25 Jun 2026Technology & Digitalmeasured“📸 Women should be able to enjoy a night out without being filmed & degraded online. I was due to meet the former Minister to discuss this form of online misogyny before she resigned. I'm pleased the new Minister has agreed to meet - victims cannot be left waiting because of political uncertainty.👇”↗
25 Jun 2026Environmentcelebratory“I was so proud to meet Ralph Allen School's student Green Team to hear about how they're helping their school cut emissions & boost biodiversity. When fighting climate change every small action makes a real difference. It’s so inspiring to see young people working to protect their planet.”↗
24 Jun 2026Environmentcelebratory“Big pleasure to welcome a group of Indonesian parliamentarians to the National Liberal Club who are here for the London Climate Action Week. Parliamentary diplomacy, working together with like-minded countries, is crucial to build a large coalition to fight the Climate Crisis.”↗
24 Jun 2026Educationcelebratory“At Ralph Allen School, students are leading the way in improving the nutritional value of their food - growing a vegetable garden & making vegan/vegetarian options the default.🥦🥕 I asked the Department for Education how they'll support schools in making these pupil-led improvements to their food👇”↗
24 Jun 2026Health & NHScelebratory“Great to meet with Heart Research UK and Ancient+Brave.🫀 For too long, women's heart health has been an afterthought: under-researched, under-diagnosed, and under-treated. Partnering with this campaign is about changing that. Women deserve better, and together we can make sure they get it.”↗
24 Jun 2026Educationmeasured“The Science & Technology Facilities Council has been told to slash its costs by £162 million. I’ve written to Lord Vallance urging him to ensure @uniofbath.bsky.social physics department isn’t forced to cut projects or jobs because of this. Their research improves lives - we must protect it.”↗
24 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“Today we are experiencing the hottest June day ever recorded. 📈 And our energy bills are at a record high. We need a new approach to energy — one that works for our communities, strengthens our resilience, and addresses the challenges of our changing climate.”↗
23 Jun 2026Otherangry“10 years on, there’s not much to say for the Brexit benefits and the sunlit uplands except £5 million for Nigel Farage from a crypto billionaire. We don’t want Trumpian politics imported to the UK - where a few billionaires fund politics and ‘influence’ the political decisions.”↗
23 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“A useful meeting of reps from Greenpeace, Oxfam, CAN, Global Justice Now & Global Witness on how to break free from fossil fuel price shocks. The UK must implement ‘polluter pays’ taxation, end fossil fuel subsidies, & remove Investor-State Dispute Settlement from trade & investment agreements.”↗
22 Jun 2026Culture & Communitycelebratory“Today, on Windrush Day, we honour the Windrush Generation and their immense contribution to modern British society. In Bath, I’m proud that the Windrush Centre at Fairfield House, run by Bath Ethnic Minority Senior Citizens Association, helps preserve their stories and keep that legacy alive.”↗
22 Jun 2026MP & Parliamentmeasured“Another Prime Minister bites the dust. But after years of revolving-door politics, people want more than a new face in Number 10. Britain deserves real change: a new deal with Europe to tackle the cost of living, social care reform to help the NHS & a fair voting system to give people a real voice.”↗
22 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“Solar panel farms are often opposed because people think they harm the countryside. This isn't true. At the @solarenergyuk.bsky.social & @rspb.bsky.social Parliamentary Drop-In, I learned that well-managed solar farms can actually boost biodiversity & help restore habitats lost through farming.”↗
19 Jun 2026Jobs & Employmentempathetic“Overseas domestic workers facing abuse or exploitation often struggle to escape. I met with Kalayaan in Parliament to hear how the current system leaves workers trapped, as their right to change employer is limited by the time left on their visa. No worker should be forced to endure abuse.”↗
19 Jun 2026Defence & Securitymeasured“In Manchester at the Königswinter Conference, a bilateral dialogue between the UK and Germany to find opportunities for cooperation on energy, defence and AI. Germany and the UK face very similar challenges. The UK being outside the EU makes collaboration more difficult but not impossible.”↗
19 Jun 2026Crime & Policingangry“Domestic abuse is the fault of abusers. Not women. Not footballers. It sickens me that Sarah Pochin would make these despicable comments knowing that women across our country will face rising violence during the World Cup. Reform don't care about women. Comments like this prove it.”↗
