Member of Parliament for North East Cambridgeshire
"Here you can find my latest news and campaigns. I'm here to help, so please do get in touch."
A strong local champion with a national voice
Steve Barclay has been the MP for North East Cambridgeshire since 2010, working as a strong voice both locally and nationally. This has helped change Fenland from being the Forgotten Fens of the past and delivered over £100 million in recent investment.
His key priorities are continuing to make it easier to access NHS services locally, upgrading infrastructure, delivering better local schools and skills, providing improved sports and arts facilities, protecting our rural landscape and backing local farmers.
Wisbech Incinerator
I am strongly opposed to the Wisbech incinerator and remain committed to campaigning against this threat.
I am asking all councillors to sign a pledge to the people of Fenland that they will not vote for or support in any way the use of the Wisbech Incinerator.
If Cambridgeshire County Council, Fenland District Council and other local authorities refuse to send waste to the Wisbech incinerator. This will undermine the business case for investment funding for construction of the incinerator.
Family Farm Tax
Labour are choosing to put their party interest above the country, forcing family farms to be sold off to pay inheritance tax bills which will not affordable without land sales.
The beneficiaries of Labour's policy will be private equity firms, and other companies who will buy the land for solar, carbon offsets and other environmental schemes. As s a result we will lose generations of farm knowledge, reduce the amount of land used for farm production, and in particular for tenant farmers who cannot sell land as they don't own the land, risk losing entire farm businesses.
