This website is about my work
as the Labour MP for Walthamstow.
I believe that it is important that people know what
you stand for in politics and in all of my time in Parliament since 1992
I have tried to be honest about my views on any issue. That's why my
personal opinions are on this site, not the
latest
official press releases. If you want
those use the 'Other Sites' page to get to
the appropriate site.
Use the 'Contact
me' page to send me an email or ask me a
question, but check the Site Index or Search first to see if the issue
you are interested in is already dealt with somewhere on the site.
To see my views
on a range of
current issues, and
archived press releases and articles, use
the 'News
& Views' page.
Go to the 'In
Parliament' page to see what I have done in Parliament.
I will always try to give
help and advice to any constituent with a problem, but I can't offer
help to anyone who doesn't live in Walthamstow. The 'Help & Advice' page
gives details of my advice surgeries.

Standing down
I have decided that I will
stand down from Parliament at the next General Election. This is entirely
a personal decision and not for political reasons. I will continue to do
all I can to represent people in Walthamstow in the time before the
election. Stella Creasy has recently been selected as the Labour candidate
for Walthamstow for the next election ....

Hajj
Pilgrimages
Are you considering a Hajj Pilgrimage?
I have had complaints, as have other MPs,
about a small minority of the people who advertise and arrange Hajj visits
to Saudi Arabia. I have produced a short guide which
will help you to make sure you are travelling with a reputable tour
operator.....

Annual Report
Each year I publish a
report to constituents. My 2007 report has been published. It
should have been delivered to everyone living in Walthamstow, but this is
always difficult to guarantee. If you didn't get a copy you can download
it as a PDF file. Right click on the link and then choose 'Save target as' to
download and save the
report. |

MPs Expenses are
Published
Under the Freedom of Information Act
the details of MPs expenses claims for 2006 - 2007 have just been
published. I am giving full details of my claims so that
constituents can see exactly how much I claimed and what it was
for, not just the total figure which is all you find in the press
reports
