ALT Today I will be voting against the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, as I did before. With over 30 years’ experience of working in the NHS improving services for patients and carers, it is my belief that no patient should have to suffer with such pain where they feel that assistive dying is the only option left to them. Palliative care does work and brings about dignity to people as they near the end of their life. Universal palliative care should be made available to everyone. I sat on the Bill committee for the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, in the last parliamentary session; I had concerns about coercion, unreliable prognosis, the influence of medical professionals and the protection of vulnerable people. There is also the wider question of inequality, people do not approach the end of life with equal access to hospice care, pain relief, psychological support, or help from their families. As there are existing inequalities in the healthcare system, a system t

ALT I welcome the Foreign Secretary’s announcement to introduce restrictions on trade in goods originating from illegal settlements in the West Bank. Alongside Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain and Sweden, the UK is sending a clear message that actions which undermine the prospects for peace cannot continue. We firmly oppose the expansion of settlements, the annexation of Palestinian land and the forcible displacement of Palestinian communities. The Government of Israel must halt settlement expansion, ensure accountability for settler violence and investigate allegations made against Israeli forces. We are equally clear in our determination to tackle antisemitism wherever it occurs. The United Kingdom remains unequivocally committed to a two-state solution that enables Israel and a sovereign, democratic and viable Palestinian state to live side by side in peace, security and mutual recognition within secure and internationally recognise

ALT The Government has announced that they are holding a rapid review into Local Government Reorganisation. This is to ensure that in light of legal advice, the process for Local Government Reorganisation is robust and complies with the law. I have raised a number of concerns about Local Government Reorganisation in Broxtowe with both the current and former the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities & Local Government including questions about the expected savings, how the consultation responses were considered and the impact of splitting Broxtowe’s existing borough and parish councils across two authorities. I hope that this pause will provide the Government with the opportunity to further consider these concerns. This means that next May’s local elections in Broxtowe will be held for the existing boundaries for Broxtowe Borough Council.

ALT Today the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government Steve Reed has announced the new authorities that will be established in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire as part of local government reorganisation. The Government have chosen option Bii. This means there will be two unitary authorities in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire. For Broxtowe this means that Beeston, Bramcote, Stapleford, Awsworth, Cossall and Trowell will become part of the new Greater Nottingham authority while Eastwood, Brinsley and Greasley will be part of a new Nottinghamshire County authority. There will be elections to the new unitary councils in May 2027. These elections will replace any scheduled local elections, and affected councillors will have their terms extended. The new councils will come into force in April 2028. Each new authority will receive an unprecedented £900,000 for the cost of transition and up to £150,000 in supplementary funding to support Children’s Services, Adult Social Care

ALT MPs’ Statement on Donna Ockenden’s Independent Maternity Review of Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust Today, our thoughts are first and foremost with the bereaved families, harmed families and all those whose lives have been forever changed by the events detailed within Donna Ockenden's report. We pay tribute to every family who came forward and shared their experiences. Many have spent years reliving unimaginable grief and trauma in pursuit of truth, accountability and change. Their courage, determination and resilience have brought us to this moment. We also recognise the staff who raised concerns and spoke out for patient safety, often at considerable personal and professional cost. Our thanks also go to Donna Ockenden and her team for their transparency and consistency with which they have engaged with MPs whose constituents are served by Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust. The findings of this report are deeply concerning and make for difficult reading. T

ALT The families who fought for this review have already changed Nottingham. Together, we must now ensure their courage delivers change that protects families for generations to come.

ALT We are aware that two people have been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in a public office in connection with the running of the mortuary service at Nottingham University Hospitals Trust. This is a serious and significant development, and we understand that affected families are likely to feel deep distress following this news. We are meeting with Nottinghamshire Police regarding these arrests and the wider Operation Perth investigation into maternity services later today. We also remain in close contact with the Chair of the Independent Review into Maternity Services, Donna Ockenden, and the Nottingham University Hospitals Trust leadership. We will continue to press for accountability and justice for affected families, and for the change needed to ensure thatsuch horrific failures do not take place again.

ALT I would like to share my gratitude to Keir Starmer for his service to our country as our Prime Minister and as Leader of the Labour Party. As Leader of the Opposition, he turned the Labour Party around, taking us from our worst defeat since 1935 to bringing in a Labour Government for the first time in 14 years. Under his leadership, this Government has delivered incredible progress: bringing down NHS waiting lists, securing the biggest upgrade in workers’ rights in a generation, abolishing no-fault evictions, introducing new breakfast clubs, and investing in the clean energy that will shape our future. The decision to stand down cannot have been easy. I know his choice is based on what he believes to be the best course of action for the country and I thank him for his dedication and leadership, both at home and abroad. My focus, as ever, remains firmly on Broxtowe and the people I represent.
