In SW London, sewage was dumped into the Thames on 123 occasions for a total of 590 hours over the last two years. That is 48 mins every day during that time. Therese Coffey should be apologising to my constituents for that, not using the area for a media soundbite. https://t.co/UecRdMPMlg
I believe I’m not the only one who is speaking about sewage in Richmond Park this morning… Yet sadly @theresecoffey didn’t invite me. Rather than more empty words from the Environment Secretary, the real story of how seriously the Government is taking sewage is here.👇 https://t.co/ZdYXFFBS7z
I spoke to @itvlondon this morning about the continued failure of this Conservative Government to prevent sewage being dumped into our rivers. The @LibDems have a clear plan to clean up our waterways, and hold water companies to account, in contrast to the endless Tory rhetoric. https://t.co/DgcZVdOV9b
On Thursday, I again raised the need to ensure AI is properly regulated to protect creative industries such as art and music from copyright infringement. I will proudly continue to work to ensure the dangerous 'text and data mining' exemption to UK copyright law does not return. https://t.co/KAoqBhVVFS https://t.co/upuT2QJ3Sv
This is a real loss. The planned cuts to BBC local radio are putting at risk the outstanding quality of local journalism we enjoy in London. For Londoners sake, they must be reconsidered. https://t.co/97KsBqm44F
The Conservatives are stealth taxing millions of households. In the 2023/24 alone, 1.5m people will be dragged into paying income tax due to the freezing of the personal allowance. This is despite inflation being at 10%, energy bills at record levels and mortgages/rent soaring. https://t.co/JGHir37gFp
The Government's energy announcement today only happened because they were dragged to court over their failure to comply with legally binding targets. Addressing our climate emergency clearly is just not a priority for the Conservatives. We need less rhetoric, and more action. https://t.co/M91vhfpFCl
The latest NHS figures showed that shockingly, 7.21 million people were waiting for treatment in January. This is a dire indictment of this Conservative Government's management of our NHS. I therefore challenged the Health Secretary today on what is being done to address this. https://t.co/9nCvDLzk0n
The cost of living crisis is still hurting households. Mortgages/rent are up, the cost of a weekly shop is up, and energy bills are sky-high. The Conservatives want to take credit if inflation drops, yet they are failing to take responsibility for the fact it is still rising. https://t.co/DbtEDs9IYd
The number of GPs has dropped by 850 across the country since 2019, a shocking failure from the Conservatives. In Dominic Raab's own constituency, staff were described as 'crumbling under pressure'. due to increased workload. This Government is out of touch and out of ideas. https://t.co/PKtxzEC0Ff
