Yesterday, I held a debate in Parliament on Government support to repair the road at Galley Hill.

Since the collapse of the road in April last year, it has been a nightmare for residents and surrounding businesses.

I am pleased to have secured a debate in Parliament on Government funding to repair the road at Galley Hill.

It was a pleasure to visit Fairfield Leisure Centre, to learn about a new Home Education Multi Sports Programme which has begun at the centre.

As Dartford MP, I regularly visit all the schools in the area and this month it was great to go along to Knockhall Primary School in Greenhithe.
 
Knockhall is an excellent community school which takes pride in providing children in Greenhithe with a good education.
 

Many people are still experiencing problems with their Dart Charge accounts since new operators took over in July 2023 and I have called on National Highways to resolve this issue on numerous occasions.

At the moment, the system is simply not fit for purpose.

It was a pleasure to attend the St George's Day event in Dartford again this year, where I was interviewed by GB News.  

Hundreds of school children from 24 schools in Dartford were present, along with lots of local people, to join in the parade and celebrations for our national day.  

On Friday 19th April, Labour again blocked my Bill to overturn the ULEZ expansion.

Sadly, this ends any chance of my Bill becoming law.

During Prime Ministers Question's in the House of Commons, I asked the Prime Minister about the benefits of a reduction in income tax. 

In 2010, somebody earning £15,000 a year paid £1700 in income tax. Today, someone earning £15,000 a year pays less than £500 a year in income tax.  

I was delighted to attend a reception to mark the official launch of Cancer52's manifesto 'The Other Half: A Manifesto to transform outcomes for people with rare and less common cancers'.

I attended the wonderful Dartford Festival of Colours event to celebrate Holi.

Holi is a festival celebrating the arrival of Spring and it is also known as the 'festival of colours', where Gulaal (coloured powder) is thrown.
