Happy Christmas from Sarah Teather

December 22, 2011 12:00 PM

"I would like to wish everybody a very merry Christmas. I know that many people will have had very a busy year and it's always great to be able to take some time to relax over the festive period.

For me personally Christmas is a religious festival, but regardless of whether you celebrate it in that way or not Christmas is an occasion for spending time with your family and friends and recharging your batteries.

But while most of us are celebrating, for some people Christmas is a time of heightened loneliness. I would urge people to look in on elderly neighbours and those who may be spending the holiday season on their own. Christmas is a period for reaching out and renewing or making new connections with our friends and our neighbours. There is something in the spirit of the generosity of Christmas which should touch everybody's lives whether you are a believer or not.

I wish you all a peaceful, healthy and joyous Christmas and very happy New Year."

    If you are a resident of the Brent Central constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
