Have a read of my summer newsletter for more information about what has been going on recently both in Parliament and in Hammersmith & Chiswick 👇 andyslaughter.co.uk/blog/2026/07/1…

Mask-making with the very talented year 5s at Good Shepherd Primary for School Arts week. Thanks to @LyricHammer and @LBHF for organising arts events in 22 schools.

Last week, I joined @CR_UK Parliament Day for the launch of the Unlock Cancer Breakthroughs campaign. It was a real pleasure to speak with @hammersmithandy MP about why cancer research matters and the action needed to deliver life-saving breakthroughs at greater scale.

if, like me, you have no water in Chiswick or Shepherds Bush, it's probably this thameswater.co.uk/network-latest…

In Barnes to check out the driverless pods that could help those less mobile to get across Hammersmith Bridge

Surprise party at Harmony Nusery for the amazing Jana Hassan, manager for 25 years who retires this week. Families past and present came to celebrate a White City legend.

@djgotstandards @LBHF Sorry to hear about this. If you haven't already, please email me on andy.slaughter.mp@parliament.uk

@LBHF @hammersmithandy lift broke disabled people cannot get in or out to their home, young families cannot get in or in or out. How does my disabled daughter get to school tomorrow. Lift engineer now turned the phone off. This is a joke.

Hammersmith-based charity @IndependentAge came to Parliament to let all MPs know about its work helping older people manage their money

Good way to start the day. At the National Parliamentary Prayer Breakfast with Pete Wynter, vicar of St Paul's, Hammersmith

I asked this week if the Minister would confirm whether there will be a comprehensive trade and investment ban in the event of any move towards expansion in the E1 zone in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. #contribution-49A29A76-14A1-46A6-90B8-5D913AB0EBF0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/2026-0…

Licensing officers relent @LBofHounslow over ban on tables and chairs outside riverside pubs at Strand on the Green #Chiswick as long as they apply for a licence: chiswickcalendar.co.uk/council-relent…

Disgusting. After years of broken promises, Thames Water continues to pollute our waterways with raw sewage. London deserves clean, safe rivers, not more sewage and excuses. Water companies and regulators need to get their act together. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@Its_Leton75 I'm very sorry to hear about this. Please email me if you haven't already on andy.slaughter.mp@parliament.uk

@hammersmithandy I'm getting evicted from my flat next week in London run by a Veterans charity because of a 3 month long bout of depression and getting into rent arrears thru no fault of my own. The support team were supposed to be sorting it all out for me but didn't.

The UK is supporting the next generation of Palestinian leaders and evacuating critically ill children needing specialist care.   The situation in Gaza remains dire. The 20 point peace plan must be revived to ensure peace and stability for Israelis and Palestinians alike.

We saw today the dignity and decency that Keir has brought to being our Prime Minister. He has achieved so much, not least bringing Labour back into government and restoring the UK’s reputation on the world stage. We owe him our profound thanks for his service to our country.

Keir Starmer’s place in history is assured. We owe Keir a debt of gratitude for taking Labour from its worst electoral defeat in 2019, bringing Labour back into government with a huge majority in 2024 and then guiding Britain through difficult times nationally and globally.

Our Chair @SarahChampionMP has written to the Foreign Secretary to call on government to finally set out its assessment of the International Court of Justice's Advisory Opinion on Israel's actions in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. Read more: committees.parliament.uk/committee/98/i…

Visited the scene of last night's fatal fire in White City. Immedediate action by emergency services contained the fire but sadly three lives were lost in the building where it started. My sympathies to the families of the victims. Fire and police services are now investigating.

Today until 6pm, visit leading @ArtistsAtHome across Hammersmith, Shepherds Bush and Chiswick. Full details at artistsathome.co.uk

Good to welcome @FamMedCouncil to the Commons. Mediation is a quicker, kinder and cheaper way to resolve family law problems
