The changes to leaseholds announced today are welcome, but the Government must go further to tackle rip off service charges.

Social housing tenants are often the ones left most affected by these rip off charges.

I am pleased that the Minister has agreed to meet to discuss this issue further.

The top down, Westminster-centric approach to how we build houses is not the answer.

The Liberal Democrats will always favour a bottom up approach, working with communities, like we did in the Vale of White Horse.

Neighbourhood planning is the way forward.

Trump is acting as the world's bully and there comes a point where you have to do something.

Sucking up doesn't work. We have to put threats on the table.

Trump adores the Royal Family and the royal visit to America is leverage that no one else has. We should use it.

South East Water have done the extraordinary by making Thames Water look good.

The Liberal Democrats have long called for a better regulator to fix our broken water industry.

We are also calling for water companies such as Thames Water to be made a public benefit company.

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.

Last week, the Health and Social Care Committee questioned Stephen Kinnock on the findings of the report which the committee commissioned into palliative care.

The reports findings were worse than we were expecting.

It is clear that palliative care services are not good enough and must improve.

The chronic mismanagement of Thames Water is why I called a debate on its future in Parliament yesterday.

Sadly, stories like Len and Jenny's of sewage in peoples homes are all too common.

If Thames Water cannot be trusted to do the basics, then what can they be trusted to do?

The Liberal Democrats have long argued for shifting the big levers on the economy to make a difference to people's lives.

That's why we are pushing for a Customs Union with the EU.

We have to see shifts in the economy so that small business can thrive.

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...

Merry Christmas! Whether you’re spending today with family and friends, on your own, or working, I hope you have a peaceful and restful day.

Very sorry to hear that former Conservative Oxfordshire County Council Leader Cllr Ian Hudspeth has passed away. We crossed swords many a time but he was a good man and dilligent public servant. My thoughts with his loved ones and friends at this difficult time.

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...

This morning I spoke to Radio 4 Today about weight loss jabs.

Many perceive them as being a silver bullet but the @commonshealth.bsky.social Committee don't think they are.

We’re running an inquiry looking at this but also the food industry which lies at the root case if the problem

Alongside other civic and faith leaders in Oxfordshire, I stand against all forms of hate. Here is our joint statement:

It’s encouraging to see CCW urging Ofwat to hold Thames Water to its responsibilities. Any Thames Water deal must ensure the company tackles sewage pollution and does not pass additional costs on to customers who are already feeling the strain.

Since 2019, the NHS has spent more money on maternity negligence claims than the entire NHS maternity budget for same period.

Investment now in maternity services will reap rewards very quickly.

The Government does not need to wait for the Amos review to start making a change.

Our voting system is broken.

It's time for a change that truly reflects what voters want.

It's #SmallBusinessSaturday — a great chance to support the brilliant independents that keep our high streets thriving.

I recently visited The Handlebar Café in Oxford for brunch with my team. Fantastic food, friendly people, and a reminder of how important our local businesses are.

The Tories botched Brexit deal has left us £90 billion worse per year.

The Lib Dems have a plan for a Customs Union with the EU that would bring around £25 billion to the economy.

The Lib Dems will bring a vote on this next week and I hope Labour backbenchers will support us.

The Secretary of State for Health is absolutely right that the NHS must innovate and renew.

I am concerned that the focus on physical health in last weeks budget risks deprioritising mental health instead.

Today I asked the Prime Minister if he would look at Lib Dem plans to introduce a regulator and a cap on outrageous, rip-off service charges.

The stories of Allison and Rebecca being ripped off by the wild west of the service charge sector are sadly all too common.

The news that the NHS may now have to pay up to £3 billion more for drugs from the US is concerning.

There needs to be clarity from the Government about who exactly will pay for this.

The Government shouldn't prioritise economic growth over the health of the NHS.
