Croydon’s trams are over 20 years old, and I’ve continued to make the case for investment to the Mayor of London. Thanks to the multi-year funding settlement from this government, TfL is now moving forward with plans to procure a brand new fleet for our community.

Last night, as Chair of the APPG on Youth Affairs, I invited young people to Parliament to share their views on social media. They called for stronger protections to keep them safe while allowing creativity and connection. Thanks to all who took part.

In the Chamber today, I raised the incredible achievement of the Astrogazers from Croydon High School for Girls, set to become the first all girls school in the world to launch a CubeSat into space. A powerful reminder of what happens when women are backed in STEM.

Mental health issues among children and young people are on the rise but in England, more than half still aren't getting the treatment they need.
That’s why this Labour Government is expanding mental health support in schools and bringing care closer to home. #politicslive

Proud of the action this government is taking to tackle knife crime. From 1 August, ninja swords will be banned.
Croydon Police are running a surrender scheme this month. If you want to dispose of a ninja sword anonymously, use the amnesty bin outside Croydon Police Station.

I've written to the CEO of Southern Railway asking them to reverse the decision to close the cycle racks at East Croydon Station. We should be encouraging cyclists with secure, accessible bike parking - not taking it away.
