My statement from the last few months. I am focused on my work for Edmonton. Thank you for all your support, it means a lot to me. Solidarity. 

I would like to apologise if any of my actions or words have been misinterpreted by others in any way over recent months.

Whilst I am a devoted public servant to my constituents in Edmonton, I am first and foremost a mother.

The issue concerning my son was and remains a private family matter. Nothing that my son did had impacted upon his work in my office or upon my work within the constituency.

I am concerned and disappointed by the selective reporting of the facts which has taken place by the media, such that potential legal proceedings may follow.

I would like to put this ordeal behind me so that I can focus upon my family and continue to serve my constituency to the very best of my ability. I do not have anything more to say at this point.
