Last week we held an event in Parliament, sponsored by @SallyAnn1066.
Ahead of a General Election, we presented our #ManifestoForOurSeas to remind parliamentarians of the importance of our ocean and urge them to prioritise ocean health in their decisions.
Report published by the South East APPG about the need for a new approach to transport planning that addresses regional challenges and explores public-private collaboration and investment in new technologies.

Today on #VEDay we remember the generation of heroes who fought to keep us free at home and abroad.
Let us never forget their service and sacrifice in defence of freedom.
Earlier this week Secretary of State @SteveBarclay joined @SallyAnn1066@HuwMerriman and Hugh Broom in Sussex to hold a Q&A for farmers and local businesses as part of our ‘Defra Minister on Tour’ series 🚜
Thank you to @BatchellerMonk for sponsoring the event 🌳
🌳 Out campaigning today with @SallyAnn1066 and Hastings & Rye @Conservatives.
🗳️ Next Thursday #VoteConservative to secure a strong local team to deliver high quality services whilst keeping council tax as low as possible.
At PMQs I was able to highlight the concerns of the former Labour councillors of Hastings Borough Council about the national Labour Party. It is vital to vote for Conservative candidates in the local elections to ensure a "dereliction of local democracy" does not continue.
The UK is leading in a more dangerous world, and I welcome this essential increase in our defence spending which will help us meet the challenges ahead.
I was delighted to co-lead a debate yesterday on hospice funding with my lovely friend @Gibbo4Darlo. Our hospices, palliative care and end of life services need to be properly funded and I hope our debate has furthered the cause for a sustainable funding model.
I believe our welfare system is about far more than benefit payments; it is about changing lives for the better.
Today’s speech from Prime Minister @RishiSunak set out our plan for a new welfare settlement in Britain.
