News From Westminster
This month has been as busy as any other, following the re-assembling of Parliament and the Queen’s Speech.

Here in Dorset, I had the exciting opportunity to see the inaugural train journey between Swanage and Wareham. There is a regular timetable over the summer, and I hope that this will in time
establish a regular service throughout the year and help to relieve some of the congestion on our roads.
I continue to hold regular surgeries for constituents. If you have an issue that you need help with, please do get in touch.
