| 20 Nov 2025 | Passenger Rail: Performance Improvements “After leading a town-wide campaign to reinstate the direct Eastbourne to London Bridge service, I am delighted to say that it will return on 15 December. However, many passengers and staff on those trains, including Louise and Rhiannon, on-board supervisors whom I have met, are concerned about the amount of antisocial …” transport | 84 |
| 19 Nov 2025 | Engagements “Q6. Eastbourne resident Pam was given a cheque for £125,000 by her terminally ill partner, which she went on to cash in. However, an error by the bank, Barclays, meant that only £125 was deposited. Barclays admitted the error, and then said it would compensate her with £250 for the inconvenience caused. Will the Prime …” economy-jobsfiscal-policyimmigration | 99 |
| 17 Nov 2025 | Asylum Policy “The Home Secretary has spoken a great deal about contribution, but one of the most powerful forms of contribution to our country is getting a job and paying taxes, which the Home Secretary will not allow people seeking asylum to do, despite the fact that it can be done in Denmark. She has said that pull factors cause a…” immigrationcost-of-livingcrime | 118 |
| 17 Nov 2025 | Violence against Women and Girls “The Government are right to abolish the role of police and crime commissioner—the Liberal Democrats have been campaigning for that for some time—but many victims’ organisations rely on the PCC core grant to fund initiatives that address violence against women. Will the Minister confirm that that cash will not be lost b…” crimesocial-care | 67 |
| 13 Nov 2025 | Topical Questions “T3. Catastrophic failures at Southern Water’s water treatment works in Eastbourne have led to extensive sewage discharges, a stench stinking out our town, and, a matter of days ago, the accidental discharge of millions of plastic bio-beads into our sea. Will the Minister urgently meet me to discuss how we can force Sou…” agricultureenvironmentutilities | 68 |
| 30 Oct 2025 | Topical Questions “Many small businesses rely on Facebook advertising to reach customers, but too many find that if they get hacked, it takes too long for Meta to let them back into their account. That has been the case for Andy Campbell, who runs ATR Carpet Cleaning. Will the Minister advise on how we can get the likes of Meta to reconn…” economy-jobslabour-marketenergy | 73 |
| 28 Oct 2025 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1420) “It is about domestic abuse in the family justice system, but I will move slightly away from the topic we have just explored. For some time, in the family court a finding of domestic abuse could be made. For some time, I have been campaigning for something equivalent, or with an equivalent impact, to exist in the crimin…” | 113 |

| 28 Oct 2025 | Justice Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1420) “I want to ask a little more about the family group decision-making meetings, and we have discussed what some of the merits are or could be of those.

| 27 Oct 2025 | Benefit Sanctions: Neurodiverse Claimants “My constituent Ross has neurodiversities and is in employment, working at a garden centre, but his income is supplemented by universal credit. After inadvertently missing a telephone appointment with a job coach, he was sanctioned, losing out on two months-worth of rent, and he risked being made homeless and losing his…” labour-marketsocial-carecost-of-living | 87 |

| 22 Oct 2025 | Topical Questions “Eastbourne is benefiting from some coastal defence scheme funding, the flood defence grant-in-aid, but it leaves heritage assets behind. Only residents and businesses currently qualify, which is leaving Eastbourne’s historic bandstand at risk of severe flooding. Will the Minister meet me and colleagues across the Depar…” technologyeconomy-jobshealth | 69 |
| 22 Oct 2025 | Delivery of Government Priorities “The Cabinet Office co-chairs the flood resilience taskforce in order to deliver on its priority to bolster flood defences, but residents in Eastbourne at this very point in time on Wartling Road, Seaside and Whitley Road—and, earlier this week, on Macmillan Drive—have to wade through canals created by flooding brought …” economy-jobshealthdefence | 94 |
| 20 Oct 2025 | Sentencing Bill “It has been great to work with Ministers at the Ministry of Justice and to help drive that identifier forward. Will the Minister join me in celebrating the incredible bravery of ITV’s “Loose Women”, many of whom, through their “Facing It Together” campaign, have spoken out about their experiences of domestic abuse, and…” crime | 94 |
| 20 Oct 2025 | Sentencing Bill “I did not, but maybe the right hon. Gentleman can agree on the point that I want to make. He spoke about the challenges that Governments have had when modelling prisoner numbers and the prison population. Does he therefore agree with David Gauke, who recommended in his report that there should be an independent body th…” crime | 74 |
