We are under no illusion as to the scale of the challenge we have inherited from the Conservatives after more than a decade of low growth and a £22 billion black hole in the public finances. That’s why we are taking the tough decisions now to fix the foundations of our economy.




Manifesto launch today - really proud of the Veteran’s pull out. Commonwealth visa fees waived for entire families, war pensions and AFCS awards not counted as income, Veterans Bill to enshrine veterans rights and maintaining operating budgets and Ministerial power for the OVA.

High migration numbers are unsustainable and unfair on the British people. Today’s figures confirm that since @RishiSunak became Prime Minister net migration has fallen by 10%. The plan is working. Let’s stick with it ✅


After 10 years, I am proud to see the second staircase at Surbiton Station officially opened! It is fantastic to see constituents and commuters using the staircase and the benefits it is already having on improving congestion. Thank you to everyone that has made this possible!





The situation in Rafah is very worrying. An Israeli offensive must not go ahead. There must be an end to the loss of innocent lives. There should immediately be a ceasefire, the release of hostages and aid should be allowed into Gaza.


Given Tory majority in House of Lords bit rich for Rishi Sunak to blame Labour for delay to passing #Rwanda Bill. It’s because so many on his own side and crossbenchers reject the legislation


I will crack down on tax avoidance and inject that money back into our public services.

Our government is complicit in the slaughter of innocent people in Gaza. Today, we filled Parliament Square to demand a permanent ceasefire and an end to arms sales to Israel. We are a movement for peace — and we aren’t going anywhere.
