Dear Constituent, Thank you for contacting me about controlling the spread of bovine TB. The UK’s bovine TB eradication strategy is based on the findings of scientific research.

Dear Constituent, Thank you for contacting me about animal sentience. First and foremost, I believe animals are sentient beings who can feel pain and suffering and I would like to reassure you that strong action is being taken to reduce their risk of harm. The Government is committed to maki

Dear Constituent, Thank you for contacting me about A level and GCSE results this year. I understand this has been a distressing time for students. The pandemic has created circumstances no one could ever have imagined or wished for.

I believe that the use of animals should be avoided wherever possible, and in the limited cases when animals are used, this should be done in accordance with strict guidelines to ensure any suffering is minimised.

We are a nation of animal lovers, so it is only right that we have some of the highest welfare standards in the world. In addition to fur farming being banned in the UK, I am pleased to note that the import of fur products is tightly regulated.
