I am so proud of our NHS and the first class service offered by UK doctors and nurses.However, the quality of the service we deliver, free to anyone who needs it, makes the UK a target for unscrupulous health tourism.

I was recently informed by Highways England that they are to carry out work to improve the safety of the A38 between Alrewas and the Toyota A50 Junction.

I have backed the National Consumer Week, a campaign to help people use their consumer rights to get problems with faulty goods like TVs, laptops and mobile phones resolved.

Recently MPs overwhelmingly backed a Government amendment endorsing the Prime Minister’s March deadline for triggering Article 50.

I welcome the Government’s recent announcement of £3 billion of investment on improving roads in a boost for motorists across the UK and in South Derbyshire.

The Autumn Statement showed how this Conservative Government lead by our new Prime Minister Theresa May will build a country that works for everyone and was the new Government’s first big opportunity to show how it is building on previous work.

Last month MPs from across the country came together to learn from Swadlincote as Sainsbury’s and I hosted a Waste less, Save more event in Westminster.

In October I had the pleasure of hosting a reception at The House of Commons to celebrate 25 years of The National Forest. What an enormous asset The National Forest is to South Derbyshire and the Midlands.

A few weeks ago I joined TV’s Dr Hilary Jones at an event at the House of Commons to celebrate the role of school milk in supporting childhood health.

Like so many of you the 11th of November and Remembrance Sunday means so much to me.
