Supporting Our Children

On Monday, I had the pleasure of attending a community meeting in Hamble organised by Hamble Parish Council to discuss the plans for mineral extraction at Hamble Airfield.

As constituents will know, I have been completely opposed to Cemex's plans for mineral extraction at Hamble airfield. 

I continue to oppose Cemex's plan for mineral extraction in Hamble. 

I'm extremely concerned by the plans put forward by Cemex for Mineral Extraction on Hamble Lane in Hamble.

Many people have asked for my view on the proposals for a mineral extraction site in Hamble. I have always opposed the senseless development along Hamble Lane and believe that this area cannot cope with anymore development. I am completely opposed to this proposal. 

It was great to speak with Cllr Steve Broomfield about a number of key issues for Fair Oak, Horton Heath and West End North. 

This morning I attended Hedge End’s Remembrance Service. This year I had representatives laying wreaths on my behalf across the Eastleigh constituency. On this national day of remembrance it’s important that we pay respects to those who gave their lives so we can live ours.

Today I visited Hopscotch Nursery in Eastleigh today after their grand opening at the weekend. It was a pleasure to meet the staff and hear all about the great work that the team there are doing. 

As we remember Armistice Day and those who gave their lives for our freedom, I joined the service of remembrance in Eastleigh this morning. I also had the pleasure of unveiling a new bench to remember those who gave their lives during the Second World War. Lest We Forget.

After lots of wonderful entries to my MP Christmas Card competition from local schools, I had the very tough job of trying to pick a winner from many truly excellent designs.
