Another week working hard for North East Hampshire. 🔶 This week's highlights: 🩺 Visited Whitewater GP practice to discuss changes to the way GP services are delivered and ensuring nobody is left behind in the move to adopt new technology.

💧 It's time to hold water companies to account 🚰South East Water supplies fresh water to most of our area. It has failed to deliver a pipeline that would help secure our water supply and reduce the need to take water from local chalk aquifers.

What a stunt! Farage's by-election is clearly a publicity stunt designed to distract from an investigation into his funding and vast financial gifts. What's worse, the tax-payer is picking up the bill.

Tune in to ITV Meridian tonight📺 Tonight catch me with @kitbradshaw.bsky.social on The Last Word, straight after the News at Ten, talking about the political issues facing our country right now.

Farage triggering a by-election that he is going to stand in - a bold political risk taken to avoid the scrutiny to which all MPs are subject. The difference is that most of us don't receive £5million from a friend and work with convicted fraudsters 🤷‍♀️ Man of the people? Pah!

Pity-me statements are demeaning. Farage is rich, educated and powerful. He is not a victim. He has earned millions alongside his career as an MP. No wonder he can afford to bankroll his own office costs! He is a thin-skinned whinger, not a leader.

Farage talking about "The Establishment" as if he's not a part of it. He needs to be held to account as the rest of us are.

Yesterday I got a sneak peek of the new Offgrid Energy Labs in Hook, celebrating the opening of their new factory and UK HQ right here in North East Hampshire⚡

Asking your questions and holding Government to account. I promised to be a hard-working, local MP for North East Hampshire.

Celebrating two years as your MP 🧡 Two years ago, you put your trust in me to represent our local community. I promised to be a hard-working, visible, local MP and it has been an honour to work hard every day since, in the hope of meeting your expectations.

With businesses closing on our high streets, it's vital that we explore all options to support them. Fleet has lost all its banks, many small businesses and cafes. And the area's most extensive high street is also about to lose M&S, Morrisons Local, Scoop and the Post Office 📮.

Westminster Hall debate 🗣️ Calling on the Minister to urgently change early years funding 👶 Early years is the best investment our country can make to secure a child's future. But I’ve heard from so many people that the sector is being pushed to the brink.

Yesssss! ⚽️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽️

🏪 I spoke in a debate today about overhauling the business rates system to support our small high street businesses. Our high streets are the backbone of local communities but they're being held back by a business rates system that does not work. Many are closing altogether.

🏛️ It’s been a busy day in Westminster. Here are my initial thoughts on some of today’s big issues: 📋 Maternity care 🛡️ The Defence Investment Plan 🏪 Supporting businesses on our local high streets #Westminster #MaternityCare #AmosReview #Defence #HighStreets #LocalBusiness #mp #northeasthampshire

📍 An eventful week in Westminster: As the revolving door of number 10 goes around again, people are tired of chaotic changes in leadership that deliver nothing for local people.

📢 Hartley Wintney Fire Station is calling on locals 🚒 Hartley Wintney Fire Station urgently needs volunteers to ensure it can keep its doors open. This is an excellent opportunity to be part of a team that works tirelessly to keep local communities safe through prevention, education and support.

As many of you may know, the Post Office has announced it is closing along with the local Morrisons on Fleet High Street. This is particularly concerning given the bank closures over the recent years, all of which cited the Post Office as a resource for local people to conduct banking.

The NHS has announced its preferred site for the rebuild of Frimley Park Hospital at Frimley Fuel Allotments and Pine Ridge Golf Course. While I welcome progress after years of delay, no site is perfect.

Kids on social media is the topic I've had the highest number of emails about, with no exceptions. And as a busy parent, I understand all the challenges around managing screen time and permissions. I understand the risks and the dangers of unmonitored time online and powerful algorithms.

Happy Monday, here's a round up of last week: 🎓 Kicked things off delivering training for our three new interns. ⚡ Joined Liberal Democrat colleagues to rally behind the Essential Energy Guarantee.

Today in the House of Commons I spoke in the Railways Bill, making the case for reliable WiFi and connectivity on trains. Thousands of residents from North East Hampshire commute to London every day. When trains are delayed (which is far too often), we need to be able to work.

Busy doesn't even cover it this week! Here's the round-up 👇 In Parliament, I spoke in three debates: 🏥 The Health Bill ⚔️ The Armed Forces Bill 🚌 Home to School Transport (Westminster Hall) Also in Westminster: 💐Championed fair hospice funding 📱 Attended a roundtable on mobile connectivity

This afternoon, I visited Fleet & Aldershot Talking Newspaper (FATN) - an incredible local charity supporting residents for nearly 60 years. 👉 Find out more: www.fatntalkingnews.org.uk.

