In my latest column in the #Woking News and Mail, I’ve put the NHS front and centre. I’ve recently called for the Government to tackle the £80 million repairs backlog at Ashford and St Peter’s, and I’m campaigning to lower transport costs for NHS staff.

This week, I attended Age UK’s event in Parliament about corridor care. A shocking 9,793 patients waited 12 hours or more in corridors at A&Es in #Surrey in 2025. The @libdems.org.uk have a plan to tackle this by making 6,000 extra hospital beds available to end corridor care.

The Prime Minister has tried appeasing him for 12 months and has failed. It's time we finally stood up to him and united with our European allies to make him back down.

On Wednesday, I said his position was untenable. This is a vital and overdue step to restore public trust. His repeated denials over the use of AI in the risk assessment that led to the ban were proven to be wrong, undermining confidence in policing.

We’re handing more money to big US pharma firms while our patients languish in corridors or wait 12+ hours in A&E.
That's why we've set out our plan to end the A&E crisis.

People were rightly furious with the Conservative Party for plunging the NHS into this crisis. Now they are fed up with Labour for letting things get worse on their watch.

Delighted to be out campaigning with Attia Aslam and Zaf Rasab - the @libdems.org.uk’ candidates for #Woking North in May’s elections. Know they will make a great team to represent Horsell, Maybury, Sheerwater and Woodham on our new West #Surrey Council.

Proud to be alongside @eddavey.libdems.org.uk during #PMQs as he stood up for international law and against Donald Trump’s actions in Venezuela and threats in Greenland. I joined the @libdems.org.uk when we opposed the Iraq War - we shouldn’t support illegal war launched by the USA.
