Like many new MPs, I have been thinking very carefully about how I can use the skills and experience from my previous career to support the important legislative work done in this place and to benefit my constituents. It was my experience of working here during the last financial crisis that led me to become a financial regulator at the Bank of England, so I aim to use my voice to ensure that the pursuit of much-needed economic growth is done in such a way as to preserve the stability of our economy and our financial system. I intend to draw on my 13 years of experience as an elected trade union representative to ensure that the new deal for working people delivers for my hard-working constituents, who often struggle with insufficient pay and rights, and to help to drive the Government’s commitment to invest in our people by improving their knowledge and skills.
