On Monday 10 January 2021 I voted on the Nuclear Energy (Financing) Bill. This Bill aims to change how new nuclear power plants are funded to ensure that they reach completion. 

Education: Return in January was debated on Wednesday 5 January 2022, I asked:

“At a meeting with residents to discuss plans for a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) on Green Belt land off Chapel Lane, my constituents raised their concerns on the proposed BESS on Green Belt land and are strongly opposed to this inappropriate development.”

“Anesco, the company proposing to develop the BESS, have not been transparent in their communication with residents. Despite contacting Anesco, many constituents complained about a lack of response from the company.”

I am setting out my reasons for voting for the Covid Regulations laid by the Government on 14 December 2021. I appreciate hearing from my constituents and the strong views both for and against the measures.

Omicron is a clear threat, and it has always been my view that the Government must act swiftly to limit its spread. Throughout the pandemic I have always put public health before first and I will continue to do so. I supported the measures on their merits.

The Sikh Supreme Council wrote to me to say that the demands of the protesting farmers were been successful. I co-signed with 35 other MPs in December 2020 to the then Foreign Secretary an open letter about the treatment of the farmers who were taking part in  peaceful protest to protect their land.    In February 2021, I followed up with another letter highlighting that my constituents and I were horrified by reports of police brutality against the farmers protesting these laws, and that my constituents are concerned that this legislation would place all purchasing power in the hands of large corporations.
