If you'd like to talk with me about the issues that matter to you, or if you're interested in helping my campaign to be Chipping Barnet's first Labour MP then please get in touch. I'd love to hear from you.
Our constituency has been represented by Conservatives since its creation in 1974. It's time for this to change.
We need to replace this chaotic Conservative government with economic stability and rising prosperity that only Keir Starmer's Labour party can provide. I'll put my experience as an economist into practice as our MP – rebuilding our economy as part of Labour's team.
I will advocate for Chipping Barnet and our public services so that our hospitals, schools and local police get the investment and support they need.
With Labour in government, and a Labour MP that's on your side, we can build a safer, more prosperous and greener Chipping Barnet.
I'm proud to have support from the trade union movement.
I’d love to discuss the issues that matter to you – please get in touch via the form above.
Here’s some of the changes I think we need to make to improve the lives of residents in Chipping Barnet - and to reshape our the way our country works for the better, for good.
As a local resident I know first hand just how stretched our vital public services are locally. I'll fight to get our schools, hospitals - from Barnet Hospital to local GP surgeries - and police service the investment they need.
A rapid increase in green investment will bring new jobs and opportunities, reduce costs for families here in Chipping Barnet, and protect our planet. There's no time to waste.
It is unacceptable that Tory cuts to the police have left our communities more vulnerable to crime. We need to properly fund the police and criminal justice system.
Britain’s unacceptably high housing costs need tackling head-on. This means we need new homes with better infrastructure and truly affordable housing.
Workers here in Chipping Barnet deserve a better deal. This means a higher minimum wage, but also new Fair Pay Agreements brokered between government and employers to drive up standards and conditions.
Our local high streets are often the heart of the community, but they've been let down by years of Tory economic mismanagement. I'm committed to turning this around, and have got the practical ideas to do just that.
I’m an experienced economist. I started my career in HM Treasury and I’m currently working at the UK’s leading anti-poverty charity, the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, leading our work on building a more secure economy.
I’ve put my economic and policy skills into action, I co-wrote the paper that called for the furlough scheme - pushing the Tories into taking action to support jobs during the pandemic.
I understand the struggles families are facing. I grew up in a low income family, receiving Free School Meals as a child, and I know the importance of economic security.
