Today, the Lib Dems launched part one of our ‘Plan for the Future’. At our General Election campaign launch, Jo Swinson has declared that a Lib Dem Government will stop Brexit and use the £50 billion ‘Remain Bonus’ to invest in public services and tackle inequality. This £50 billion injection to the areas that need it […]

The decision to hold a snap General Election on Thursday 12th December brings to an end one of the most disastrous governments in generations.  This is our chance to demand better for Britain, and Woking in particular.  In that election, I will be standing to become the Lib Dem MP for Woking Constituency.  As a local Councillor, […]

The Lib Dems and I think a General Election is the only way to overcome this Brexit chaos. That is why we think there should be one on the 9th December, and our team in Westminster have been working on a plan to ensure we can do that. There are currently two barriers to stopping […]

I was delighted to see that Heidi Allen, the former Conservative MP for South Cambridgeshire, joined the Lib Dems last night. She has been a tireless campaigner for a People’s Vote and has time and time again put the country’s interests ahead of her own. I am absolutely thrilled for Heidi to join our fantastic […]

I am delighted to have been selected by the Lib Dems as their candidate to be Woking’s next MP. As a local Councillor, former Mayor and life-long resident I believe I have the experience to serve as Woking Constituency’s Member of Parliament. I have been representing Hoe Valley on Woking Borough Council and Woking South […]

Like many people, I watched the Supreme Court’s judgement earlier today for them to declare that Boris Johnson broke the law and lied to the Queen to stop MPs scrutinising his Government. The Supreme Court has made their ruling – the prorogation of Parliament was illegal.  MPs should be allowed to scrutinise the Government without having […]

During Lib Dem Party Conference at the weekend, members voted to commit the party to revoking Article 50 in the event of a Lib Dem majority Government. The Lib Dems are crystal clear: if we win the next election, we will stop Brexit by revoking Article 50 and remaining in the European Union. People deserve […]

I am delighted to say that Surrey now has a Lib Dem MP – with Sam Gyimah, former Conservative MP for East Surrey, joining the party on the first day of our conference. Sam Gyimah feels the two old parties have moved to the edges of the political spectrum – each with their own brand […]

Yesterday, I marched at the head of a group of local people who come together to protest in Woking town centre against the Prime Minister’s recent attack on our Parliamentary democracy. Following Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s decision last week to suspend Parliament to force through a no deal Brexit, there have been widespread protests throughout […]

This week, the Queen agreed to Boris Johnson’s demand to suspend Parliament and thereby deny democratic debate at one of the most critical times in our country’s history. The Lib Dems and I think shutting Parliament to force through a No Deal Brexit is an absolutely unacceptable course of action.  This action shows that Boris Johnson […]
