The organist was telling me today about the time a phone went off during the voluntary. "I'll show this lout", he thought. He changed stops and proceeded to improvise sarcastically around the ringtone.

Some of you will already know that I left the House of Commons Service earlier this month after 28 years service. I've had a fascinating and varied career supporting the work of the central democratic institution in the UK - and I have worked with some truly terrific people.

WATCH- Select Committees rightly spend great deal of time hearing from staleholders and experts. Last week @commonseac.parliament.uk heard from great group of sixth formers from across the country who will be affected by housing growth and impact on nature. Hear what they had to say, here:

Following Rachel Reeves' announcement of support for a third runway at Heathrow Airport, our Chair, @tobyperkinsmp.bsky.social calls for clarity on how the Government can do this and meet its commitments to the environment. Find out more: committees.parliament.uk/committee/62...

“The new era for cleaner, greener aviation promised by Ministers must now be turbocharged as the Government gives its backing to a third runway at Heathrow. I welcome the Chancellor's commitment that any proposal must meet strict rules on noise, air quality and carbon emissions, but more detail is desperately needed on how this will be achieved. Aviation could be the largest emitting sector in the UK by 2050, and noise and air pollution from Heathrow already has a significant effect on the urban environment of west London.”
