During the COVID-19 pandemic, we all waited for science to catch up. We waited for a vaccine, for hope.
When it finally arrived, the world changed almost overnight.
With HIV, TB and malaria, we don’t have to wait. The science is already there. The treatments already exist.

It’s outrageous that someone who sexually abuses an animal isn’t automatically put on the sex offenders register.
We know that people who abuse animals are far more likely to go on to commit domestic abuse and even to abuse children. 🧵

Animal, human and environmental health are inseparable — and the science is clear that we must take a joined-up approach.

Political parties that deny climate change exists are no friends of farmers.
They are paving the way for deeper losses and long-term damage to British farming.

Parents tell me every single week about how hard they have to fight to get the SEND provision that their child is entitled to. I asked the Government what steps they're taking to ensure that Education, Health and Care Plans are issued in a timely manner.

🎖️ Veterans who experience mental ill health deserve understanding and tailored care.
We’re calling for a Veterans’ Mental Health Oversight Officer — to ensure joined-up support, compassion and accountability across the system.
We owe our veterans more than gratitude — we owe them proper support.

I joined Mighty Convoy in driving 5 ambulances filled with medical aid to Ukraine - a journey I will never forget.
Britain has backed Ukraine since this war began - and it is vital that we continue to do so.
Thank you to all volunteers who drive equipment to Ukraine to help with the war effort!

With the cost of living crisis, it can be a real shock for pet owners when they have to take a sick or injured animal — a member of their family — to the vet and face bigger bills than expected.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the gravest public health threats confronting the world.
AMR will cause 39 million deaths by 2050.
This is a direct threat to the UK that demands urgent action, not short-sighted funding cuts.

There's really good organisations, locally & nationally, who are there for support. You just need to ask.
On World Mental Health Day, we have to recognise that there's no stigma in having mental health issues and that we need to treat mental health as seriously as we treat physical health.

It's World Mental Health Day. At a time when our NHS is under threat & struggling to meet demand despite the amazing efforts of staff, it's so easy for politicians to dismiss mental health & cut services even further as part of their "tough choices" for the economy. I reject this way of thinking.

Thanks to the Winchester Litter Pickers for inviting me along to help tidy up our streets. They've fostered a fantastic community atmosphere where people can come along to help and meet new people. I really recommend it!

Two years ago, we witnessed the horror of Hamas’s terrorist attack on Israel. 1,200 people brutally murdered, 251 people taken hostage. We have since witnessed Netanyahu's disastrous response, leading to 10s of thousands of deaths in Gaza.

We've helped parents ensure their children's educational needs are met. Supported businesses & farmers with grant applications. Taken on water companies when they've overcharged & polluted our environment. And, I've spoken up in Parliament on the big issues Winchester residents care about the most.

Schools and hospitals are being bombed.
Children are being shot by snipers.
Aid workers are being killed.
People are being deliberately starved to death.
What further war crimes need to be committee before the UK Government stops supplying arms to Israel and sanction PM Netanyahu?

A miserable day for the last 61 bus from Winchester to Eastleigh via Colden Common.
Rural buses are a lifeline for individuals who do not drive - they are vital to allow people to live independently and get to hospital appointments or work.
