Devolution is about making decisions here. Why are people in London @UKLabour HQ taking me out? Why don’t we let local members choose their candidate? The North East needs someone who’ll put region ahead of Party. Here’s my @BBCNEandCumbria #PoliticsNorth interview.

@MayorJD @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria The "Party of the People" decide that the people shouldn't decide. As per Brecht, the Party must soon select another people. "Hi, I'm looking for the famous Starmer House of Integrity?" "Sorry Mate, it was knocked down years ago"

@MayorJD @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria Hiding behind the Labour Party facade has made fools of too many so-called socialists. Stand for what you believe in or don't stand at all.

@MayorJD @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria Jamie, does your patch cover either of the freeports in the North East? I have a sneaking suspicion that Labour London wants "yes men" in control over ANY region with a free port in it. I suspect there is a corruption issue brewing behind the scenes.

@MayorJD @MahaElias1 @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria I can already see a groundswell of Labour supporters now fighting Labour HQ on the bogus anti-semitism smearing. Not only for the good of the party but for Jews as a whole in the UK. Roger Waters set the tone. @bickypeg @andrewfeinstein @AaronBastani @TomLondon6 @georgegalloway

@MayorJD @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria Hve u opposed Freeports? Opposed denationalised health ie the replacement of a single, universal NHS with 42 shrunken American Integrated Care Systems? Freeports/devolution/ICS= unelected boards of businessmen profiting from our cities/regions & public assets- not decisions by us

@MayorJD @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria Personally, I looking forward to @MayorJD interviewing Nick Griffin about his time at university. After all, what’s the difference between a racist on the left and a racist on the right?

@MayorJD @UKLabour @BBCNEandCumbria I think it's appalling that the members from the local group cannot make the decision on who stands and who doesn't, didn't Starmer once say we need clarity in local government for local members 🤔
