General Election

 

It has been an honour to represent Stratford on Avon as its Member of Parliament since 2010. I am not seeking re-election, so another Member of Parliament will be taking my place. This website is a record of the work I've done as an MP, but since a General Election has been called there are no MPs until after Polling Day.
