After 16 years on Surrey County Council Customer Services and 14 years on Woking Council, I’ve decided to step down as a Councillor. It’s been an honour to serve my community - I now want to focus on being #Woking’s Member of Parliament. Local residents will get to vote in by-elections shortly!

Despite it being Parliament's Whitsun recess this week, there has been plenty to keep me busy across #Woking constituency. Here are some of my highlights...

I recently spoke in Johanna Baxter MP’s Westminster Hall debate on getting the children forcibly deported from Ukraine by Russia returned home. The scale of what has happened to Ukrainian children is appalling. Watch my speech in full: youtu.be/IYPTNmPzLdg

In my latest Woking News & Mail column, I’ve reported back on my call to remove Ray Morgan’s OBE, the latest on the assisted dying bill and forcing #Surrey County Council to U-turn on replying to MPs about SEND casework. wokingnewsandmail.co.uk/opinion/the-mo…

I’ve tabled an amendment to stop children like Sara Shariff from #Woking being let down by children’s services. Read more about Sara’s Law in the Woking News & Mail ⬇️ wokingnewsandmail.co.uk/news/house-of-…

Proud to be by Ed Davey at #PMQs today where he pushed the Prime Minister to stand up to Donald Trump and demand the United Nations sets up for humanitarian corridors in Gaza to ensure aid gets where it’s needed.

The PM told me today that he would do everything he can to get desperately needed aid into Gaza, but words are not enough and I will hold him to account until we see action.

Proud that my amendment - Sara’s Law - will be debated in the House of Lords as part of the Children and Wellbeing Schools Bill. If passed, it will end the postcode lottery in children’s services, so no child like Sara Sharif from #Woking is left to fall through the cracks again.

🚨BREAKING: Government backs Lib Dem call to expand Free School Meals! The Government has finally listened to calls to expand free school meals to all children on universal credit, a longstanding Liberal Democrat policy.

Yesterday, I wrote to Pakistan High Commission London calling for them to allow people to apply to visit Pakistan at the Shah Jahan Mosque. I’m delighted to report they have agreed to hold an event to let people apply for an Overseas Pakistani Card in #Woking soon!

I’m behind a bar to pull a pint for #WorldCiderDay! #Woking based Asahi UK and Cornish Orchards are important local employers. The cider industry is a cornerstone of the UK’s rural economy, supporting farming, production and hospitality - cheers! 🍻🍏🍎
