8 Apr 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryThe Women’s Institute in Bath does wonderful work bringing women together to build friendships and skills and campaigning on issues that matter to its members. It was great to meet them and answer their questions. Groups like this, which create connection and community, are so vital to our city.
8 Apr 2026EnvironmentmeasuredI met with the CEO of Bristol Airport to discuss their expansion plans. Flying is increasing as our world becomes more connected & families move abroad. But with aviation emissions rising - any expansion must be carefully considered & we must focus on decarbonising fuel to reduce aviation's impact.
7 Apr 2026Defence & SecurityangryTrump has threatened to strike civilian targets in Iran. This risks breaching international law. The Government must withdraw permission for the US to use our UK bases so they cannot be used to commit war crimes.
7 Apr 2026Cost of LivingangryBritish families are paying more to get around because of Trump's idiotic war, a war they didn’t start & don’t support. We @libdems.org.uk are calling for an immediate cut in fuel duty to bring down prices at the pump by 12p per litre.
7 Apr 2026EducationmeasuredI met with the BANES Parent Carer Forum to hear about the challenges children with SEND face. We discussed how its vital local schools provide proper support, & multi-academy trusts are held accountable to ensure this happens. It’s time we deliver the education SEND children deserve.
4 Apr 2026Transportmeasured🚍 Help shape the future of buses in the West of England! The West of England Mayoral Combined Authority is creating a new Bus Plan to improve services. Whether you take the buses often or only occasionally, your views matter. Have your say before 10th May👇 haveyoursaywest.co.uk/betterbuses/
4 Apr 2026EnvironmentmeasuredThe wonderful images coming back to us from the Artemis II mission remind us of how special Planet Earth is. It is our shared home. We should concentrate on protecting the fragile balance that makes life possible, not waging war on each other.
2 Apr 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryOn a hard-hat tour I saw the progress on the ambitious restoration work well underway at Bath Assembly Rooms which will reinstate Georgian features, reduce the building’s carbon footprint & create a brand new visitor experience that will help tell the Georgian story of Bath when it reopens in 2027!
2 Apr 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryI thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Bath Women's Institute. This fantastic institution supports women, helps them build friendships & inspires them to learn. They're a true force to be reckoned with! I was so struck by their warmth & friendly welcome & blown away by the variety of activities on offer.
1 Apr 2026EducationmeasuredToday, on the first day of World Autism Acceptance Month, I visited Oldfield School's SEND base, Hemmings, to see the incredible support they provide. I will be calling on the Government to ensure their new SEND reforms build on successful support like this & don't place more pressure on schools.
1 Apr 2026Cost of LivingangryThis April 1 is no joke for the millions of families fearing soaring bills. Water, mobile tariffs & car tax all rise today. The Government has failed to get our economy growing & Trump’s war on Iran is now driving up prices more. We need an urgent cost of living plan to help those struggling.
1 Apr 2026Energy & Net ZeromeasuredRetrofitting, improving the energy efficiency of homes, is a great way to protect people from rising energy bills. I spoke with Peter Capener from Bath & West Community Energy about this & will be pressing the Government to explain how they plan to implement the Warm Homes Plan to lower prices.
1 Apr 2026ImmigrationmeasuredExpanding youth mobility visas to cover European countries on a reciprocal basis would boost our economy & create opportunities for young Brits abroad. It’s staggering a deal is still out of reach. The Government should bring more to the table, including a bespoke UK-EU customs union, to secure it.
1 Apr 2026TransportmeasuredFrom working to make bus routes more reliable in Bath, to urging the Government to ensure women with endometriosis get diagnosed and treated faster - this past week I've been standing up for the issues that matter to you. Here's a snapshot of what else I've been up to.📸👇
31 Mar 2026Economy & Jobs (General)celebratoryThank you to Wealthtime, the award-winning Bath-based investment platform for a brilliant visit today. I'm proud to have this significant player in the financial sector here in our city, employing 160 local people & helping people across the UK to invest, save & build long-term financial security.
31 Mar 2026EnvironmentangryThe Government has signed the High Seas Treaty to safeguard marine life in international waters. Yet when it comes to our own oceans they continue to fail to take meaningful action. It’s outrageous. We must ban destructive bottom trawling in our Marine Protected Areas to protect our own waters.
31 Mar 2026Crime & PolicingangryI will be meeting with Jess Phillips, Minister for Safeguarding, to push for stronger legal protections against the covert filming of women. These exploitative videos posted online, accompanied by vile misogynistic abuse, must be stopped. It's time the law caught up.
31 Mar 2026Culture & CommunitycelebratoryIt's Trans Day of Visibility.🏳️‍⚧️ Today is a chance to celebrate the contribution and achievements of transgender individuals while also continuing to raise awareness of the issues, violence and discrimination they face. It's so important that the voices of transgender people are heard.
30 Mar 2026Health & NHScelebratoryInspiring to see Headway Bath’s incredible work providing vital rehabilitation, carer support, community outreach - and fun activities for people with acquired brain injuries, & their families. I will push for the government’s upcoming action plan on ABI to fully support these brilliant charities.
30 Mar 2026EnvironmentcelebratoryI'm proud that my Lib Dem-run @bathnes.bsky.social council is committed to making Bath and its surrounding communities greener.🌿 Investing in green spaces improves wellbeing for everyone, boosts access to nature and helps tackle climate change. I welcome bringing more nature into our city.🌳
30 Mar 2026Utilities & WaterangryWater companies are turning our rivers into open sewers, & the Government is letting it happen. We @libdems.org.uk are fighting to end this. It's time we force water companies to report the amount of sewage they dump & create a new ownership model where they're owned by their customers.
27 Mar 2026Technology & DigitalmeasuredChildren are on screens earlier than ever - so guidance to limit use is welcome, but long overdue. But parents shouldn't have to fight this alone. Platforms must be held accountable. The Government must back our @libdems.org.uk plan for film-style age ratings to tackle addictive algorithms.
27 Mar 2026EnvironmentangryThe grindadráp - driving dolphins into bays to be killed - is inhumane and must end. Most Faroese people don’t take part, and many oppose it. I’ve joined 50+ MPs urging the UK to review Faroe Islands trade deals if these hunts continue. Marine life crosses borders, so must our duty to protect it.
