The Government is pressing for humanitarian pauses in Gaza
I know large numbers of people in Wycombe would like a ceasefire in Gaza. A humanitarian crisis is unfolding, and the Government has acted by more than doubling aid to the Palestinian people, and by calling for humanitarian pauses. At PMQs on 25 October, asked about a ceasefire, the PM said he is pressing for pauses, “…from the start we have also wanted to ensure that humanitarian aid can go in and hostages and foreign nationals can come out. We […]

My statement on the opening of the High Wycombe driving test centre
I am delighted that the High Wycombe Driving Test Centre has now reopened and commenced testing. I have spent many hours speaking to people in the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency, Ministers in the Department of Transport, and the Council, even holding a debate in Parliament on the issue. It has been hard work but has been worth it. It is not right learners would have been forced to travel with round trip distances of thirty miles in order to test […]

My statement on the continued closure of the High Wycombe driving test centre

As many of my constituents know, we have, of course, been here before. Twice now, I have worked with key stakeholders in our area to save the driving test centre in […]
