20 May 2026Economy & Jobs (General)measured“Tonight, I voted for a UK-EU customs union. We need to restore our trading relationship with Europe and turbo-charge our economy. Whenever I meet with #Woking businesses, they tell me how difficult it is to trade with the EU post-Brexit - that needs to change.”↗
20 May 2026Crime & Policingmeasured“Surrey @libdems.org.uk MPs and I have written to the Police and Crime Commissioner following the latest police inspection, which highlights serious ongoing structural and service concerns at Surrey Police - despite its five‑year strategy. #Woking residents deserve better.”↗
19 May 2026Culture & Communitycelebratory“Enjoyed celebrating 20 years of Soccer Aid, which has raised an extraordinary £121 million to support vulnerable children worldwide. It was fantastic to hear about all the incredible projects this money has supported abroad – and meet legendary former goalkeeper David Seaman.”↗
18 May 2026Housing & Planningmeasured“I'm ignoring the political soap opera and focusing on delivering for #Woking. This week, I'll be working on leasehold reform, pursuing a Private Member's Bill, holding South Western Railway to account, attending the new Mayor's swearing-in, and visiting Beaufort Primary School.”↗
17 May 2026Local Governmentmeasured“I’m celebrating the @libdems.org.uk’ success in gaining control of West #Surrey Council in my latest #Woking News and Mail column. We are inheriting a new council that will effectively be bankrupt on day one - but we will do our best to turn it around. www.wokingnewsandmail.co.uk/opinion/hist...”↗
16 May 2026Local Governmentmeasured“Pleased to welcome @pauldfollows.bsky.social to his new role as West #Surrey Council’s Leader. I look forward to working in partnership with him to tackle the new council’s unprecedented historic debts, unsafe roads and a children’s services department failing vulnerable children.”↗
16 May 2026Local Governmentcelebratory“Delighted that my friend and colleague, @pauldfollows.bsky.social has been chosen as the #LibDem Leader of our new West #Surrey Council. Read my full statement about what it means for #Woking ⬇️”↗
15 May 2026Local Governmentcelebratory“I can’t believe it was a week ago today, that @zoefranklinld.bsky.social and I were welcoming @eddavey.libdems.org.uk to #Surrey to celebrate the @libdems.org.uk winning control of our new council! 🔶 🗳️ 🎉”↗
14 May 2026Housing & Planningangry“The Conservatives' unlawful removal of over £4 million from #Woking's council housing budget has resulted in a huge blacklog of issues - it's hardly surprising housing is the biggest issue in my post bag. I've asked the government what steps it's taking to ensure this does not happen again.”↗
13 May 2026Housing & Planningmeasured“Yesterday, I attended a public exhibition about plans to build 574 apartments in two buildings in the Chobham Road island site in #Woking town centre with Councillor Liam Lyons - great to talk to local people about their views and meet the potential developers.”↗
12 May 2026Environmentmeasured“9 out of the top 10 councils for recycling in the country are Lib Dem. Whereas, when the Greens run Brighton, it had one of the lowest recycling rates in the country. So, I wouldn't be disappointed! I am confident the new Lib Dem Council will do it can to improve air quality and lower its emissions.”↗
11 May 2026Local Governmentcelebratory“I want to thank everyone who voted in last week's local elections. The @libdems.org.uk gained control of West #Surrey Council and we won every seat in #Woking!

4 May 2026Crime & Policingangry“Since being elected as #Woking's MP, I've made protecting vulnerable children a priority. I recently spoke in favour of Maya's Law - it's shameful that even where authorities are aware of the risk, failures in information sharing have prevented them from intervening.”↗
30 Apr 2026Defence & Securitymeasured“I regularly meet church leaders in #Woking who raise the plight of Christians abroad. I've said in Parliament that tackling extremism and the persecution of Christians abroad needs to be one of the Church of England's top priorities.”↗
29 Apr 2026Health & NHSmeasured“West Byfleet in #Woking has seen a lot of development, but no investment in health services. I'm backing the @libdems.org.uk' no doctors, no development policy. Developers would be required to build practices and fund new GPs before residents move in. My petition👇 buff.ly/BBFaKWB”↗
28 Apr 2026Environmentmeasured“#Woking residents care deeply about animal welfare and the environment. It's something I'm frequently contacted about.

27 Apr 2026Cost of Livingcelebratory“Delighted to have opened the Woking Community Grocery! 🎉✂️ Thank you and well done to all those at Welcome Church and their amazing backers like Birds Eye, Boz’s and Porky Whites for making this happen - it will really help those in #Woking with the rising the cost of living!”↗

25 Apr 2026Environmentmeasured“Earlier this week, I was pleased to meet with #Woking Environmental Action - known as WEAct - to speak about climate change and the National Emergency Briefing.”↗
23 Apr 2026Defence & Securityangry“With the world's attention focused on Trump's illegal war on Iran, Netanyahu is annexing land in Gaza, Lebanon and the West Bank. I've pushed the British Government to join the European Union in taking a tougher line on the Israeli Government.”↗
23 Apr 2026Local Governmentcelebratory“Postal votes have began landing across #Woking constituency. I've cast mine for local @libdems.org.uk Louise and Ian - don't forget to fill yours in too! Make your vote count (hopefully for the Liberal Democrats), so that we get a fresh start for West Surrey Council!”↗
23 Apr 2026Housing & Planningmeasured“The @libdems.org.uk have been campaigning on housing since before we were the Liberal Democrats. I'm pushing the Government to ensure local authorities have sufficient financial resources to end rough sleeping in #Woking and beyond.”↗
22 Apr 2026Cost of Livingmeasured“Trumpflation is ballooning the cost of living, yet it’s been cheered on by the Conservatives and Reform.

22 Apr 2026Educationcelebratory“I've visited Brookwood Primary School, speaking with the next generation about life as #Woking's MP. I’m always impressed with how insightful students questions are on school visits, and this was no exception!”↗

16 Apr 2026Educationangry“Along with others from the @libdems.org.uk, I have campaigned hard to change #Surrey County Council’s appalling approach to SEND. Local Government Reorganisation is a huge opportunity for us to change the shocking culture so that children in #Woking and beyond are put first.”↗
15 Apr 2026Transportmeasured“Residents of Old #Woking are tired of being impacted by unsafe driving. There have been far too many incidents in recent years, including a car going through a property. I urge the Government to listen to those who have supported this petition and deliver improvements.”↗
