Campaign Responses

Thank you to Hertford and Stortford residents who have written to me about policies they want to see in the Budget. I want to provide a response that sets out my broader views on what I hope to see from the Budget on 3rd March 2021.

Thank you to all those residents who have been in touch with me about support for hospitality and pubs in our area. 

A number of residents have been in touch with me today about images circulating online showing small amounts of food being delivered to children who are eligible for free school meals.

Many thanks to those who got in touch with me on the Trade and Cooperation Agreement reached with the EU.

Many thanks to those Hertford and Stortford residents who contacted me about the Fire Safety Bill. 

I have not voted to take free school meals from children. I am fully committed to free school meals and this government has expanded the eligibility for free school meals to more children than any government in the last fifty years.

I am often asked by Hertford and Stortford residents to sign Early Day Motions (EDMs). Like many Members of Parliament, I do not sign EDMs, but would like to reassure you that this does not mean I have no interest in the issue, or that I will not act on your behalf where possible.
