The wet wipes cleared from 'Wet Wipe Island' in the Thames by Hammersmith show the scale of the issue of wet wipes polluting our rivers. We're banning plastic in wet wipes which is a huge win for our rivers, ocean and wildlife!

Great to see the Chancellor on her visit to Sipsmith Distillery in Chiswick today to celebrate the success of the UK–India trade deal, which is due to generate 7,000 jobs across the UK, including 2,591 in London. Read more about the visit here: www.chiswickw4.com/default.asp?....

Another wonderful day out at Chiswick Dog Show at the weekend, delighted to have been asked back to judge for the second year in a row. It was also great to catch up with Blue Cross, who I visited in Hammersmith in August, at their stall.

Some hope among the tragedy and bloodshed in Palestine as Britain joins Canada, Australia and France in recognising the State of Palestine.

Proud to see Ambassador Husam Zomlot raise the Palestinian flag over his Embassy here in Hammersmith yesterday.

It was great to be at the official opening of the new Chiswick Health Centre last week. A very impressive new NHS building incorporating 3 GP practices, a range of NHS services and community space for residents to enjoy.

The troubling findings of Baroness Harman’s independent review of bullying, harassment & sexual harassment are primarily for the Bar itself & for the judiciary to address, but I asked if the Government support the recommendations & what can they do to ensure they are implemented.

A great day out at Tidefest on Sunday! It was brilliant to see so many people enjoying the Thames and being able to do so safely thanks to the huge efforts that have gone into cleaning it up and keeping it free of pollution and rubbish.

Tidefest is taking place on the 14th of September this year at Strand on the Green. It is a brilliant day out with lots of fun activities to participate in!

Great to visit Jack Tizard School with the Secretary of State for Energy Security & Net Zero to see the solar panels that have already saved the school £2000. Hammersmith & Fulham Community Energy now aims to bring the solar panels into community ownership:

I asked the Minister today if he thinks that the postponed French-Saudi conference on a two-state solution, which may take place as early as next month, will provide the significant opportunity that he seeks to recognise Palestine as a state alongside UK allies.

I spoke this afternoon in support for the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill. The pain and indignity of a slow and painful death is something none of us would wish on anyone.

Great to meet students from Latymer Upper School this week in Parliament, always a pleasure to speak to young people with an interest in politics and answer their questions.

The Football Governance Bill strengthens the previous Government's Bill, particularly when it comes to financial sustainability. Not only are football clubs the beating heart of our communities but they give a lot back and no club is better at this than QPR.

I am pleased the Lord Chancellor has announced the inquiry into the Nottingham attacks. Sadly there are hundreds such cases every year, I asked yesterday whether the inquiry will consider other cases so wider lessons can be learned to prevent these tragic and avoidable crimes.
