Hurrah!!
And I see @dvbishop.com has a new one coming! Great News. My holiday in Italy this year just would not be the same without Aldo
Even though the Further From Festival is over, we're not slowing down! On Wednesday, at 2pm, we'll be joined by the wonderful @shonamaclean.bsky.social for an afternoon discussing her new book The Cromarty Library Circle! Tickets are still available in the shop or at tinyurl.com/FFTMCSGMaclean
I am absolutely sure I will
And I ordered a copy of this yesterday. Delighted to find a new one out
Just beyond parody at this point
You can read books by Black Authors in February, March, April, May, June…well you get my point. We’re not a one month special assignment that you can tick off your chart 😒
🧱 The long road to recovery clearly involves helping Lyle to build his birthday Lego Minecraft… Just look at the concentration on our faces! 👀
Thanks Aunty @lyncbrown.bsky.social x
Helen’s son Michael was 1 when he was diagnosed with high risk neuroblastoma.
The lack of financial support for parents who suddenly have to drop everything to be at their child’s bedside for cancer treatment needs fixing.
I am pleased that, after 21 years of campaigning, this Labour Government is rolling up its sleeves and investing to deliver the biggest transformation to travel in the North in a generation.
Today the Government are delivering real, lasting change for millions of people through Northern Powerhouse Rail.
Reopening the Leamside Line, connecting the Metro to Washington, and ensuring faster, more frequent services across our region shows the difference a Labour Government makes.
Reform UK, which says it represents “change” from Conservative failures, has so far accepted defections from:
- A disgraced Tory minister sacked for tax-dodging
- Disgraced Tory vice chairman suspended for racism
- Disgraced former minister suspended for abandoning constituents for a reality TV gig
Thank you to everyone for your support this year, here’s a few of my 2025 highlights.
I’m looking forward to 2026 and another year serving West Ham and Beckton.
Has he thought this one through?
“Reform is not sweeping country even if it’s still, just, out in front as scandals, from Farage as a man refusing to apologise to those claiming he was a racist bully as a boy, to the poison and incompetence of too many of its councillors, candidates and MPs take their toll”. x.com/reformexpose...
Great to join the West Ham United Foundation earlier this month for their gala dinner at the Mansion House, to celebrate and support their community and youth work at The Foundry in Beckton. ⚒️
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄
Here's a video to recap this year!
‼️The Labour Government have conducted a “Fair Funding” Review - putting things like deprivation and ability to raise money from council tax back in the Central Government Grant Formula for councils.
For Tameside that’s a 23% increase or £63.5m. That’s more money for our local public services. 💷
Huge thanks to all our postal workers! 📮
I visited Putney Postal Sorting Station to see the hard work our posties do, lifting parcels, sorting letters, and keeping every street covered. I even had a go at sorting myself!
Thank you to Royal Mail and @cwunews.bsky.social

The last full week before Christmas. I started it with a visit to a very busy Beckton sorting office to meet our local posties and say thanks for all their hard work this year and over Christmas. 📮
(3/3) Massive thanks to Industry Minister, @chrismcdonaldmp.bsky.social, North East Mayor @kimmcguinness.bsky.social and Leader of Sunderland City Council Michael Mordey for their attendance and continued support.
(2/3) We heard from Massimiliano Messina, Nissan's Chairperson for the AMIEO Region that this investment in our local area will continue to provide jobs for my constituents and the broader North East.
(1/3) It was fantastic to hear all about Nissan's commitment to Sunderland and our workforce at the launch of the manufacturing of the third generation LEAF today.
I recently met apprentices and trainees from the Thames Skills Academy at a Port of London Authority Event.
It was great to meet people working and training on the River in East London including on Uber Boats and the Woolwich Ferry.
Again these people aren't patriots.
They hate our country and are allied to others who hate it too.
Nothing will ever be achieved by seeking to appease them
🎄They don’t have to do it but doesn’t Denton look better for their fantastic Festive efforts? ✨
Thank you to Vault 2 Bar & Bistro / Lorenzo Italian. to the Red Lion and to Local Lounge for your amazing decorations.
Denton’s never looked so Christmassy and that’s down to you.🎅🏻

Reform UK councillor slapped with a £40,000 fine for hiring an illegal worker. 🤔
So much for "taking back control", apparently the rule is: deport them… but only after we’ve squeezed some cheap labour out of them.
A masterclass in hypocrisy!
