Biography

Clive Jones has predominantly engaged through debate speeches, with a particular focus on cancer across multiple types—lung, breast, brain, and lobular cancers—alongside broader cancer plan implementation and NHS workforce challenges. He has consistently advocated for early diagnosis initiatives, ringfenced funding for screening programmes, and legislative accountability through his National Cancer Strategy Bill. Jones has also raised learning disability and autism support, notably regarding SEND reform oversight and multi-academy trust accountability.

  • …Government more money to tackle the costs of living, strengthen the armed forces, and invest in our NHS workforce and hospitals.