18 Jun 2026Economy & Jobs (General)angry“Brexit is costing the UK economy £90 billion every year. The Conservatives & Farage sold the country a fantasy that we're paying the price for. It's time to negotiate closer ties with the EU, including joining the Single Market & Customs Union, and strengthening cooperation on defence & security.”↗
18 Jun 2026Defence & Securitymeasured“It was a privilege to join Tibetans and campaigners at the Tibet Lobby Day in Parliament. We cannot ignore the reports of cultural repression, threats to religious freedom and restrictions on access to Tibet. The UK must continue to stand up for human rights and ensure Tibetans' voices are heard.”↗
17 Jun 2026Culture & Communityempathetic“While millions look forward to England kicking‑off tonight, many others fear the final whistle. Because when England plays football, domestic abuse rises. If you’re at risk or concerned for someone, reach out - support is there. 👇 www.thisisnotanexcuse.org/help-in-your... womensaid.org.uk”↗
17 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“Oil & gas companies must take responsibility for dismantling their offshore infrastructure & clearing the seabed. These costs shouldn’t fall on taxpayers. In the Energy Security & Net Zero Committee I pressed for answers on how we can ensure these companies properly decommission their sites.”↗
17 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasured“Despite having one of the highest mortality rates among mental illnesses, eating disorders receive 1% of UK mental health research funding. It was an honour to host the EDCRN in Parliament, joined by @richardquigley.bsky.social, to discuss the severe underfunding facing eating disorder research.”↗
16 Jun 2026Environmentangry“The Tibet Autonomous Region is almost completely sealed off by the Chinese Communist Party, shutting out all outside access. I’m deeply concerned that this secrecy could allow the Chinese authorities to carry out environmental damage in this region with serious global consequences.”↗
16 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasured“I met with @beatedsupport.bsky.social CEO Vanessa Longley to discuss supporting those with eating disorders. As Chair of the Eating Disorders APPG, I’ve long campaigned for better care. As the Government develops its mental health plan, I’ll keep demanding they take these illnesses seriously.”↗
16 Jun 2026Defence & Securityangry“It appears that Putin may have ordered an arson attack against the Prime Minister last year. This is a stark example of how bold and dangerous Russia’s aggression has become. We must stand firm with Ukraine and Europe, and redouble our efforts to deter and resist Putin’s threats.”↗
16 Jun 2026Otherangry“Reform, anti-abortion campaigners and far-right activists are trying to import America's abortion culture war into Britain. We've seen what happens when reproductive rights are taken for granted. We cannot become complacent; we must defend every woman's right to choose. More of my thoughts 👇”↗
15 Jun 2026Energy & Net Zeromeasured“Today I met the National Energy System Operator’s CEO at the ADE’s reception to discuss the need for energy efficiency & demand‑led energy. We must not only change our energy sources but also how we distribute them. Local decentralised & smart systems are key to a more sustainable energy future.”↗
15 Jun 2026Defence & Securitymeasured“It was an honour to meet the Ukrainian Speaker in Parliament today. He spoke of the bravery and the exhaustion of his countrymen and women. Our determination to stand with Ukraine to defeat Russia, and President Putin, is as strong as ever.”↗
15 Jun 2026Otherangry“A small group of peers intentionally blocking the assisted dying bill with endless amendments was unacceptable. Any concerns with proposed legislation should be heard & addressed. That's why if the bill returns, the Lords must scrutinise it properly - not use disingenuous tactics to shut it down.”↗
15 Jun 2026Technology & Digitalmeasured“After months of delay, the Government is now rushing through a blanket U-16s social media ban. This will not force tech giants to actually tackle harmful content at its source. We need to make these platforms safer. A headline‑grabbing ban that lets big tech off the hook is not enough.”↗
12 Jun 2026Crime & Policingempathetic“The World Cup can be a time of great excitement & celebration. Yet for people at risk of domestic abuse it can be a time of fear. High emotions & alcohol/drug use during tournaments causes abuse to rise. If you or someone you know is at risk, you are not alone. Help is available. Reach out👇”↗
12 Jun 2026Health & NHSmeasured“For the 1 in 10 women suffering from endometriosis, a diagnosis is only the beginning. There is still no cure, treatment options remain limited, & research funding falls far short of what's needed. Awareness alone isn't enough. Read my letter to the Health Secretary👇”↗
