Ensuring a Clean and Tidy Town


Over the past year, residents and local businesses have been raising their concerns about litter and rat issues across the town. Walking through a clean and tidy town instils pride in all of us. It is something we all want for Wycombe. I know that the bottom of Castle Place, where it joins Castle Street, has been referred to by some as the Rat Restaurant. Wycombe’s human residents will be pleased to know that Bucks Council has taken great steps […]

Update from Westminster – Spring Budget: The Government is Cutting More Taxes and Investing in Our Businesses


The wellbeing of the UK’s public finances affects all of us, in Wycombe and across the rest of the UK. That is why the Government has focused on improving our economic circumstances, and why three of the five promises made by the Prime Minister when he entered office were related to the economy: halving inflation, reducing government debt, and growing the economy. As a low-tax Conservative, I am always concerned with making sure tax rates are as low as possible. […]

My Statement on the 21st February Gaza Ceasefire Vote and the Fallout Since


As the member of Parliament for Wycombe since 2010, I am here to represent all of Wycombe: people of all faiths and none. That is why I am proud to have many Muslim constituents, voters, members and friends. Temperatures are running extremely high in our country over Gaza, and understandably so. The plight of Palestine has concerned many people, including many members of the Muslim community. I recognise that the vast majority of British Muslims have serious and legitimate concerns […]

Improving our Public Finances and Cutting Taxes


We must get serious about our public finances; the United Kingdom has lived beyond its means for far too long. The Government’s response to our economic circumstances has shown that it is willing to make unpopular decisions in order to bring our public finances under control. The Government Actuary’s Department has stated that the UK risks defaulting on its age-related spending commitments in just twenty years. This is a deeply troubling situation and one that requires great fiscal restraint as […]

Project Gigabit – Multi-Million Pound Deal for Super-Fast Broadband in Wycombe


I’m pleased to be able to share some good news that’s set to make a big difference in Wycombe and our neighbouring areas. We’ve secured a £58.75 million deal with CityFibre to bring super-fast broadband to many homes and businesses in our community. This move is a game changer, especially for areas that have been waiting for better internet service. This project is part of a larger effort to ensure that everyone, no matter where they live, can access fast […]

“What has Steve Baker ever done for Wycombe?”


It has been an honour to work for Wycombe since I was first elected in 2010 as its MP. Whether it is running around West Wycombe, seeing a performance at the Wycombe Swan Theatre, exploring our beautiful countryside, or enjoying the culinary delights that our diverse community brings, it has been a pleasure to live in Wycombe with my wife all these years. Given I have had a large national profile over the past decade, the work I have done […]

The Government is acting to tackle Islamophobia


I know the great pain that many are feeling locally for the terrible suffering of innocent people in Gaza. Alongside this pain, I know many are fearful about the conflict spilling over into hatred at home.  All crimes on the basis of religion or other identity are abhorrent and totally unacceptable. I know the conflict has brought a new wave of fears to Muslim communities in the UK. Hate crimes against Muslims are significant, and more needs to be done.  […]
