Polls have now closed in the local elections. We want to say a huge thanks to everyone who voted for us… some of you had never voted Labour before! Also, a massive thank you to everyone that helped in our campaign to bring about real change in Driffield & Rural. Solidarity.

All three Driffield Labour Candidates have signed up to the @UKDivest pledge: “If elected, we will do all we can to ensure the council pension fund ends investment in fossil fuels within the next five years and invests in a just transition to a zero carbon economy.”

This is the Tory MP for East Yorkshire (a coastal constituency), Sir Greg Knight. He voted to have Raw, Untreated Sewerage & Effluence Dumped into Britain's Rivers and Waterways. #TorySewageParty

Er - this is a very big story. A senior pollster has said that YouGov suppressed polling that was favourable for Labour during the 2017 election - after a senior Tory politician rang them and left them fearing for their jobs.

Yes, Jake Daniels. You are and you will be. skysports.com/football/news/…
“I am hoping that by coming out, I can be a role model, to help others come out if they want to. I am only 17 but I am clear that this is what I want to do and if, by me coming out, other people look at me and feel maybe they can do it as well, that would be brilliant.”

Why do Johnson, Sunak, Gove, Patel, etc need to raise NI £12bn to supposedly fund the NHS when they promised a £350m weekly Brexit bonus - £18.2bn - to do that? Because they lied about that too.

I’ve submitted a formal complaint to @East_Riding about Cllr Paul Nickerson’s revolting behaviour. You can too: eastriding.gov.uk/council/co…
As you know, a car exploded outside a hospital in Liverpool on the 14th, Remembrance Sunday, in a suspected terrorist incident. On the 15th Mr Nickerson tweeted a picture of the car ablaze, having photoshopped in a prominent Labour politician holding a poppy wreath. This is a revolting statement. Mr Nickerson has effectively accused this unrelated politician of sympathising with terrorism, making a punchline out of a genuine threat to innocent lives, while dragging an emblem of our Remembrance through the mud. In so doing, Mr Nickerson has breached articles 1 and 5 of ERYC’s Code of Conduct: he has failed to treat others with respect and he has brought his office into disrepute.

Absolutely disgusting and shameful tweet from Conservative councillor @CouncillorPaul_. Using the terrorist attack in Liverpool to have a pop at Corbyn is beyond vile. Resign.
