Business of the House

Rebecca Smith Excerpts

Thursday 19th March 2026 Commons Chamber

[Rebecca Smith (South West Devon) (Con)]

My constituent John Mildmay-White, whose ancestor was a Member of this House over 100 years ago, has completed a 600 km run from Mothecombe in Devon to Westminster Bridge in aid of Wild About The Erme River, raising at least £25,000 for that cause. Will the Leader of the House join me in congratulating him and all the campaigners who supported him?

[Sir Alan Campbell]

I will absolutely join the hon. Lady in praising Mr John Mildmay-White on his achievement and considerable initiative. It just goes to show what remarkable people we have in our constituencies.
