Important issues

Common questions about non-party-political issues of current interest will be answered here.

Should Clause 28 be retained?

My experience as a school master taught me that there were, sadly, men who would prey upon the young and vulnerable and so I strongly support the retention of Clause 28.

Should country sports be banned?

I am a strong supporter of all legitimate country sports. There is no logic in banning hunting without banning shooting and fishing. To ban all or any would have a devastating effect upon the countryside and upon our rural economy. I strongly agree with leading naturalists, such as David Bellamy and Staffordshire's Phil Drabble, that country sports should not be banned.

Do you condone abortion?

To abort is to take a life and I do not, and could not, ever support abortion on demand.

Information for constituents

Constituents are the residents of the South Staffordshire constituency, who elected me to office. I regret I can only address concerns of my own constituents. If you are not sure who your Member of Parliament is, see the Constituency Locata Service.
