🚫💨 With the ban on disposable vapes now in effect (1st June), a couple of weeks ago I asked the Minister in Parliament what action is being taken at our ports and airports, including East Midlands Airport, to stop counterfeit and banned vapes from entering the UK.

It’s been 9 years since Jo Cox our friend and colleague was killed.
We have her coat of arms in the chamber and this for me is a reminder of her maiden speech.
‘We are far more united and have far more in common that what divides us’
