Dear Resident,
I hope this finds you well.
In this last bulletin of 2022, I would like to take the opportunity to look ahead to 2023:
I look forward to continue working in Government with our Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, whose leadership bid I supported from the outset, and progressing the UK’s trade agenda in my Ministerial role. The UK’s accession to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and many negotiations on trade agreements will feature on my agenda.
I am hopeful to see the end of Putin’s aggression against Ukraine with the UK’s leading role to stop this barbaric conflict. In May, Liverpool will host the Eurovision on behalf of the Ukraine, this year’s winner.
Our country and the Commonwealth are now eagerly awaiting the coronation of King Charles III in May next year. I certainly look forward to this momentous occasion.
Locally, I will continue my campaigns to save our vital local bus routes and to ensure a Post Office will be available to residents in the North End Road area. The fight against Heathrow expansion, a local priority issue I resigned from the Government over in 2018, and my opposition to night flights at the airport will go on.
I will be vigorously continuing my campaign against Labour’s 20% Schools Tax (more information below).
I will keep a close eye on any development proposals at Earl's Court and Stamford Bridge and I am anticipating great sporting events locally with our two Premier League Clubs Chelsea FC and Fulham FC.
I would like to wish all Chelsea & Fulham residents a very Merry Christmas and a healthy and successful 2023!
Yours,
Greg Hands
The Rt Hon Greg Hands MP
Member of Parliament for Chelsea & Fulham
