Just heartbreaking listening to discussions on security of local surgeries. 1000s of councillors across the country are preparing for surgeries tomorrow - serving the community. Elected representatives must be able to carry out duties without fear. He was doing his job.

New reports out today that homelessness is increasing - we need to support young people at risk. Was good to speak to @centrepointuk today about ending youth homelessness and building more homes that work for young people. Thank you for showing me round 🏡

History was made when Westminster council went Labour for the first time ever, and we're working hard to make history again by getting @RNBlake elected as the first Labour MP for Cities of London & Westminster. Good to see so much local support here on the #LabourDoorstep !🌹

October 4 1936 - East End came together, stood up against racism and fascism and said ‘they shall not pass’. This is an inspiration to our Labour values today - fairness, community, justice and solidarity 🌹

Locally we are shocked the secretary of state went against the government’s own planning inspector’s recommendation. Timing meant developer would have been able to pay much lower infrastructure costs than if decision taken later. ⁦ @MayorJohnBiggs
