It is high time Europe (including the UK) stood up to Orbán. He has consistently promoted Putin's agenda and destabilised democracy and the rule of law not only in Hungary but also in Slovakia, Bosnia and Serbia.

British businesses are drowning in red tape. I asked the trade minister today: what actual measures are coming out of this upcoming EU-UK summit to reduce the barriers holding back our growth?

As a resident of Newhaven I can say the answer to this question is yes! From our refurbished historic Fort to new bars and restaurants to our direct ferry link to France. Nestled between the South Downs and the sea, our town is a great place to visit. theargus.co.uk/news/25127766.…

Steelmaking is vital to Britain's future – for our economy, our energy security, and our Net Zero goals. To bring down energy prices for households and businesses, the Government must back renewables and our steel industry. My question to the Minister today in the Commons:

Thank you, Alison Bennett, for a great intervention today championing the English wine industry. I'm proud to represent top-class Sussex producers like Rathfinny Estate, Ridgeview Wine and Breaky Bottom – now let’s see real backing from the government to help them thrive.

Good luck to Liberal Democrats standing in today's elections. Hoping to see lots more liberal community champions elected across the country. A shame for us in East Sussex that we have been denied the right to express our views on years of Conservative failure at the County Council.

Good job they aren't in charge round here! These Reform zealots would meet a lot of resistance to preventing us flying our county flag on Sussex Day. We wunt be druv as they say round these parts.

What a brilliant flypast. 80 years on from VE Day we are reminded that war in Europe is still very much a reality. It is wonderful to see so many events around our local communities remembering the heroism of those that fought for our freedom all those years ago. #VEDay80

This could be a win for common sense. Recognising EU and UK qualifications helps our NHS, schools and engineering sector. A long-standing Lib Dem policy that’s needed now more than ever.

Britain told a generation to go out and compete with the world – then locked the nearest doors. Labour should unlock them for young people. An EU Youth Mobility Scheme isn’t a luxury. It’s the bare minimum.

British farmers deserve a fair trade, not a raw deal. We must not sell out our high farming standards for a Trump trade deal . Parliament must have a say.

I spoke to BBC South East yesterday about the chaos caused by the unprecedented rise in roadworks across East Sussex – much of it down to utility companies. Residents deserve better – for many, it’s become a complete nightmare.

Great to visit the team Ridgeview Wine. Not only are they in a beautiful corner of my constituency but are also making a big contribution to our flourishing English wine industry in Sussex.
