13 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasuredAnother local dentists has recently written to patients cutting their NHS provision. I challenged the Minister in the Chamber. The approaches that the Government are taking are simply not effective. #LisaSmartMP #NHS #Dentists #Health Full debate: buff.ly/bfrV2sm
13 Jun 2026OthermeasuredFollowing questions from residents, I asked the Minister about what steps the Government is taking to improve emergency probate delays, which can have a massive impact at a critical time in people's lives. #LisaSmartMP #HazelGrove #Westminster #Parliament buff.ly/JwLDNNv
12 Jun 2026Social CaremeasuredI tackled the Minister on problems with the proforma that is used to get information from health and social care professionals to support Blue Badge Scheme applications this week: questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-ques...
12 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredI took the opportunity this week to question the Home Secretary on the declaration of overseas donations to everyone involved in UK political parties. #LisaSmartMP #Westminster #Parliament
10 Jun 2026Utilities & WatermeasuredConstituency news Local delivery services must see impact of Royal Mail changes Full story: www.lisasmart.org.uk/news/article...
10 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasuredGreat to see positive stories such as these new clinical system at Stepping Hill. If the Government will provide the funding to clear the repairs backlog, programmes like this will have even more positive impact – so we'll keep working on it.
9 Jun 2026TransportmeasuredConstituency news Rail freight debate targets getting traffic off local roads Full story: www.lisasmart.org.uk/news/article...
9 Jun 2026Economy & Jobs (General)measuredIt is crucial that the Government addresses the growing number of people not in employment, education or training (NEETs) – and first of all, it should be by making it affordable for them to employ younger people. #LisaSmartMP #Westminster #Parliament #Education #Business
8 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentOn Sunday Politics, I was asked about why I think there's a by-election in Makerfield. People thought that they had an MP for the whole of the Parliamentary term, and a GM Mayorwho would do the same. They shouldn't be faced with by elections because of the Labour Party's internal dramas.

8 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasuredConstituency news MP tackles Minister after further NHS dental closures Full story: www.lisasmart.org.uk/news/article...
6 Jun 2026TransportmeasuredI led a debate in Parliament this week on rail freight – how important it is for business, environment, and freeing up roads around the constituency. The chronic traffic problems are why I'm campaigning for better train and tram links and improved rail freight. buff.ly/ijikgXR
6 Jun 2026Economy & Jobs (General)celebratoryI embraced my inner geek this week with an amazing visit to Allied Bakeries, one of the largest employers in the area. They employ around 400 people, and bring around £1.8 million into the local economy. #LisaSmartMP #constituency #community #support
6 Jun 2026TransportmeasuredIt is deeply frustrating that the Department for Transport continues to shift responsibility for dealing with safety black spots on local roads on to local councils. There must be a joined-up, strategic approach to this. questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-ques...
5 Jun 2026Social CaremeasuredThe Minister responded this week about the Disability Living Allowance claim form. Residents tell me it is too long and too complex, and gets in the way of genuine claims. While I welcome that it remains under review, it should be improved to help people get the support they need. buff.ly/nOafC66
5 Jun 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredThis Sunday, I'll be on BBC Politics North West at 10am, talking about the latest issues facing the area. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
22 May 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredConstituency news Former Deputy Leader of Stockport Labour, Cllr Joe Barratt, joins Lib Dem group on Stockport Council Full story: www.lisasmart.org.uk/news/article...
14 May 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredWhile I'm still delighted at the Stockport results, I'm sure that lots of people are ready from a break from local elections, so this week's column is on mountain rescue, and stopping red tape getting in the way of them working at local events. www.inyourarea.co.uk/news/lisa-sm...
26 Apr 2026Housing & PlanningmeasuredThank you to over 3,000 people who signed our petition to protect our area's Green Belt, and demand that the Government reverse its increased housebuilding targets, and to ensure that new development comes with the GPs, schools and transport that is needed. #LisaSmartMP #community #support
26 Apr 2026Health & NHSmeasuredInflation caused by Trump's war in Iran is also having knock on effects on the ability to deliver major programmes such as the new hospitals programme, and to get the repairs backlog at Stepping Hill addressed. This needs to be properly tackled. buff.ly/Ja8O97h
25 Apr 2026Social CaremeasuredOften the first contact that is made, it is vital that call handlers for the child maintenance service are well trained in recognising that they are dealing with vulnerable people or victims of domestic abuse. More work should and is being done to improve standards. buff.ly/pGniXrL
25 Apr 2026Defence & SecuritymeasuredIt is vital that UK elections take place free of foreign interference, whether from rich individuals or from nation States. questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-ques...
25 Apr 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredThe local elections are due very shortly, and the outcome is going to make a massive difference, not just for Stockport, but across the country … www.inyourarea.co.uk/news/lisa-sm...
24 Apr 2026Defence & SecuritymeasuredTrump's war in Iran is having genuine, costly impacts onboard people across our area, and indeed across the UK. The Government must do more to prevent these shortages, and to let people know what they are doing about it. #LisaSmartMP #HazelGrove #Westminster #Parliament buff.ly/nnctV22
24 Apr 2026Culture & CommunityempatheticBob Humphrey Taylor was a pillar of the community, and a driving force behind so many projects across Mellor and Marple. I was able to raise this in parliament last week, and to ask for the opportunity to push the case for Marple Locks to be a World Heritage site, which would be a fitting tribute.
23 Apr 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryToday is St George's Day, and it's important to celebrate the remarkable place where we live. The campaign to make Marple Locks (and the aqueduct and viaduct) made a World Heritage site has been one that has hit the headlines – even reaching newspapers in Australia. Let's celebrate it! #LisaSmartMP
22 Apr 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredAs part of the debate on making our elections fairer, I raised the issue of funding of UK politicians not from overseas, but from anti-Semitic groups and individuals based in the UK. More needs to be done to stop this. hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2026...
20 Apr 2026EnvironmentcelebratoryThe repair cafe in Marple is such an excellent local project, and I took the time to come and support the national initiative at the Parliamentary Repair Cafe when they visited Westminster recently. #LisaSmartMP #HazelGrove #Westminster #Parliament #ReduceReuseRecycle
17 Apr 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredConstituency news Mountain rescue teams being put under threat Full story: www.lisasmart.org.uk/news/article...
15 Apr 2026Local GovernmentangryThe Government's approach to funding local government is not working for Stockport – they are leaving us millions of pounds behind equivalent local authorities across the country, putting vital services at risk. #LisaSmartMP #Stockport #LocalGovernment #Funding buff.ly/sRWzOcx