Proud to speak up for our veterans in Parliament 🏛️ This week I supported New Clause 12, a Lib Dem amendment to the Armed Forces Bill, to create a dedicated Veterans' Mental Health Oversight Officer in law.

M&S Food in Fleet is closing This morning I wrote to @marksandspencer 's Corporate Affairs Director to express my concerns and disappointment about the closure of Fleet's M&S Food store, and its impact on our high street, our businesses, and our residents.

It’s volunteering week, so perfect timing that yesterday I had the honour of being present when His Majesty's Lord-Lieutenant of Hampshire presented Aerobility with the King's Award for Voluntary Service.

Yesterday I spoke in the Health Bill debate to raise serious concerns about the proposed abolition of Healthwatch.

£25 billion a year. That's what Starmer's timid EU reset is costing the UK. We can't tackle the cost-of-living crisis while clinging to Farage and the Tories' terrible Brexit deal and Labour's half-measures won't cut it either.

Yesterday was a big day. I attended the King’s Speech to hear about the plans for the next Parliamentary session and then I caught up with ITV regional news about what it all means for North East Hampshire 🎥✨

Today I've written to the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions about the ongoing failures at the Capita Civil Service Pension Scheme. Constituents who have given decades of public service are being left without income for months, unable to pay bills or buy food.

100 years of Sir David Attenborough. 🌍 For nearly a century, he's been the voice that brought the wild into our living rooms, from rainforest canopies to ocean depths, from blue whales to birds of paradise. He didn't just show us the natural world; he taught us to love it, and to fight for it.

The results are in and I want to say a huge thank you. 🔶Thank you to everyone who voted Liberal Democrats. We held all the seats we were defending and gained one seat on each council - Hart and Hampshire.

For Deaf Awareness Week this week, I wanted to highlight an amazing session the Women and Equalities select committee had with senior representatives from the BSL Advisory Board and the British Deaf Association.

🏥 Our hospital rebuild cannot wait. I am leading a petition to bring forward the rebuild of Basingstoke Hospital and I will be taking our voices directly to Number 10. Sign up following this link: www.alexbrewer.uk/campaigns/re... #northeasthampshire #mp #basingstokehospital

Let's clear something up. Some political opponents have been spreading misinformation about my voting record this week. I was absent from Westminster due to personal circumstances, something Parliament's system does not reflect.

Two Jewish men were stabbed in broad daylight in Golders Green yesterday in what police have declared a terrorist incident. This is not just an attack on two individuals, it is an attack on an entire community that has already endured arson, vandalism, and hate.

My team and I are here to help. Swipe through the images above to see a few highlights. Whether you are dealing with delays, being passed from pillar to post, or simply not getting the answers you deserve, that is exactly what we are here for.

Your chance to have your say on Personal Independence Payments (PIP) 📢 The Timms Review is asking disabled people, carers, experts and organisations to submit evidence on how Personal Independence Payment can be made fairer and more effective.

Following on from the positive response I had from last weeks voting summary I am doing it again. Here's how I voted last week, and a few reasons behind each decision. Because my votes should never be a mystery. #northeasthampshire #mp #politics #ukpolitics

By the Government's own estimations, investing in women-led companies could unlock a whopping £250 billion in economic growth. Something we all need right now. So if women entrepreneurs are an untapped engine for economic growth, why isn't the Government treating them like one?

💧 An update on water, one of my top priorities in Westminster and something residents across North East Hampshire raise with me constantly. I've seen the sewage gushing into our rivers with my own eyes. Fish dying. Waterways polluted. Communities let down. 😤

🚨 A Lib Dem policy win worth shouting about. 🔶 The government has announced it will break the link between gas and electricity prices, moving old renewable generators onto fixed-price contracts, just as Ed Davey called for last July and we adopted as party policy in our Bournemouth conference.

A day in the life of an MP in the constituency 🎬 I often get asked what I get up to in North East Hampshire when I'm not in Westminster. This day was a good example.

Special Educational Needs is consistently one of the top of the issues in my inbox. I’ve signed two open letters, one on SEND and one on diagnoses in Hampshire – issues that my colleagues and I are taking action on. #SEND #ADHD #Inclusion #SpecialEducationalNeeds #mp #northeasthampshire

🏡 Rural households shouldn't be penalised just for where they live. I spoke in Parliament today about the real cost facing families across North East Hampshire: higher bills, lower energy efficiency, and a £987 fuel poverty gap compared to urban households. I'm calling on the Government to act.

The Netflix doc has everyone talking about the manosphere, and rightly so. It's influencing a generation of young men and having negative impacts on men and women. As your MP and a member of the Women and Equalities Select Committee, I've been pushing for answers on what's driving this.
