Callum’s Catch Up 03.07.25

Views on welfare reform

Sorry that the newsletter has come late this week. I wanted to make sure that I could share my full and frank views following the second reading of the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill - which you can find here. I would like to assure everyone who has written to me that they will receive a response - I know it is a very emotive issue, and one I care about deeply.

I promised when I was elected that I would be open and transparent, and this is why I have launched the first in a series of ‘Meet your MP’ events in Buckingham and Winslow next week. Click here for more information and how to register - I hope to see some of you soon.

As always, thank you for reading. If there is anything I can do to help you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
