Mass Climate Lobby in Westminster
It was an honour to meet with so many constituents at the Act Now, Change Forever Mass Lobby on climate change last week. They discussed their climate concerns with me, ranging from the local to the international, and kindly agreed to send across some of the actions they would like me to take in parliament. […]
Question to the Minister on the interception of the Madleen
I asked the Minister what discussions he was having about the appalling interception of the Madleen and the prevention, yet again, of vital aid reaching the Palestinian people.
My Question to the Minister on Gaza
Today I submitted an Urgent Question on the situation in Gaza to Parliament which was selected but then upgraded to a ministerial statement. The UN has repeatedly warned that 2 million Palestinians are at risk of starvation. Now aid centres have been temporarily closed after desperate and hungry Palestinian civilians trying to access morsels of […]

The same institutional failings that led to my constituents, Jan and Gary Furlong, losing their wonderful son James in the Forbury Gardens attack.
