Due to unexpected personal circumstances, I am not able to be present in Parliament to vote on the Second Reading of the Assisted Dying Bill.

I am grateful to all those residents who have shared their views on this Bill with me and the many conversations I have had with local people about the consequences and impact of this Bill.

Last year, I wasn’t able to secure a pair – a fellow Member of Parliament who would be voting yes but would not vote so as not to lose my no vote – and I missed my father in law’s death. That experience gave me a whole new understanding of the life and death nature of this Bill.

If I had been present, I would have voted no.

I have made my views as clear and consistently as I could. This is a dangerous Bill and that has become more and more evident as the debate has gone on.

Today, I have been paired with a colleague who would have voted yes but also isn’t able to be in Parliament either. As such, as neither of us will be voting but would have voted in opposing lobbies (me against, him for) the numbers will be unaffected by our inability to be present today.

🚆 NEW RAIL LINK BETWEEN STOKE AND MANCHESTER AIRPORT ANNOUNCED

Last week, I presented my petition in Parliament, on behalf of hundreds of people in Newcastle-under-Lyme, calling for a direct train to Manchester Airport.

Today, West Midlands Trains has confirmed that this new direct service will begin running from May 2027

Today’s announcement is a brilliant step forward for the connectivity of our area, for families heading off on their holidays, and for the offer we present internationally.

Newcastle-under-Lyme and North Staffordshire have a brilliant offer for investors and global businesses, but that offer is only as strong as the ability to get here.

This is great news for people and businesses across Newcastle-under-Lyme, and I was delighted to be at Manchester Airport yesterday alongside representatives from the rail operators and the airport to mark the announcement.

Indeed, the journey there and the struggle for parking highlighted just what a major, urgently needed improvement this will be for those of us who live, learn and work in Newcastle-under-Lyme!

Together with my colleague Gareth Snell MP’s petition of residents in Stoke-on-Trent Central, almost 1,000 people across North Staffordshire made their voices heard to call for this new line.

🎂🎉 Happy 20th Anniversary to Lifeworks North Staffs!

When I visited Louise, Aimee, and the team at Lifeworks, their passion and dedication was clear. Making such a real difference to people across North Staffordshire – supporting autistic people and those with ADHD to build confidence and lead more independent lives.

Two decades is no mean feat, and we’re fortunate to have fantastic organisations like Lifeworks based here in Newcastle-under-Lyme.

Many congratulations to the whole team, and all those who have contributed to Lifeworks’ success over the years, on reaching this remarkable anniversary.

I welcome the Secretary of State's decision to pause and reflect on the local government reorganisation proposals affecting Staffordshire.

This is a welcome step and I’m glad we have been listened to.

STATEMENT: LOCAL GOVERNMENT REORGANISATION

I welcome the decision to pause and review the proposed local government reorganisation by the Secretary of State today.

Back in July, on the floor of the House of Commons, I very clearly – and forcefully – said that it wasn’t too late to pause and think again. Today the new Secretary of State has done exactly that.

At every stage of the many, many discussions on devolving power and authority to local communities, I have been clear about the overwhelming view of people in Newcastle-under-Lyme and the fact - the simple fact - that we must do things with people, not to them.

As our local Member of Parliament, I will continue speaking up – and fighting – for our community, for our interests and for the powers that will allow us to tackle the issues and challenges that local people want and need addressed.

But for today, I welcome the fact we have been listened to. That’s what real and meaningful leadership does – it respects, listens and engages.

I shall, as you’d expect, forcefully fight our corner as this pause and review takes place.

I will be in Parliament for the statement from the Secretary of State at 15:30 and I shall be standing up for the views and concerns of my constituents, as I did when the plans for LGR were announced back in the summer (https://www.adamjogee.com/post/local-government-reorganisation-announcement-unacceptable)

🚌 Take My Local Bus Routes Survey
🔗 https://www.adamjogee.com/bus-routes

I hear from people all the time about their concerns with the state of public transport across Newcastle-under-Lyme - especially in our more rural areas and from people who can’t and don’t drive for whatever reason.

Over the Summer Recess, I met with our local bus companies and shared concerns put to me and had a chance to talk through what could be done better.

Now, I want you to have your say.

Please share your thoughts on the areas that need better bus connections, which bus routes you think we need to improve and how you think we can get a better deal for bus passengers.

“No child, no parent, no carer, nobody – in Newcastle-under-Lyme or anywhere else in England – should be at risk of injury, serious injury or indeed death, when on the journey to school.”

I introduced my Road Safety Plans Bill to Parliament this week, to require all local authorities – like Staffordshire County Council – to prepare and publish a specific road safety plan for every school in their area, instead of relying on the current one-size-fits-all approach.

Incidents like we saw last year outside Meadows Primary School, in Madeley, where a parent was hospitalised after being struck whilst crossing the road with their child, highlight exactly why the law must change.

01/09/2026

I'll be taking my Road Safety Plans Bill to Parliament later today.

The Bill would require every local authority to step up and provide a tailored road safety plan for every school in their area.

No parent, child, teacher or resident should feel unsafe on the school run.
