It was lovely to be able to show Mr Speaker the winning design from my annual Christmas card competition in Parliament. He was very impressed by the colourful drawing by a pupil from a local primary school.🎄

In last night’s debate on digital ID I urged the Government to scrap this ill-judged plan and turn their attention to the reforms that will genuinely improve lives. Mandatory digital ID will not fix our public services, get our economy going again or address the real challenges facing the country.

We are so lucky to have amazing pubs in Eastleigh including the Fox and Hounds Fair Oak. Ahead of Small Business Saturday I was delighted to pop in for a drink and meet with Landlady Julie and her wonderful team.

At PMQs today I raised the impact that the Budget will have on hospitality businesses in Eastleigh and asked the Prime Minister if he would look again at an emergency cut on VAT for the sector.

I spent the day talking to local businesses in my constituency about their reaction to the budget. They feel let down by the Government.

At the debate on supporting our high streets I urged the Government to take action to revive our high streets, restore pride in our towns and put small businesses at the centre of Britain’s economic recovery. Reform didn’t even bother to show up to the debate.

I’ve signed this letter calling on Keir Starmer to rethink his plans for mandatory digital ID. A mandatory digital ID system risks deepening digital exclusion. It would disproportionately affect older people, disabled people, and those living in poverty.

I’ve signed this @libdems.org.uk letter calling on the Government to scrap the two child benefit cap. My colleagues and I have been pushing for this in Parliament at every opportunity. It’s time to scrap the cap and lift thousands of children out of poverty.

Recently I joined @riveractionuk.bsky.social and the Test and Itchen Association to test the River Itchen at Bishopstoke. The results were disappointing - though not unexpected - with low biodiversity and high nitrate levels.

A few constituents have contacted me about the decision to remove the CCTV Cameras in Eastleigh town centre. I’m in contact with the local police and council and hopeful that a solution can be found. Meanwhile I’m continuing to call for a new police station for Eastleigh.

I have joined with over 200 MPs urging the Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary to recognise Palestine as a state now. The UK should be taking the lead on securing a two-state solution and a lasting peace.
