| 27 Nov 2025 | Domestic Abuse: Children “It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Ms Jardine. I am grateful for the opportunity to speak, and I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Isle of Wight West (Mr Quigley) for securing this debate. It is incredibly emotional, and he opened it passionately and well. There are children in my constituency of Staffor…” crimesocial-careeducation | 545 |
| 27 Nov 2025 | Domestic Abuse: Children “It is a widely acknowledged fact that if a young person or child experiences abuse, it continues to have a wide range of impacts throughout their life. It is important that this Government have set the direction. The legislation is there, the ambition is there and the sector is ready. We must match ambition with invest…” crimesocial-careeducation | 77 |
| 27 Nov 2025 | Domestic Abuse: Children “The hon. Member is correct that these are really emotional subjects. It is happening to too many children across our country, and my constituent says it better than I could: “This is not just about my family; it highlights a much wider and deeply concerning issue. Too many parents are silenced and disbelieved when tryi…” crimesocial-careeducation | 134 |
| 26 Nov 2025 | Engagements “Q9. After eight years of traffic chaos and increasingly creative traffic diversions, residents of Parkside and Marston Grange in my constituency are beginning to wonder whether the A513 at Beaconside is a permanent monument to the traffic cone. In the time that Staffordshire county council and Taylor Wimpey have taken …” economy-jobscost-of-livinghealth | 100 |
| 26 Nov 2025 | Young People not in Education, Employment or Training “I thank my hon. Friend and constituency neighbour for giving way on that point. He is absolutely right to speak about the importance of skills. I point to the Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group, because our constituencies share a college. Does he agree with me that colleges such as NSCG, which are already delivering…” educationeconomy-jobssocial-care | 74 |
| 11 Nov 2025 | Remembrance Day: Armed Forces “Remembrance is more than a moment of silence. It is more than standing still, heads bowed, to honour those who served and those who gave the ultimate sacrifice, and it is more than just a day. It is about how we choose to treat those who remain with us and about the daily choices that we make, as a Government and as a …” defenceculture-community | 509 |
| 5 Nov 2025 | Curriculum and Assessment Review “Earlier this year, I held a debate on access to sport in schools, and one of my key points was how vital sport is for children’s mental health, and particularly for building their resilience. I am pleased that the review recognises that, and recommends broadening physical education’s role to reflect its wider impact on…” education | 97 |
| 5 Nov 2025 | Engagements “Q10. It is at this time of year that many of us think of those who have served their country and continue to do so—those like my grandad who served in world war two and brought up my dad and my uncles in forces accommodation, and those like my nephew currently serving, who sends me videos of accommodation riddled with …” crimeimmigrationdefence | 111 |
| 3 Nov 2025 | Care Leavers “I thank my hon. Friend for securing this really important debate. One issue that came up in my life previous to becoming an MP, and that has come up since, is access to period products for care-experienced young people, particularly as they transition out of care. My hon. Friend has spoken about the postcode lottery, a…” social-carehousinglocal-government | 119 |
| 30 Oct 2025 | Property Service Charges “I thank my hon. Friend, who is also from Staffordshire, for giving way. A constituent has got in touch with me to say, “It genuinely feels like they are stealing money from us.” Another said, “I just feel like we are a cash cow for these companies.” Does my hon. Friend agree that if managing agents and companies want t…” housinglocal-governmentcost-of-living | 76 |
| 27 Oct 2025 | Topical Questions “I recently visited Drake Hall women’s prison in my constituency of Stafford, Eccleshall and the villages, which has the brilliant initiative of a Halfords training centre to support people into employment once they leave the prison estate. It supports people all over the country, not just in my constituency. Can the Se…” labour-marketcost-of-livingsocial-care | 72 |
| 20 Oct 2025 | Topical Questions “In my constituency of Stafford, Eccleshall and the villages, I recently ran a survey, which had a whopping 99% response rate, in support of an urgent treatment centre in my constituency. Would the Minister agree to meet me to discuss urgent treatment provision in my constituency?” healthsocial-carelocal-government | 46 |
| 15 Oct 2025 | Ada Lovelace Day “I thank my hon. Friend for securing this debate on a matter close to my own heart. My first job out of university was supporting women into science, technology, engineering and maths. Today, I would like to pay tribute to Georgina Barnard from my constituency. Last month, we opened the institute of technology in Staffo…” educationtechnologyeconomy-jobs | 137 |
| 13 Oct 2025 | Criminal Courts: Independent Review “It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Mr Efford. I thank the right hon. and learned Member for Kenilworth and Southam (Sir Jeremy Wright) for securing this debate. Sir Brian Leveson’s report—I have it as being 388 pages—begins with historical quotes, all of which roughly translate to the same thing: justice d…” crimeeconomy-jobslocal-government | 498 |
| 15 Sept 2025 | Topical Questions “T7. May I associate myself with the Secretary of State’s remarks about the remarkable achievements of the Hillsborough campaigners?Last week I met Soroptimist International members in Stafford, who raised concerns about mothers in Drake Hall Prison in my constituency. Every year, 17,000 children have their mothers go t…” crimesocial-care | 87 |
| 9 Sept 2025 | Speaker's Conference (2024) — Oral Evidence (HC 570) “Congratulations, Minister. It is nice to have you before us. As the Chair alluded to, the majority of us were not particularly impressed with the response of the companies when they were sat before us. The Online Safety Act is new, and its impact is yet to be fully assessed, but if we are not able to remove the harmful…” | 95 |
| 8 Sept 2025 | Neurodivergent People: Employment “Walton Hall Academy in my constituency, which I visited when I was first elected as an MP, continues to raise the difficulty of getting work experience for its neurodivergent pupils. Does the hon. Member agree that it is as important to support businesses through the work experience process as it is to ensure that peop…” labour-marketeducationsocial-care | 69 |
| 8 Sept 2025 | Housing: North Staffordshire “The Minister and I discussed this issue just prior to the recess, particularly in relation to Eccleshall, where greenfield sites with really poor transport infrastructure, as well as poor sewage and water infrastructure, are being proposed for development. I gently remind him that we were going to meet this month or ea…” housinglocal-governmentenvironment | 74 |
| 8 Sept 2025 | Housing: North Staffordshire “It cannot be denied that we are in the worst housing crisis since world war two. I thank the Minister for his engagement; we have previously discussed this issue in relation to my constituency of Stafford, Eccleshall and the villages. We need housing, but the village of Loggerheads, right in the north of my constituenc…” housinglocal-governmentenvironment | 116 |
