeira e tem que ser levado realmente a sério.
Disability activist Alice Wong talked about cripping the world, or in her words, "to bend, compress, twist, subvert, imbue disabled wisdom into systems, institutions and cultures." Could we do it in the next hundred years, asks Laura Flanders in this week's closing commentary: bit.ly/4pxYUu2

Climate change is creating a hotter, more dangerous world. In Australia, heatwaves kill more people than all other climate-fuelled disasters combined. We must address the cause - climate pollution from burning coal, oil & gas - to keep us all safer from the impacts of our rapidly warming world.
