Pleasure to join @CamdenLabour with another big @redbridgelabour contingent in Holborn and St.Pancras in support of @Sagal_AW!! She’s local, she talented and she’s spent years working with, and supporting, her neighbours.

While we’ve completed a lot of work on flood alleviation the risk of flash flooding is real. After many weeks of hot weather the ground is rock hard and water will run off. Some guidance ⬇️
⚠️Yellow Weather Warning issued for thunderstorms⚠️ After weeks of hot, dry weather, forecasted heavy thunderstorms could lead to flash flooding & surface water flooding. Check our flood awareness advice 👇 orlo.uk/WOBmV

Huge thanks to my friend @NatalieFleetMP for joining my local CLP fundraiser last week – your message about the work this Labour Government is doing to tackle violence against women and girls was incredibly powerful. 🫶

Wishing everyone a Happy World Book Day - more important today than ever!
This #WorldBookDay, let’s remember how books can empower and open doors. But reading rates among boys and young men are falling, deepening educational gaps. 📚 Proud to work with Boys’ Impact, Go All In and the Labour Group for Men and Boys to shine a light on this issue. 💪

For 53 yrs the Freedom Pass has been part of London life, supporting older & disabled Londoners who’ve paid in all their lives. In Redbridge, Labour is clear: no cuts, no restrictions, no erosion of hard-earned rights. This lovely couple told me how vital it is to their lives ❤️

Yesterday, I was honoured to join with local leaders and faith communities from across Redbridge to commemorate Holocaust Memorial Day in Valentines Park in Ilford. Our community came together to remember six million murdered Jews, other victims of Nazi atrocities and those who have lost their lives in subsequent genocides. We will remember them. 🙏

Quite clear that urgent action is needed to increase vaccination rates in the UK. The @CommonsHealth committee has called for a return of national targets, accelerated access to vaccines locally & a new national strategy.
UKHSA responds to the confirmation from @WHO that the UK has lost its measles elimination status. Read more from WHO here: who.int/europe/news-room/eve…

Grateful to join @RedbridgeLive #HolocaustMemorialDay commemoration in Ilford earlier today with very moving readings by @KamRai7 and religious leaders and schools. Also glad to have seen @VisionRCL's exhibition of works at Valentines Mansion by a local survivor like this one.

Thank you to all Labour Councillors who have been out this weekend and in fact, most days supporting their communities. Whatever else is going on we know they'll continue to do so without fanfare or expectations other than doing all they can for their residents. Thank you 🌹

This decision should be a green light for growth, unlocking the great national opportunity that cross-Channel rail represents. With potential for hundreds of skilled jobs at Temple Mills, I welcome Eurostar and Virgin’s commitments and will keep pushing this vital economic agenda. 🚆👇theguardian.com/business/202…
