Lee Dillon MP has introduced the Road Traffic (Horse and Rider Safety) Bill, pushing for stronger protections for horses and riders on UK roads.

Horseracing is at the heart of life in Newbury. but a new tax proposal could threaten jobs, businesses, and a cherished part of our culture. I’m backing the #AxeTheRacingTax campaign to protect our sport and economy.

The Government’s proposal to harmonise remote gambling tax rates could threaten the future of British horseracing. As MP for a constituency with a proud racing heritage, I believe we must protect the unique role horseracing plays in rural communities and ensure reforms are fair.

I was honoured to support the Lambourn-to-Windsor Road Safety Awareness Ride and have now submitted a motion in Parliament calling for greater protection for horses and riders.

I recently visited the Jockey Club Estate in Lambourn, meeting with trainers to discuss the challenges facing the racing industry.
