I’m proud to serve as Junior Lord of the Treasury and be part of this government. However, my main priority will always be standing up for the area I call my home and making sure our towns’ needs and concerns are heard.
Prior to this appointment, I served as Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Secretary of State for Defence, John Healey. I was also previously elected by my fellow MPs as a member of the Home Affairs Select Committee, where I questioned experts and relevant figures, including the Home Secretary and asylum accommodation providers like Serco, on a range of issues including crime, immigration and national security. You can watch my contributions on my
YouTube page.
I’ve also campaigned in Parliament on a number of specific issues, such as introducing a Long Service Medal for magistrates; an M54-M6 link, and a direct train service between Telford and London; and drastic improvements to Telford’s local healthcare service. My priority is to represent your priorities, so if you want to discuss policy issues or ask me to raise something on your behalf, please do get in touch.
I’ve previously acted as Chairs of the West Midlands All-Party Parliamentary Group – which is a powerful voice for our region, championing what it excels at and highlighting where it needs support – and the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Events, which works to support events venues such as the Telford International Centre, which help drive our economy but don’t get the recognition they deserve.
