I know that flooding is something which my constituents are worried about.

The rainfall over the weekend raised concerns, particularly in South Abingdon, which has been badly hit recently.

The EA have flood barriers ready to go in the event of future flood threats in the area.

Many constituents write to me to say how shocked they are that international law often fails to hold those accountable for their actions.

We have a duty to bolster international law, not undermine it.

Today I asked for an update on the UK's response to the ICJ advisory opinion.

I join Calum in his calls for urgent action. The Secretary of State should step in and issue an immediate directive to the Environment Agency to clear up the illegal dump as has been done in similar previous cases. The National Crime Agency should also be brought in to investigate this vile crime.
The contaminated waste piled high in a field near Kidlington is now washing into River Cherwell. In the last 48 hours, the water level has risen 4+ feet and is lapping against the illegal dump.

We stand on the edge of an environmental disaster. We need urgent action from the Environment Agency.

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.

It was great to join BBC Radio Oxford yesterday to take calls from listeners.

I am so pleased to see progress on Lodge Hill after many years of campaigning on this issue by local residents and Oxfordshire Lib Dems.

The works will greatly improve congestion around Abingdon.

Today is Armistice Day.

As we fall silent at 11am, we remember all those who have lost their lives in war and conflict around the world.

Lest we forget.

Research by Crisis shows that nearly 300,000 families are currently experiencing the worst forms of homelessness in England.

I have signed a cross-party letter in today's Times, calling on the Government to act now to tackle this issue once and for all.

Today is Remembrance Sunday.

Last week, I placed a stake in the House of Commons Garden of Remembrance, for all those who fought for the freedoms we enjoy today.

Lest we forget.

I was shocked by the revelations in the ITV News Investigation into the DES Scandal.

That is why I have written to Wes Streeting, asking for an update into the Department for Health & Social Care's investigation into the generational impact of DES.

On Tuesday, I attended the Remembering Gaza ceremony in London.

I was honoured to give a speech drawing on this years theme of Hope and Renewal.

In my speech, I focused on the need for us to come together and remind people what our glorious homeland of Palestine has to offer.

The ITV News investigation into the illegal weight loss jab market is truly shocking.

This is clearly a huge problem that the regulator is not tackling. That is why I have written to the MHRA calling on them to crack down on this black market now.

It was great to meet DES Justice UK this week in Parliament.

I am supporting their campaign for justice for the women and their children suffering the effects of being administered the harmful Diethylstilbesterol drug during pregnancy.

I visited businesses along Botley Road last week to hear how they’re coping after such a tough few years. Goodwill payments are a positive step after years of pressure, but the disruption has gone on long enough- Network Rail must stick to its schedule and get the road reopened.

Nada, an Oxford plastic surgeon, told me stories of children in Gaza suffering wounds, which without care will lead to life-changing injuries.

I pushed the Government to work to establish a humanitarian corridor from Gaza to the West Bank for those injured to access treatment.
October 28, 2025 at 6:17 PM
I have written to the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency calling for a consistent and determined effort to crackdown on the illegal weight-loss jab trade.

It was great to meet Oxon4Buses earlier today to discuss bus provision in Oxford.

Local Lib Dems are committed to continued investment in buses to improve the level of services, particularly around Oxford station, to connect people to the whole of Oxfordshire and beyond. 🚌

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. 📻

Earlier this year I saw for myself the incredible work which the Hospital at Home team from the John Radcliffe Hospital do.

I was shocked to hear that their funding is now being cut and asked the Government how this was compatible with their transition to community care.
October 21, 2025 at 2:22 PM
Over the past week I have been inundated with concerns from constituents about changes to IB funding and how this may affect Europa School.

As a teacher of the IB for 11 years I know how vital this qualification is.

Today I asked the minister to reconsider his decision.

It was great to attend Westminster Vaccination Day in Parliament earlier this week.

Vaccines save lives and protect the most vulnerable in our local communities.

I am proud that Oxfordshire is leading the way in vaccine development at Moderna's new facility in Harwell.

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.

Workforce is key to ensuring the sustainability of pharmacies in the community.

I expressed the importance of having community pharmacists at the heart of the NHS workforce plan and asked the minister for an update.

It was an honour to meet the Ukrainian Speaker, Ruslan Stefanchuck.

I will continue to push the UK Government to strengthen and deepen our 100-year partnership, including on healthcare.

Liberal Democrats are steadfast in our commitment to support Ukraine.
