Supporting assisted dying reform as a new MP - Peter Bedford MP, Mid Leicestershire

Peter Bedford is the new Conservative MP for the constituency of Mid Leicestershire. From realising he wanted to be a member of Parliament at 15, Peter talks about being the first in his family to go to university, his newfound love of cruising (like, on a ship) and recounts one memorable time being fired at by a man with an air rifle whilst campaigning. As a brand new MP, Peter says the 2024 election was ‘tough’ and he was ‘frustrated with the campaign’. Now in Parliament, he talks about hot-desking with colleagues whilst waiting for an office in Westminster, and how he will be focused on social mobility in politics, and supporting reform to assisted dying laws in the UK. #ukpolitics #politics #conservative #assisteddying Parliament Webpage: https://members.parliament.uk/member/5330/contact Peter's website: https://www.peterbedford.uk/ X: https://x.com/PeterABedford IG/Threads: https://www.instagram.com/peterbedfordmp/ Meet The MPs is a series that brings politicians to the public, with in-depth profile interviews with MPs from across the House of Commons, as well as political commentary and analysis of the latest key events happening on the green benches. #meetthemps MeetTheMPs is produced by London Broadcast.
