Today marks 6 months since I won the by election in Uxbridge and South Ruislip (UXSR) and became your full-time & local MP.
Not only was I born here, but I also have lived here my whole life, and still do.
Likewise, for 5 years I have been your local councillor for South Ruislip, and I still am.
Therefore, answering correspondence is not new to me, as I am fully equipped with local knowledge, to understand and act on the concerns of my residents.
My ongoing daily experience in answering calls, emails, and meetings with residents to investigate and discuss their case, has taught me what my residents want for Uxbridge & South Ruislip.
& that's why...
YOUR priorities, are MY priorities:
From residents who own small businesses, to the residents who look after a vulnerable family member - I know what the concerns of UXSR's residents are, and that's what helped me form OUR 6 priorities:
1. Rebuild a new Hillingdon Hospital.
2. Continue the fight against ULEZ.
3. Get more police on the beat across UXSR.
4. Support our local and high street businesses.
5. Protect our green spaces.
6. Expanding places for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND).
Not only have I progressed each of our priorities over the 6 months since being elected, but I have gone beyond.
Further to our shared priorities, I have spoken in the Chamber and met with Ministers on urgent matters such as the Bills surrounding animal welfare, supporting our sports clubs that enable our community to grow, and raising awareness of the fantastic heritage our constituency has to offer not just to our residents but to the UK as a whole.
I continue to update and respond to residents of Uxbridge and South Ruislip daily across all my social media, monthly newsletters and columns in local & national newspapers and according to current affairs, TV interviews too.
I will continue to support my constituents everyday and act on their concerns.
As ever, if you would like to contact me, visit me in Parliament, or book a surgery in the constituency, I will be happy to meet you - email me at steve.tuckwell.mp@parliament.uk.
