Improving our transport infrastructure is key not only for our future prosperity but also for an improved quality of life.

I welcome Boris Johnson’s recent announcement of 20,000 new police officers over the next three years to strengthen law and order.

I will work to ensure we get our fair share in West Cornwall and that, when they are needed, they are able to respond quickly and effectively.

It is vital that we attract more well-paid, sustainable jobs to lift the areas of deprivation we have in West Cornwall and on Scilly.

I believe West Cornwall is poised to enjoy an exciting period of economic growth with a Government that is prepared to help the region maximise the opportunities presented by Brexit.

Boris Johnson’s deal gets us out of the disastrous Common Fisheries Policy, a policy that has inflicted huge damage on our fishing fleet.

For as long as people struggle to get a home that they can afford, I’ll continue to press planners and developers to provide quality homes.

I am campaigning for a ‘Greener and Healthier West Cornwall and Scilly’ and I will work tirelessly for decisive action to cut harmful emissions and to protect and enhance nature.

An overwhelming 84% of Cornish schoolchildren now attend a school that is rated either Outstanding or Good, up from 73% in 2010.

I will continue to press for the close integration of health and care services, for more NHS dentists and better diagnostic services closer to home.

Against all the odds Boris Johnson has negotiated a new deal with Brussels and I am confident that a Conservative Government can finally get Brexit done.
