Pleased to meet Michael Mew from Filton with MBDA representatives at the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) event.

I've agreed to visit MBDA Filton again soon.

I visited the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) event 2019 today to see many of the world-renowned companies from our area exhibiting.

Great to meet with several local employees and had interesting discussions about projects such as Tempest.

Following Education questions earlier today, I met again with Gavin Williamson MP, the Secretary of State for Education, to discuss further education being devolved to the West of England Combined Authority.

Delighted to met with Priti Patel MP, the Home Secretary, to discuss Government commitment to extra #Police Officers in our area and the campaign to recruit them.

Met with the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, Matt Hancock, today to discuss the exciting Conservative Government spending plans for the NHS in our area.

A pleasure to meet with inspirational students from Abbeywood School and Downend School on Monday as they visited the House of Commons and Parliament.

Both groups full of aspiring UK future leaders with some tough questions!

Earlier this week I attended an event in Parliament hosted by ABB, who have a presence locally and are a valued employer for our area.

They are one of many businesses based in the UK providing a digital transformation for a more globally competitive economy.

Today I met newly commissioned US Navy Pilots and a US Marine in the House of Commons.
