Dispatch
Apr 2026

A marginal seat — won by just 1,765 votes (3.7%) in 2024. Covers Bognor Regis, Littlehampton and Rustington. Population 105,371, notably older (median age 48 vs 41 nationally). Median income £25K (below average).

Griffiths has been among the more active Conservative voices on local issues, with recent coverage dominated by her direct confrontation of Southern Water over water quality -- she organised and hosted a packed public meeting in April 2026, publicly committing to pressure Southern Water, the government, and the Environment Agency. She has also raised the closure of Zachary Merton Community Hospital in the Commons, written formally to the Secretary of State over the matter, and challenged planning reforms that she argues override local judgement on flood risk and infrastructure. In January she questioned the Prime Minister directly at PMQs over the Baltic Klipper environmental incident, securing commitments on cost responsibility.

Her parliamentary record is solidly party-line -- 100% alignment with Conservative majority positions across 361 of 488 votes, placing her participation slightly below the Commons average. Her voting profile shows strong pro-business and anti-tax tendencies, with low alignment on workers' rights and progressive taxation. A notable exception is Lords scrutiny, where she scores 100% -- consistent with her April 2026 votes backing the Lords against the government on both the Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill and the Pension Schemes Bill, opposing Labour's attempts to override Lords amendments on ministerial investment powers and pension scheme consolidation. She is a 94% pro-parliamentary-scrutiny voter, and deviates from her party by being slightly more open to Lords reform.
