17 May 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryFantastic to be at Wimborne Literary Festival listening to @ottoenglish.bsky.social share stories from Notorious Good people sometimes do bad things, bad people sometimes do good things but there are also some really bad people. Excited to read about villains who were hard done by in history books!
17 May 2026Health & NHScelebratoryA lovely morning - one of the biggest DGRs in the world. The BCP ride 2016 has already raised over £100k for Movember to supports prostate cancer research and men’s mental health Great to support my dad taking part in the event 🩵💚
17 May 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryIt was fantastic to attend the Civic Thanksgiving Service a week ago today. A wonderful celebration of community spirit that brings together councillors, volunteers, organisations and residents from across Dorset.
16 May 2026OthermeasuredI have committed to reintroduce the Assisted Dying Bill, but will consider a Nature Bill if someone higher on ballot selects AD. Given that only 20 from 650 will be successful I am not expecting to have a PMB at all in truth. Both will get my support if others are chosen
16 May 2026Environmentmeasured Assuming this is a bill someone intends to submit to the Private Members Bill Ballot as this is not a bill scheduled for debate? If it wins ballot I will look T details, as you know I was a signed up supporter of CAN last session
16 May 2026Health & NHSmeasuredThis week is #mentalhealthawarness Week. 💛 The theme for this year is 'action'. Raising awareness is vital, but real change comes when we take action too. We need action in our NHS, schools, prisons and housing services to better support people when they need it. #mhaw @mentalhealthfoundation
14 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredReflecting on yesterday's King's Speech. 💭 I will be digesting this over the next few days and am aiming to speak on the speech in Parliament on Monday. What did you think?
13 May 2026EducationangryThe issue with criminology is utterly shocking & I have taken this up with the head & the trust. If you want to write to me I can update you … but I think they have utterly failed the children - and it’s not the first year that’s happened
13 May 2026MP & ParliamentcelebratoryIt was such a special moment to attend the King's Speech today. Beyond the pageantry, today marks the start of a vital new legislative session. There is so much to be done to move our country forward, and I'm honoured to be your voice in Parliament as we start this next chapter.
13 May 2026EducationmeasuredThe blame lies with Initios planned cuts at these two schools. I am meeting with one of the heads next wk as I know they have been trying to hear the concerns of staff & parents
11 May 2026EducationangrySchool funding belongs in the classroom, not the boardroom. 📚 The unprecedented cuts at Corfe Hills and QE School are devastating. We need urgent reform to Multi-Academy Trust governance to ensure every penny of funding prioritises our students, not executive operations.
8 May 2026Health & NHScelebratoryWonderful to be in Wareham today to unveil a new community defibrillator! ❤️ Access to life-saving equipment in our town centres is vital. 📍 You can find the new unit outside Fleur De Lis on West Street. Please take a moment to spot it next time you're passing!
7 May 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryI am proud to celebrate Trans+ History Week. 🏳️‍⚧️ Trans+ people have always been here, contributing to culture, science and innovation. I will always stand in solidarity as an ally as we fight together for a fairer and more just world. #TransHistoryWeek
4 May 2026Immigrationangryappalling on many fronts 1st “detention camps” fail to show compassion for vulnerable inc women/children who’ve fled horrors 2nd “illegals” message does nothing to recognise nuance where trafficked/abused or claimed after here for fair reasons 3rd voter blackmail no evidence of putting where works
3 May 2026OthercelebratoryI was proud to recently attend an event in Parliament hosted by representatives from Animal Free Research UK and the Centre for Human Specific Research in support of Herbie's Law, exploring alternative solutions to animal testing.
3 May 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredOut on the doors today in Bournemouth & there were more people who wanted to make sure they DONT get elected
3 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredWe need the Representation of the People Bill to go further & faster!
3 May 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredAnd he has avoided scrutiny by cancelling his BBC appearance on Laura K this morning.
3 May 2026MP & ParliamentconcernedIt’s a shocking listen. When politics and power can be bought it calls democracy into question. As I knock doors talking to people & raise money via quiz nights, BBQs & modest donations I wonder how the rest of us can compete & keep politics on the right track 😢
3 May 2026Culture & CommunityempatheticThe pressure on top sporting professionals is extreme & for Molly who went to school with my daughter here in Broadstone to bow out now, on her own terms is courageous.
2 May 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryIt was great to join Broadstone Art Society for the opening of their Spring Show at Upton Country Park Such talent in all formats, pop along over the next week & support them. One of the artists, David Roberts also did a 15-min portrait of me… made a change to sit still for that long 🤣
2 May 2026Local Governmentmeasured🚒 Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service has a deficit of £1.5 million. 💰️ We must work across parties to encourage the Government to properly fund all our fire services so that we can protect all our residents - regardless of who runs their local fire authority.
1 May 2026Educationcelebratory🏴‍☠️ It was great to meet with James & the team (and Daisy the dog!) at Adventure Pirate last week. 🏹 Adventure Pirate is a brilliant outdoor education provider supporting young people in community and those with SEND. I even got to have a go at archery alongside some pupils from Lytchett School!
30 Apr 2026Culture & CommunityangryUtterly shocking statement & not the only candidate to be sharing these views. The actions of Israeli Government is very different to the people of Israel & Jewish people around the world who have every right to their safety Antisemitism, and other identity or faith based hate must be called out
30 Apr 2026Culture & CommunitymeasuredAntisemitism has no place in our society
29 Apr 2026Local GovernmentmeasuredWe shall have to wait and see what makes the cut. But I do understand the next session may be a more “normal” length of 1yr so all is not lost
29 Apr 2026Local GovernmentcelebratoryOur Peers made a huge difference & the. govt were so keen to get their legislation through we got a number of amendments past them. This is scrutiny, and shows how the HoL can function well
29 Apr 2026MP & ParliamentmeasuredParliament is now prorogued until 13th May when we will get the Kings Speech. I hope we will see Bills on Road Safety, Animal Welfare, Schools, EU Reset & High St Support Before I left London I did one last campaign session with Lambeth @libdems.org.uk this time in Waterloo & South Bank ward
29 Apr 2026MP & ParliamentsarcasticHe even made a point on BBC Breakdfat of saying it was his first day back in London for “goodness knows how long” after his 8 wk tour for the elections 😳
29 Apr 2026Crime & PolicingangryHow about the truth - Renee Goode did not deserve to die. Full Stop
