I share your concern about the use of fossil fuels and tackling climate change is a priority for me. 

Thank you for writing to me with one simple request – to stand up for refugees in this country.

I am aware of the Post Office’s Save our Cash campaign, and I am continuing to work with colleagues to address the valid concerns that are raised by this campaign. The Treasury is committed to protecting access to cash for those who need it and I welcome that a Call for Evidence was published in

Thank you for bringing to my attention the Great Big Green Week which is taking place this year from 18-26 September. I am pleased that this is taking place before COP26 to encourage further awareness of the key issues surrounding climate change.

On the recommendation of the independent Oakervee review, the Prime Minister gave the go ahead to HS2, alongside major improvements to local transport networks up and down the country. 

Thank you for your email about climate change and I can understand you wanting to know what the Government are doing to mitigate the effects.

I am sure you agree that we owe a debt of gratitude to all those who have worked with our country to make Afghanistan a better place over the last twenty years. It is the case that many of these people, particularly women and children, are now in urgent need of help.

GRASSLANDS It is disappointing that we have lost more than 90 per cent of our meadows over the last 100 years.

We have a proud history in this country on animal welfare, but my Ministerial colleagues and I know there is more that can be done.
