The Dartford Constituency

Welcome

 

Welcome to my website.

I am proud to represent the Dartford Constituency which comprises Dartford and the surrounding villages of Joydens Wood, Wilmington, Stone, Greenhithe, Swanscombe, Bean, Darenth, Sutton-at-Hone, Hawley, Longfield, Southfleet, New Barn, Hartley, Betsham and Hodsoll Street.

I am a former Dartford Grammar School pupil and live in Dartford Constituency with my wife, Wendy and our two children, who both attend a local state primary school. One of my interests outside of politics is playing Cricket in the Kent Village League.

Since becoming MP for Dartford I have taken up a number of issues in Parliament on behalf of residents including care home closures, the Dartford Crossing and sentencing for dangerous driving to name a few.  For details of all questions I have raised and debates I have taken part in go to the Working for You section of my website.

If you would like to make an appointment to see me please look at the Surgeries section of my website and contact my office to arrange a convenient time.

Thank you for visiting my website.
