The MP for Ely and East Cambridgeshire has marked her hundredth day in office by pledging to "make a lasting difference".

Among a number of pledged made during the general election campaign, Charlotte Cane has placed the NHS, environmental protection and the cost of living crisis at the top of her list. 

The Liberal Democrat MP took the seat on July 4 with 17,127 votes and a majority of 495. 

Ms Cane said that one of the most important aspects of her first 100 days in office has been the chance to assist residents.

Her office has taken on 372 cases across the constituency so far on issues ranging from healthcare to the environment. 

Reflecting on her time in office, she said: “My first 100 days as MP have been about listening, learning, and taking action on the issues that matter most to Ely and East Cambridgeshire.

"It’s clear that our community faces serious challenges, whether it’s the strain on local healthcare, environmental concerns, or the rising cost of living.

“The work on tackling the NHS recruitment crisis and protecting our local environment is just beginning, and there are no quick fixes after years of failure under previous governments.

"But I’m determined to keep pressing for solutions that will make a lasting difference for my constituents."

In addition to leading calls for fairer GP funding for Cambridgeshire, Ms Cane presented the Climate and Nature Bill petition in Downing street alongside fellow Liberal Democrat MPs. 

She also voted against the government's plans to scrap Winter Fuel Payments and voted against sewage dumping during a debate on the King's Speech. 

She added: “Much remains to be done, but I’m committed to continuing the fight for the people of Ely and East Cambridgeshire.

"I’ll keep pushing for change and working to ensure that the voices of our community are heard in Parliament—not just during election season, but every single day.”
