A constituent who has prostate cancer is crocheting these Moustaches in his chemotherapy sessions to raise awareness men's health issues.
Movember has taken off as an awareness and fundraising campaign. It takes real strength to talk about personal issues like cancer and mental health.

🏦 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.

✅ I'm glad to see that the Government has decided to scrap the role of Police and Crime Commissioner - the Lib Dems have been calling for this for years.
💰 They cost tens of millions of pounds, money that could otherwise be used to fund more frontline officers.

📢 The Lib Dems are calling for a 5% VAT cut for hospitality venues and for the removal of the renewable levy from people's energy bills.
📈 This would inject £12bn back into high street businesses and put £270 back into people's pockets for them to spend on occasional extras.

I welcome the Government's decision to reconsider issuing compensation to #WASPI women.
Hundreds of thousands of women were failed when the age at which they could claim their state pension was changed without their knowledge.
This includes more than 3,000 women in North East Hampshire.

🏃Sport offers fantastic physical, mental, and social benefits. But we heard last week that women and girls are being put off at every level because of the abuse they face.
🤝 The Women and Equalities select committee heard how we must do more to ensure that sport remains open to everyone.

The BBC isn't perfect, and it makes mistakes, but it's also a vital national institution and trusted source of news for millions across the globe.
This should be an opportunity to improve the BBC, not destroy it.

The Government has announced changes to the National Curriculum. There’s some good in there, like stronger arts and digital education, which the Lib Dems have called for.
But it’s not clear how these changes will be funded and I’m concerned already overloaded schools will be asked to do even more.

🩺 With patient numbers rising faster than available resources, GPs are stretched incredibly thin.
🌋 Despite working harder than ever to provide for their communities, for many this pressure is simply too much.
📉 And, unfortunately for patients, this has had a severe impact on local services.

Nigel Farage wants to take away your rights.
The ECHR has secured our freedoms as we know them, from torture (1978), to the press (1979), to sexual expression (1981), and privacy (2025).
Today, I voted to defend these rights.

💉 Glad to have received my flu vaccine this week, nice and early ahead of this year's flu season!

Earlier this year, the Women and Equalities Committee called on the Government to extend the right to bereavement leave to those who experience pre-24 week pregnancy loss.
Now, the upcoming Employment Rights Bill will realise this change, making crucial respite available when it's needed most.
