The Budget at the end of October will set the course for the rest of this parliament. Green MPs do not accept the need for public spending cuts. On the 4th July, the public didn’t vote for things to get worse. We want a bold budget for investment in our broken public services and the […]

Boris Johnson is not welcome in this town. This is the man who allowed the Cheltenham Festival to go ahead despite the risk of covid. Cheltenham suffered as a result of that failure. The pandemic spread here much faster than in other areas with our hospital having the highest number of coronavirus hospital admissions in […]

It was lovely to chat to so many people last month at my first surgery at the library. Also, thanks to all the Prestbury residents who have contacted me over the last month, or stopped me on the footpath. It’s great that so many people care about the community and can be bothered to try […]
