Dr Hudson specifically championed his constituents at the Pot Place Garden Centre in Plumpton who have delivered essential supplies including ambulances, blood bikes, and medical equipment to Ukraine; as well as Steve Hodgson providing vital aid to Ukraine. 

Replying to Dr Hudson, prime minister, Rishi Sunak said:  "I join my hon. Friend in thanking people up and down the country, including the fantastic work of his constituents in supporting the Ukrainian community in the face of Putin's illegal invasion."

Speaking afterwards, Dr Neil Hudson MP said: "It is so vital we keep our eyes firmly focused on Ukraine.

"I therefore felt it important at PMQs to again raise the plight of our beleaguered allies in a show of solidarity with free liberal democracies around the world.

"I again pay tribute to the Pot Place team, Steve Hodgson and people across the nation who are doing so much to bolster Ukraine."
