Today, I questioned the Defence Secretary about support for children of Armed Forces personnel when they have to change schools because of their parents' jobs. Amy my work experience student helped draft the question. #ArmedForces #WorkExperience

Yesterday's Monday Mail has a special focus upon maternity and babies: midsussexlibdems.org.uk/news/article/a…

💬 "These are not luxuries, they are the bare essentials that allow Sarah to live in dignity with some measure of independence" Thank you Alison Bennett for sharing Sarah's story and highlighting how vital PIP for people living with spinal cord injury. parliamentlive.tv/event/index/2b…

I have written to the Education Secretary alongside fellow West Sussex Lib Dem MPs Jess Brown-Fuller MP and Alison Bennett calling for reassurance on the future of SEND provision. Our SEND families deserve better than uncertainty. They need clear answers and a system that works.

Yesterday I spoke against and voted against the Government's Universal Credit and PIP Bill. I shared the story of Sarah from Hassocks who relies on PIP, and I also spoke about unpaid carers and the impact of this Bill on them. The government needs to think again.

Nigel Farage and his Reform MPs just voted to let foreign governments buy up our British newspapers. I guess it’s hardly a surprise since these fake patriots outsource all their policies to Trump’s White House and Putin’s Kremlin.

🎙️ Had a great time recording a “one year in” interview with Colin Holden from Mid Sussex Radio today. Hard to believe tomorrow marks the anniversary of the 2024 General Election! Thanks to everyone who’s been part of this journey so far.

A celebration for Mid Sussex's wonderful unpaid carers🫶 In my latest Middy article, I discuss Haywards Heath Town Council's brilliant unpaid carers day to honour the valuable, but all too often overlooked, contribution that these individuals make: sussexexpress.co.uk/news/opinion/p…

A win: back in October, I was one of the 11 sponsors of an animal welfare bill introduced by Liberal Democrats Danny Chambers MP 🔸🩺. It will prevent the importation of puppies, kittens and ferrets. The Government accepted Danny’s Bill, and it completed its passage through UK House of Commons yesterday

Lib Dem MP Danny Chambers MP 🔸🩺's Private Members' Bill has passed in the House of Commons! 🐶 This bill will ban puppy smuggling and mutilation. This is a huge step forward in protecting our pets and people alike.

Back in March, I was delighted to visit Bentswood to break ground on a new community centre at Barn Cottage Rec. The Scouts and Bentswood Hub are now looking to raise the final £30,000. Do you know anybody who may be able to help?: sussexexpress.co.uk/news/people/sc…

Today I met President Macron and discussed the once-in-a-generation threat that Putin poses to Europe’s collective security. We must work together to seize frozen Russian assets, and repurpose them for Ukraine's defence.

In this week's Monday Mail, I talk about welfare: a Lib Dem win on animal welfare and the government's reforms to Universal Credit and PIP midsussexlibdems.org.uk/news/article/a…

🛒 This morning I held a pop-up supermarket surgery at Tesco's in Burgess Hill. It was wonderful to chat to local residents about issues that are important to them. Thank you to everyone who came along. I look forward to holding more of these events in the future.

Last week, I visited The Acorns Nursery and Forest School in Lindfield, where I met founder and headteacher, Mrs Irwin, and her wonderful team. Following a discussion about Ofsted with the staff, I asked the Secretary of State for Education if she had any advice for The Acorns.

Another summer, another hosepipe ban. As I said in today’s Telegraph: "South East Water has prioritised profits over people and the planet." I've been pushing them to fix the Haywards Heath leak — enough is enough. 📖 tgr.ph/3XQw8D5 #FixTheLeaks

Congratulations to Lloyd Glassman and #BurgessHill's Julian Cash A brilliant result 🎾

📰 In my latest Middy article, I reflect the first year as MP for Mid Sussex, the work that has already been done, and my hopes for the future. Thank you again to all those who have been on this journey with me over the last year. Read more here: sussexexpress.co.uk/news/opinion/p…

🌎 It was great to meet three of my Mid Sussex constituents at The Climate Coalition’s ‘Act Now, Change Forever’ mass lobby last week. We discussed shared concerns and what needs to be done nationally and locally to fight the climate crisis. Thank you for coming to meet me.

SEND provision in West Sussex and across the region is on its knees. Children need it to be so much better. I will be making the case later this morning in Parliament.
