What I do

Clapham

The Streatham constituency contains the eastern side of Clapham across to the Common itself, including Clapham Park Estate, Lambeth Academy, and Thornton.

Clapham is a vibrant community and has undergone significant regeneration and investment in housing and on the high street in recent years. The Common remains a popular destination for tourists and locals.

Hyderi Islamic Centre

I attended the moving vigil for the people of Manchester at Hyderi Islamic Centre this evening. The terrorists seek to divide us but what they have done is brought us together.

Hustings

Really great turnout for the Streatham election hustings, excellently organised by Streatham Action and Love Streatham. Thanks to everyone who came.

Vote Leave Watch pamphlet

In Clapham meeting with local residents to talk about my work fighting a hard Brexit and Tory cuts to our schools.

Train

Lambeth Youth Council

Talking about political engagement, votes at 16, electoral reform and Brexit with members of the Streatham Youth Council.

Met Police changes

I’ve written to the Police Commissioner to urge a rethink on police changes. With the troubling rise in youth violence and other crimes we need a dedicated Police Commander based in here.

Home Affairs Select Committee - Social media platforms

Social media platforms should be a safe space from threats and abuse, but too often that is not he case. I challenged social media companies on what they are doing to stop people profiting from hate and abuse.

Refugee crisis

Speaking with local religious leaders about the ongoing global refugee crisis and what we can do locally to help support those in need.

Looking at the figures behind the soundbites of this year’s Budget to see how the people of Streatham and working people across the UK will really be hit.
