HE Gaitri Issar Kumar. Our thanks to @sajidjavid ,Theresa Villiers, @BobBlackman @scullyp @DSimmonds_RNP @RamiRanger in making the event most memorable. It was a celebration of the contributions by the Gaitriji to India&UK🙏
Kicking off our latest session in Parliament to discuss the levelling up opportunities in childcare and early education. Thanks to all our speakers, including Shadow Minister for Children @helenhayes_ MP for your insightful comments and @DSimmonds_RNP MP for chairing the meeting.
Interesting presentations @APPGearlyyears which I am pleased to chair today on behalf @SteveBrineMP. The greatest benefit to a child is the money spent in the early years agrees @helenhayes_
An important step to delivering the new hospital. Thanks to @Hillingdon for being so supportive of bringing this forward.

Pleasure to join @JamesSunderl @PaulHowellMP for the British Motorsports event showcasing Uk engineering and design excellence in parliament this afternoon
Thank you to all Parliamentarians who joined us today to help make #RefugeesWelcome.
An especially big thank you to @timloughton for his ongoing support and for sponsoring the event.💛
Together we can help people escaping conflict and crises to regain control of their futures.
Fascinating and moving meeting with Ukrainians who have settled into the constituency. Amazing support from local residents
Great news! More ancient semi-natural woodland will be protected for future generations to explore and enjoy after @NaturalEngland extended NNR status at Ruislip Woods.
The timely news comes 25 years after the site became London's first NNR. 🌳🌳🌳

Great morning to be out for our street surgery in Colham and Cowley with @SWallana and Cllr Chamdal (not pictured!). Identified local issues and got to meet residents who were pleased with all the work @Hillingdon_Tory do for the area!
Lots of great stalls and abundant community spirit in evidence in Ickenham today @IckFest @Ickenhamresi
Thanks to the @SeeAbility team who taught me a useful thing or two about the value of eye tests in early childhood. Questions to take back to @UKParliament
Today we showed MP David Simmonds our eye care work at Pentland Field special school.
Great to demonstrate just how important eye care is for children with SEND & explain the @NHSEngland promise to rollout services in all special schools to deliver an #EqualRightToSight
Woohoo! Bookings for our FIESTA summer holiday activities open next Wednesday 22 June. There’s musical theatre, multi-sports (and tons more) for kids to do from 25 July - 26 August and fun’s built-in to every session! Set your alarm, places go early. https://buff.ly/3QmtJl9
Well done @anjanapatel01 for showing the difference a Conservative-led council can make for residents
Good morning #Harrow 👋
We’re out with our enforcement team and Cllr @anjanapatel01, cabinet member for environment and community safety on an early morning raid on suspected Houses of Multiple Occupancy (HMO)
We’ll keep you updated on what we’re doing this morning.
A helpful description of the plans from @pritipatel for supporting asylum seekers in Rwanda. Everyone is entitled to due process of law including @europeancourt but we should give Rwanda a hearing on this too.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jun/14/orientation-plan-for-arriving-asylum-seekers-outlined-by-rwandan-officials?CMP=share_btn_tw
As I heard from the Uk judge Russia has the most cases against it of the member countries and the UK the fewest and the Uk is seen as an example of effective rule of law internationally
Learning visit to @europeancourt to meet our UK judge and the presiding judge from Iceland. Founded by Churchill after WW2 this remains a vital guardian of the rule of law and democracy
Huge turnout on a lovely day for the Harefield village fete which it was a pleasure to officially open. Fun for all the family
Excellent drop in @Harrowmencap Community Connexions event at Fairfield Church, Northwood Hills this morning
And a lovely visit to @networkrail @TfL Hatch End award winning station to see the impressive planting and flower displays put together by the station team
Very impressive start from @MGoodwinFreeman in Hatch End alongside @Councillorsuzie Great plans they are laying out for the future of valuable community facilities @HAConservatives
Valuable meeting with @phdumont and as a fellow Conservative I wish him luck in the French general election. Useful basis for discussion about how to deal better with migrant crossings and see the situation in Calais first hand with @NosheenaMobarik
Save the dates! Our annual Careers Fair's back and better than ever, with not one but two days of virtual and in-house workshops and expert presentations on Thursday 23 and Friday 24 June.
Really interesting visit to @RBandH Harefield Hospital this morning and now constituency surgery in @tushbaloo We Love Coffee
And fantastic pizza cooked in under two minutes by the team from Al Forno, Ruislip, a welcome recent opening on the High Street
Lots of Jubilee themes @Hillingdon @duckpondmarket this afternoon too
And also the cafe at Eastcote House very much in the patriotic spirit @eastcotelocalco
So many @Platinum2022 events across the constituency, even with the damp weather including @HarrowArts exhibition today
Huge crowd for the #Eastcote House Gardens Dog Show. Lots of young people patiently waiting @Hillingdon @HillingdonMayor @hheraldnews
Fantastic day at @HarrowArts! 👍 #ThankYou to everyone for making this such a great event 👏
Very proud to plant an Oak 🌳 for HM The Queen @RoyalFamily - a symbol of strength & stability.

We're having a great time with plenty more to come at our Platinum Jubilee Celebration Day, come along! We're open until 4pm for Free!
Yesterday evening I was waiting for a train at Eastcote station. I heard what sounded like a toy helicopter falling through the trees behind the platform - a male Stag Beetle! I think it had lost a fight, as another male was hovering above the platform. #TheWildSideofLondon
Great to drop by and support @TivHonTories today. A beautiful constituency and an excellent local candidate with years of service to the community. Just what we need in future MPs
The country is gearing up to celebrate Her Majesty the Queen’s #PlatinumJubilee special Bank Holiday weekend!
We are indebted to the Queen for her 70 years of unwavering dedication to the nation.

Beautiful view at Pinn Meadow, Ruislip this morning. A very popular open space with local residents and haven for wildlife.

Good news for constituents worried about their energy bills from @RishiSunak today and contributing to a long term shift away from fossil fuels
We are introducing a temporary, targeted Energy Profits Levy charged on profits of oil and gas companies at a rate of 25%.
We're also building in a new investment allowance that doubles the relief for the energy companies that invest their profits in the UK.
Still looking for something to keep the kids occupied this half term.

As we prepare for @RAMPproject visiting Calais to engage with French authorities and others working on migration, interesting to note that France is currently successfully preventing around 45% of those seeking to make the dangerous journey across the channel in small boats
Always a pleasure to join @BBCLondonNews which is such a good and reliable source of news. @BBCNews a jewel in the crown of worldwide news for honesty and integrity.
#politicslondon coming up @BBCOne @BBCLondonNews with @BellRibeiroAddy & @DSimmonds_RNP see you soon!
Thanks to the volunteers at the Harrow & Wembley miniature railway, Roxbourne Park. Another great visit and interesting to hear about the need for good quality, ideally UK sourced coal to keep this and other heritage railways running.
Thanks for the welcome and sorry to hear that part of the centre has been put out of use by the noise and vibrations from HS2 @Andrew4Pendle
Thank you @DSimmonds_RNP for visiting us @DT_WestLondon and hearing about our work in rehoming centres and to improve dog legislation 🐶
