Most recent appearances
- Business of the House (9 May 2013)
“May we have a debate on the wonderful work that hospices, such as St Peter’s in my constituency, do across our country?”
- Business of the House (25 Apr 2013)
“Will my right hon. Friend find time for a debate on getting young people with special needs into work? A project in my constituency and across the London borough of Redbridge will hopefully, with the help of the parent group, Interface, the borough council and employers, have the first people taking up jobs shortly.”

“Does the Prime Minister agree that helping people who want to work hard is the right thing to do, that taking them out of tax altogether is the right thing to do, and that making work pay is the right thing to do—instead of insulting them, as some politicians have done by calling them trash?”
