17 Jul 2026Health & NHSmeasured“Earlier this year, the government committed to reviewing and reforming this law, so I have written to them, alongside these three mothers, calling on them to make time for a second reading of Christopher’s law, which realises this commitment. 2/2”↗

15 Jul 2026Educationangry“Appallingly we don’t even know how many avoidable child suicides there are because there is no national preventable death tracker. 3/3”↗
15 Jul 2026Educationangry“I have given the government evidence that potentially hundreds of SEND children are avoidably killing themselves due to public authority negligence and misconduct, including my constituent Jen Bridges-Chalkley aged 17. 2/3”↗
15 Jul 2026MP & Parliamentmeasured“Yesterday I spoke during the debate of the Hillsborough Law, which would create a legal duty on public bodies to tell the truth.

14 Jul 2026Defence & Securityempathetic“Greek authorities say they have sent two requests for Mutual Legal Assistance to the Home Office, but those women have never been interviewed. I will be meeting the government to help her family get the closure they so desperately need. 2/2”↗
14 Jul 2026Crime & Policingempathetic“Three years ago, my 22-year old constituent Hannah Byrne, died on the first night of her holiday in Corfu. Two British women left the scene without being interviewed by police. 1/2”↗

I have written repeatedly to the council, consortium and police but I will be writing to them yet again. 2/2”↗
13 Jul 2026Transportempathetic“Sadly, there was another accident at the junction on Meath Green Lane last week - I hope those involved are okay. There is only a matter of time before a fatality and residents are terrified, like Lucy who I met by chance on Friday. 1/2”↗

7 Jul 2026Educationmeasured“The current student loan system is unfair. I’ve been part of the Treasury Select Committee inquiry, which found that the government mis-sold loans, likening them to paying back phone contracts and that students were not told that terms could change retrospectively. 1/2”↗
6 Jul 2026Local Governmentmeasured“Read more about what this means for Horley here: https://www.postofficeviews.co.uk/national-consultation-team/horley-rh6-7af-114940/.  They are looking for a replacement here: https://runapostoffice.co.uk/branch/horley-post-office-horley-rh6-7af?search_term=horley-surrey. 2/2”↗

6 Jul 2026Educationangry“To my knowledge no one has been fired or held accountable. I have also given her evidence of an epidemic of avoidable SEND child suicide caused by public authority negligence, including by some of these same local authorities. 2/4”↗
6 Jul 2026Educationangry“The Education Secretary has described the sickening revelations from a SEND local authority whistleblower broadcast by ITV as “completely unacceptable”.

3 Jul 2026Economy & Jobs (General)empathetic“It’s incredibly sad to hear about Coughlans Bakery closing, because of rising national insurance contributions and business rates. The government needs to do more for local businesses in the face of soaring costs. ”↗
