I am proud to be the Labour MP for Hampstead and Kilburn, having been elected in 2015 and re-elected in 2017 and 2019.

My parents were married in Kilburn some forty years ago, I went to school here, and I have spent my weekends campaigning here since I was 16.

My politics are based on my experience of life in our area. I was previously a local councillor and Cabinet Member on Camden Council, with responsibility for our much loved community centres.

Since my first election in 2015, I have run campaigns that prioritise the interests of local people. From my stance against Brexit and HS2, to demanding better funding for local schools and health services – I am proud to have been a truly local representative.

I also serve as Shadow Economic Secretary to the Treasury (City Minister) since 2021, leading on the development of Labour’s policies for the City and on the financial services regulatory environment. I have a keen interest in the role of financial services in reducing regional inequalities and supporting the transition to a green economy.

I have previously served as Shadow Children and Early Years Minister and in Parliament I have been a passionate campaigner for early years education, mental health support and flexible working. For six years, I led a successful campaign in Parliament to release my constituent Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe from prison in Iran. I am also a trustee of the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust, a board member of the arts and theatre charity Good Chance and a patron of Leaders Plus, an organisation which supports parents in their careers.

This background lies at the heart of my determination to defend our local interests in Parliament.
