Great to be in Parliament today for our annual MP lunch, discussing the importance of the homegrown beet sugar industry, our current work and future plans. Many thanks to those who joined us and to Terry Jermy MP for hosting!

I was thrilled to host British Sugar in Parliamentary yesterday. This week they committed to invest a record £43m into the Wissington factory in my constituency to reduce carbon emissions. It is a pillar of our country & region with regards to production and innovation.
