🚂 I presented a bill for a Rail Passengers' Charter to be created. I highlighted the importance of investing in public transport that is accessible, high-quality and consistent.
The Charter will put passengers experience and value for money first, ensuring good intentions become reality.

In parliament, I asked the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office if they will seize the opportunity created from US funding cuts to health research.
The UK should take action to embrace world-leading researchers to support the Global South and boost the UK economy.

Trump is acting like an international gangster.
The Prime Minister has tried appeasing him for 12 months and has failed. It's time we finally stood up to him and united with our European allies to make him back down.

The new Road Safety Strategy is promising, but further scrutiny is required to ensure prompt and effective delivery.
I raised concerns on the impact of road infrastructure and ensuring our roads become safer for all users, including elderly and younger drivers.

Liberal Democrats are calling on the government to go further and show long term commitment to retention by bringing all military homes under the decent homes standard

The government needs to restore the public confidence and deliver these projects on time and on budget.

The proposed Railways Bill offers some welcome opportunities, but it doesn’t yet guarantee the improvements that local communities actually need.
With the Bill Committee starting in January, I’ll be pushing for meaningful change that delivers real improvements for our residents.

Glad to see this - this decision reflects the determination of farmers who refused to back down, alongside tireless campaigning from the Liberal Democrats.
However, many family farms remain at risk. We will continue to push for this tax to be scrapped entirely.

Parcels repeatedly arriving late or not when promised is unacceptable. Evri's delivery reliability must improve, especially at this time of year.

Christmas is just over a week away, and I’m hearing from many constituents about problems with Evri deliveries, involving undelivered parcels and poor customer service.
Action is needed to ensure people receive their deliveries safely and on time, without having their festive plans disrupted.

MPs have voted to PASS our bill to establish a UK-EU customs union.
The Prime Minister must now listen to his own MPs, drop his self-imposed red lines and finally go for proper growth through an ambitious trade deal with the EU.
