At the debate on supporting our high streets I urged the Government to take action to revive our high streets, restore pride in our towns and put small businesses at the centre of Britain’s economic recovery. Reform didn’t even bother to show up to the debate.

On Tuesday evening I was honoured to hold a debate on Support for Disabled Veterans in the House of Commons. Our disabled veterans deserve our gratitude and respect. They should not have to fight for support and care.

I’ve signed this letter calling on Keir Starmer to rethink his plans for mandatory digital ID. A mandatory digital ID system risks deepening digital exclusion. It would disproportionately affect older people, disabled people, and those living in poverty.

I’ve signed this @libdems.org.uk letter calling on the Government to scrap the two child benefit cap. My colleagues and I have been pushing for this in Parliament at every opportunity. It’s time to scrap the cap and lift thousands of children out of poverty.

Recently I joined @riveractionuk.bsky.social and the Test and Itchen Association to test the River Itchen at Bishopstoke. The results were disappointing - though not unexpected - with low biodiversity and high nitrate levels.

A few constituents have contacted me about the decision to remove the CCTV Cameras in Eastleigh town centre. I’m in contact with the local police and council and hopeful that a solution can be found. Meanwhile I’m continuing to call for a new police station for Eastleigh.

I have joined with over 200 MPs urging the Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary to recognise Palestine as a state now. The UK should be taking the lead on securing a two-state solution and a lasting peace.

Today marks 30 years since the Srebrenica genocide. My thoughts are with all the survivors of the horrific events of July 1995 and all those who lost their loved ones. We must always stand against all forms of hate and prejudice and Remember Yesterday, Act Today.

A year ago today I was knocking on doors and running on ice cream - and I had no idea how much my life was about to change.

97 years today since women won the vote - great to meet female politics students in St Stephen’s Hall this morning, where suffragettes chained themselves to the statues in 1909. #WomenInPolitics

I was so pleased to meet with my constituent Jane, widow of late football legend Chris Nicholl. Chris sadly died last year from dementia caused by Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a result of heading footballs over the course of his incredible career.

Today I wrote to the Chancellor and the Minister for Work and Pensions expressing my concerns about the Government's planned changes to PIP. Slashing support for those who already face significant challenges will only contribute to more poverty and suffering.

I have tabled an amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill to remove the 12-month time bar for historic sexual offences committed against 13 to 15-year-olds before 2004. This amendment would help hundreds of victims get justice and closure.
