Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 05/12/2025I am extremely disappointed by the Planning Inspectorate’s decision to allow development of the site west of Bewley Road in Angmering. While I accept the need for more housing, this ignores the wishes of residents and the democratic decision of Arun District Council. 021
Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 04/12/2025I know this has come as a surprise but the decision to postpone the Sussex Mayoral elections until 2028 does make good sense ✅ By 2028 our Unitary Authorities will be in place and the good news is, Sussex and Brighton will still be getting an extra £38 million a year💷 011

Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 29/11/2025Great that govt will review the cases of 1000's of unpaid carers left in debt by confusing guidance on Carer's Allowance since 2015 This despite the vital work unpaid carers do, saving the UK economy £184 billion per year. If you've been affected visit carersuk.org 000
Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 27/11/2025I'm extremely proud that this Labour government has scrapped the 2-child benefit cap, lifting 450,000 children out of poverty, including 1,350 here in #WorthingWest. It will also help relieve the huge pressure on local foodbanks like our own amazing #WorthingFoodFoundation. #Budget #ChildPoverty 020
Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 26/11/2025@AlexBallingerMP and I have been campaigning for changes to gambling tax for many months.

Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 24/11/2025Both as an MP and a former Leader of Worthing Borough Council, I am only too aware of the extreme financial pressures faced by local government💯 I’m campaigning hard to make sure Worthing finally gets the funding we deserve. #FairFunding #WorthingBoroughCouncil 011
Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 20/11/2025On a visit to Number 11 last night I made my case for gambling tax reform with Rachel - starting with online gambling which has highest evidence of associated harms.

Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 20/11/2025Banning plastic wet wipes is a major step forward in protecting our rivers, beaches and wildlife🌊 11 billion wet wipes are used every year - so it's great to see the government taking action✅ 001

Dr Beccy Cooper MP @drbeccycoopermp.bsky.social · 10/11/2025The recent coroner’s verdict on the death of Lee Adams lists gambling disorder as a medical cause of death, further underlining the link between gambling and suicide.
