Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I hope you find the information provided useful and informative.

Since being elected as your MP in 1990 I have strived to ensure that the people of Bradford have received the highest possible level of representation and that Bradford receives the resources it needs to deliver the services so vital to all in the local community.

This website will, I hope, improve the communication between the people in the constituency and my office and allow me to ensure that the community's views are listened to by the authorities.

Please make use of the information available on this site and use it to contact my office if you have any comments to make or need any assistance.
