​Alison Hume, the Member of Parliament for Scarborough and Whitby, has said she will keep working despite an upcoming hip replacement operation. ​The Labour MP, who was first elected in 2024, said she would be holding online surgeries instead of in person meetings with constituents for a while. ​Ms Hume said: “Over the coming weeks, you’ll be seeing less of me in Westminster, asking questions and making speeches. ​“Not because I don’t love getting to my feet to represent Scarborough and Whitby and the villages, but because I will literally be off my feet. ​“As always, please don’t hesitate to get in touch if I can help you.”​The NHS website states that “a hip replacement can last for at least 15 years and can significantly improve daily life for people with hip pain and stiffness.”Alison Hume Portrait.
