Luke Murphy MP
First ever Labour MP for Basingstoke 🌹
- Lovely to catch up with residents in Norden last week at my Coffee and Chat ☕️ Thank you to Citizen's Advice Basingstoke for giving free 1-1 advice on the cost-of-living and energy bills If you’d like to join me at a future coffee afternoon, you can sign up here: www.eventbrite.com/cc/coffee-an...
- Great to meet Zara, who is campaigning for better representation of bald people in media, fashion and public life ✨ Around 70% of bald women feel misrepresented in the media, and children with visible differences face higher risks of bullying. Representation matters.
- I shared the thoughts and experiences of Basingstoke parents, students and teachers on SEND with the Secretary of State for Education. I was really pleased to hear that she is taking on board our recommendations, and that local families and professionals will help shape the changes ahead.
- Really proud to be a part of the scheme Chris and Peter set up the scheme following the Centre for Social Justice’s report "The Lost Boys" detailing the crisis of identity, belonging, and aspiration among young boys and men in our country Read about the scheme👇️ buff.ly/uEqQKs9
- Was quoted in this article. Retailers should not be incentivising people to get into debt who are not able to afford it. Stricter Gov rules in July 2026 for mandatory affordability checks are much needed. inews.co.uk/news/rise-bu...
- January 2026 has been one of the busiest months yet for me and my team. We’ve supported residents on everything from crisis cases through to ongoing neighbourhood issues. If you need help, you can contact me or book an appointment here: www.lukemurphy.org.uk/contact/
