This is a new page where I will post up information on my work as your MP, on the debacle that is the Southern Rail (Govia Thameslink Railway) franchise.

Recent Parliamentary Questions to the Secretary of State for Transport:

W/C 11 July 2016.

This week, with Peter Kyle MP and Nicholas Soames MP, I became an Officer of the new cross party All Party Parliamentary Group on Southern Rail.  The Group is in the process of being formally registered with the House of Commons authorities, but in short it has been formed to give passengers cross party parliamentary representation.  More details should be posted here in due course.  I would like to encourage constituents to keep contacting me with their first hand experiences as these will be vital in formulating the messages that the APPG takes forward.
