10 Jul 2026OthermeasuredWe discussed concerns about the language - I am esp worried for the need for “serious harm” and for it to be “abusive” Feels very subjective with the potential for loopholes.
10 Jul 2026Culture & CommunityangryIt's shameful that conversion practices, that seek to change, ‘cure’ or supress LGBTQ+ people, are still legal in the UK today. I stand with Stonewall in their campaign - conversion practices must be banned immediately. #BanConversionPractices
10 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredI wonder if that includes the ones who still sit in the house there are a small Number who must feel very uncomfortable in the current version of the Tori party
10 Jul 2026Health & NHScelebratoryWhat an incredible story. Just think, if she’d been born a few years later, she would’ve had the vaccine.
9 Jul 2026Crime & PolicingmeasuredWe must tackle nepotism, bias and toxicity in the way that we recruit leaders in our police force. Four Chief Constables in eight years shows that the current system is unsustainable, we need a fresh approach to hiring to break this pattern.
9 Jul 2026EducationcelebratoryI said in my maiden speech that the curriculum crushes creativity, and that many teachers often do not have the space to truly share the joy of learning. My experiences at Rushcombe show that there is another, child-focused and joyful way to run a school. www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/2625920...
9 Jul 2026EducationcelebratoryThe approach to education at Rushcombe is absolutely unique and inspirational. It was a pleasure to show the Schools Minister how the work of this school could influence the upcoming Education for All Bill. www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/2625920...
8 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentsarcasticIf its going to Binface v Farage I would welcome some of the Count”s policies in next yrs PMB Ballot My Top 3 🍦99s” to be 99p 🤑 ban auto-renew on subscriptions 🚂 trains that work - with WiFi He may be a joke candidate but given Farage barely turns up in Westminster that might be an improvement
8 Jul 2026Health & NHSmeasuredToday I co-sponsored the Mental Capacity Duty to Asses Bill, brought in by my good friend Chris Coghlan. We must right the wrongs of those who are harmed because of failures due to the Mental Capacity Act. The law needs to change, and I'll do all I can to see this change happen.
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentangryAnd even though he has said RefUK will fund it, the work required by the council, media, security and other organisations still has to happen and distract from bigger priorities. And if other parties don’t stand (this is all about his ego) then what do Clacton voters do - stay home? It’s a farce 🤬
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentangryIndeed - this is all about the ego of one man. Shameful but not surprising
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredCorrect
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredAt this point he is only under investigation so that cannot preclude him from being a candidate. There is a question about whether he is trying to avoid the commissioner continuing their work
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredMy statement on the news about Farage resigning 👇️ www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cn...
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentangryThis is why a cap on donations (including self-funded) should be brought in for all - whether foreign or onshore
7 Jul 2026Technology & DigitalsarcasticIntersting that he is “making a statement on his future in public life” today ….🤔
7 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredMPs shouldn't be able to pocket huge payments from TV channels without treating them as political donations. If money is used to support or influence politicians, it's political funding, and it must be declared and regulated.
6 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentangryThe rules apply to all. And he cannot deny that he knows them, or blame his staff. Accountability matters.
3 Jul 2026EnvironmentmeasuredThe River Stour is one of our greatest assets. Keeping it safe for our community will remain a priority for me.
3 Jul 2026Utilities & WatermeasuredWessex Water have reported that they are not aware of any recent pollution incidents in this area, and there is currently no evidence of a specific contamination event. However, they did add that natural waterways can contain bacteria and pathogens that may cause serious illness.
3 Jul 2026Utilities & WatermeasuredI visited the site myself with Councillor Richard Burton to test the water. While the river appeared clear and wildlife was visible, as a precautionary measure I also wrote to both Wessex Water and the Environment Agency to establish the facts.
3 Jul 2026Utilities & WatermeasuredIn late June, I was made aware of reports of local children being hospitalised after swimming in the River Stour. I have been raising concerns about water quality here for years, particularly about the stretch from Eye Bridge to Canford School, which is widely used by residents.
3 Jul 2026Culture & CommunityangryI hope so too but I am appalled to hear that despite the protest & disgust of local people the Tivoli have booked her for 2027 now! I am sure many people will consider their patronage now
2 Jul 2026Culture & Communitycelebratory@ottoenglish.bsky.social @standuptoracismuk.bsky.social Pls share
2 Jul 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryWimborne did us proud tonight standing up to racism after local theatre booked Katie Hopkins After discovering that few tickets had been purchased by people actually from the town, the crowd protesting her looks bigger than theWimborne residents attending Sadly couldn’t make it back in time to join
2 Jul 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryI know lots of people will be thrilled with this news. ⚽️⚽️ And I’m sure if you ask @maxwilkinson.bsky.social nicely he will write letters to your boss on Tuesday morning explaining your bleary eyes I’m banging head 😵 😴 COME ON, ENGLAND 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🦁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🦁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🦁
2 Jul 2026Economy & Jobs (General)measuredOur local businesses cannot be left to face the consequences of severe flooding alone. Flood recovery grants must be extended to all named storms, giving businesses the support they need to recover and thrive.
2 Jul 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredIt's an honour to work hard for you as your MP. Here's a few things that I've been up to in the last week. If you have any casework enquiries, email them into my office at vikki.slade.mp@parliament.uk
2 Jul 2026Local GovernmentempatheticPost Offices are more than just places to send letters, they're essential community hubs. As banks disappear, these spaces are more important than ever. I know this closure will be worrying news for many local residents. I will continue pressing for a replacement service to be found as a priority.
2 Jul 2026Tax & Public FinancesangryTheir total failure on the civil service pensions isn’t just inconvenient, it’s creating hardship & stopping people getting on with their lives.
