Greg Hands MP hosted his latest Crime Summit in Fulham.
Greg reported to Fulham and Chelsea residents that Police officers are at record numbers nationwide and in London, where we have reached 36,418 officers, and crime is down 50% since 2010.
Last night I hosted my latest Crime Summit at St Dionis, Fulham. I regularly host these public crime meetings to give residents the opportunity to raise concerns and questions about crime in the local community directly with the Metropolitan Police and local elected representatives. There was a fantastic turn out, with many residents from across Fulham and Chelsea attending.
Greg Hands MP appointed Minister of State for Trade and Minister for London.
To kick off Greg’s return as Trade Minister, it was fantastic that on 14 November, the UK signed the 7th and biggest UK-US Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Florida to boost trade and investment.
Since Monday I am back behind the desk at the Department for Business and Trade as Minister of State for Trade, in addition to being appointed Minister for London by the Prime Minister. I am disappointed to have left the job of Chairman of the Conservatives Party. However, I was able to choose to go back to Trade Minister, which is a job I also love.
This week I attended the House of Lords to witness the King's Speech. I have also planted a Remembrance stake for the Chelsea & Fulham constituency in Parliament's Constituency Garden of Remembrance.
Greg Hands has welcomed the legislation brought forward at the King’s Speech as part of the Conservative Government’s commitment to deliver the long-term decisions for a brighter future.
