What I do

Brixton

The Streatham constituency contains the southern part of Brixton. It has a longstanding reputation as a vibrant cultural and creative hub, and has also seen significant transformation and investment. Windrush Square is named after the Windrush generation – who settled in Brixton after arriving in the UK as it had the labour exchange which was closest to the accommodation provided to migrants in Clapham – and is home of the Black Cultural Archives.

London South Bank University

Interesting visit to London South Bank University to see some of the groundbreaking technologies being developed there.

Crystal Palace FC Foundation

It’s been great fun joining the Crystal Palace FC Foundation’s Stockwell project for one of their sessions for young people.

House of Commons - Cost of Public Transport

In a debate on the cost of public transport I argued that the cost of travelling to and from Streatham on Govia Thameslink is unacceptable given the dreadful service that commuters receive.

Southern Rain

Demanding the Transport Secretary gives an urgent statement on what he will do to force Southern Trains to improve their appalling service to constituents.

House of Commons - Local Government Finance

In the Commons I highlighted the challenges facing Lambeth Council in maintaining front-line services when the Government has cut the council’s budget by 56% since 2010.

Streatham Royal Mail Delivery Office

Helping sort the post at Streatham Royal Mail Delivery Office during their Christmas rush.

House of Commons - National Minimum Wage

I raised an Urgent Question in the Commons about reported breaches of national minimum wage legislation by Sports Direct.

Corpus Christi Catholic Primary School

Helping draw the raffle at Corpus Christi Catholic Primary School’s Christmas Fair.

Christmas Lights Switch-on

Brilliant to switch on the Streatham Christmas Lights with Gogglebox stars Sandy and Sandra!

Westminster Hall - Small Business Saturday

During a Westminster Hall debate I paid tribute to those who helped bring Small Business Saturday to the UK and the enormous contribution that our small businesses make to the economy.

Roupell Park Estate

On the Roupell Park Estate to raise serious concerns about the significant and long-standing delays to the refurbishment of local residents’ homes.

Bus accessibility

Travelling with Faye brought home the daily difficulties disabled people have on public transport. I’m determined to help make sure our transport serves the needs of everyone.
