Instead of hammering families and small businesses with yet more tax hikes, Rachel Reeves should be going for growth by getting a better trade deal with Europe.

Headlight dazzle can be dangerous and can make people nervous about driving in the dark. We need regulation that helps drivers to see the road ahead without endangering other road users.

We’re proud to have stood up to Farage’s reckless push to take Britain out of the ECHR.

We won’t let trumps America become Farage’s Britain.

Reform will “betray pensioners” if it reaches Number 10 as Farage fails to rule out changes to triple lock Responding to Nigel Farage failing to rule out changes to the triple lock if he was in Government, Liberal Democrat Treasury Spokesperson Daisy Cooper MP said:

It was as a result of the @libdems.org.uk commitment for a triple lock pension, that this was instigated in 2010 during the coalition.
Vote @libdems.org.uk as we will campaign for the Triple Lock to be maintained.

Graphic with an orange background and blue bands going from right to left. On the top-left is a circular image of Richard Foord sat on a chair looking toward other people out of shot. On the top-right is text reading “Richard Foord MP Demanding better for Honiton & Sidmouth”. Below the text is an outline of Devon filled with the Devon flag, and a Liberal Democrat logo. Underneath these are two images of Richard with other people. On the left of the graphic is a translucent box underneath "27th - 31st October 2025" and five chevrons acting as bullet points. Each point reads: - Wrote in the Herald about the Ottery Tar Barrells event - Spoke in a debate on regulating car headlight dazzle - Voted against Nigel Farage’s baby-and-bathwater Bill to remove the UK from the ECHR - Discussed future of Seaton Hospital with Chair of the Steering Committee - Called for electricity prices to be decoupled from price of wholesale gas, to boost renewables and save consumers money

Here's a snapshot of what I got up to last week:

Nobody gets more airtime or less scrutiny than Nigel Farage.

The family farm tax was flawed from the start, hurting real farmers while letting big investors off the hook.

In this Autumn Budget, the government must not turn a blind eye and should scrap this damaging and counterproductive tax.

Our constituency #Exmouth & #Exeter East relies on hospitality and tourism.

A photo of the Commons Chamber looking toward the Speaker's Chair, with MPs lined up among the benches facing toward the camera. In the front row are the party leaders: Robin Swann, Liz Saville-Roberts, Sir Ed Davey, Sir Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch, Nigel Farage, and Stephen Flynn, with the Speaker, Sir Lindsay Hoyle, between Starmer and Badenoch

75 years ago, the House of Commons chamber reopened after its destruction during the Second World War. This week, I joined MPs of all parties to commemorate this anniversary, which serves as a reminder of the need to maintain and renew our democratic values.

Seaton (Devon) Our banking hubs are a shared banking space which offer easy access to face-to-face cash and basic banking services in the heart of your community.

I am pleased to have it confirmed that Seaton’s new banking hub will open in Marine Place by the end of the year.

As banks abandon towns, MPs and councillors who care for their communities should lobby for continued access to cash - www.cashaccess.co.uk/hubs/seaton-...

We just stopped Nigel Farage’s plan to drag Britain out of the ECHR and tear up people’s rights. Farage wanted to scrap Churchill’s legacy and bring us closer to Trump's America.

I like to think Trump proposed meeting Putin in Budapest with full knowledge of assurances that the US, UK and Russia made in 1994, in the Budapest Memorandum. Then again, I am good at wishful thinking when it comes to the US and the international order.

No NHS trust has met the 62-day target for starting cancer treatment in 10 years.

Will the PM ensure the National Cancer Plan delivers the staff, equipment and investment needed to finally meet that target?

Daily Mail Article TEXT: HMRC has failed to answer almost 85 million calls from taxpayers over the past decade HM Revenue and Customs didn’t pick up an average of 22,700 calls from Britons seeking advice on their financial affairs every single day for the past ten years.

Thousands of people are being left on hold by HMRC without the financial help they need.

We are calling for a dedicated “Retiree Red Phone” hotline to give direct support to those struggling to get through.

Last Friday, I joined Alison, Vicky, and Charlotte for a sneak preview of some of the exhibits that we can enjoy at Kennaway House. I was particularly impressed by the contribution of primary school artists to The SW Academy of Fine & Applied Arts Open Exhibition in Sidmouth until 8th November.
