I challenged the govt on two fatal flaws in the Planning & Infrastructure Bill: it contains no social housing target, so it won’t deliver the affordable homes communities desperately need, and it weakens nature protections, further enriching big property developers at the environment's expense.

@adeliepjz.bsky.social. Hi Adelie. I've just got round to listening to yesterday's Ukraine: The Latest. Just to say, I'm really sorry you've received the comments you have on your accent. It feels to me incredibly unfair. As Hamish, I feel both of your accents are brilliant; it's great to hear you!

As a vet, I’m used to practical, hands-on work. You have to get such stuck in - sometimes literally - so politics can sometimes feel like a different beast.

I am the first MP to be refused entry on arrival to Hong Kong since 1997.
Authorities gave me no explanation for this cruel and upsetting blow.
I hope the Foreign Secretary will recognise that this is an insult to all parliamentarians and seek answers from the Chinese Ambassador.

It’s 2025 and families are waiting a CENTURY for affordable housing.
As well as building new social homes, the Government needs to support councils to ‘buy the supply’, buying back and buying existing homes to save families from the stress of the private rented sector.

Hundred-year wait for family-size social housing in parts of England, study finds
Charities condemn ‘national scandal’ and call for pledge to build 90,000 social homes a year to meet demand
The wait for family-size social housing has risen to more than 100 years in parts of England, which charities have condemned as “ludicrous” and a “national scandal”.
Analysis from the National Housing Federation (NHF), Crisis and Shelter found that in 32 local authority areas across England, the wait for a home with at least three bedrooms was longer than 18 years – the duration of an entire childhood. Continue reading...
