About your Member of Parliament

Your MP (Nusrat Ghani) represents you, and all of the people who live in Sussex Weald, at the UK Parliament in Westminster.

MPs split their time between Parliament and their constituency. In Parliament, they debate and vote on new laws, review existing laws, and question the Government. In the constituency, their focus is on supporting local people and championing local issues. They have a small staff team who help with casework, maintain their diaries, and monitor their inbox.

Recent appearances

• Detained British Nationals Abroad 5 Dec 2024

  To make the final Back-Bench contribution, which I have no doubt will be just as impactful as the others, I call Douglas McAllister.

• Detained British Nationals Abroad 5 Dec 2024

  I did not want to interrupt the hon. Member for Strangford, but he knows better than to refer to the Minister as “you” because it ends up meaning me in the Chair.

• Detained British Nationals Abroad 5 Dec 2024

  I call the Chair of the Foreign Affairs Committee.
