Great news! All young Europeans should have the opportunity to live and work across Europe. It's been one of the biggest casualties of Brexit. Now to rejoin Erasmus too

Evil

The desertion, or worse defection, of the United States in the global war between democracy and authoritarianism has plunged Europe into crisis. Here are the four things we should do now to ensure the war for democracy isn't lost. blairmail.substack.com/p/winning-th...

What I've always said - the next leader of the Tory Party with a shot at becoming PM (which is not Kemi Badenoch) will have to admit Brexit (not just in execution, but in concept) was a mistake

Sharing the article I wrote about this a while back, considering the debate going on in Parliament today!

We mutter a lot about housing in the UK. BUT IT'S 44% MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE OECD AVERAGE. www.resolutionfoundation.org/publications...

Happy New Year from the top of Harrow hill, with its view of all the London fireworks 🎆

So foggy on the hill today you can't even see the spire from Churchfields...

Last day before Christmas break- leafleting Lowlands Road with community safety petition / Christmas shift at London Community Kitchen / mulled wine in front of the fire at The Castle. Second (full) year of first term done, one more to go. See you in 2025 - I'm off to spend Christmas by the sea 🌊

Good to meet today with some women thinking of running to be councillors in Harrow in '26. I really hope to see more women from a variety of backgrounds, personal and professional, run for office - if anyone reading this is thinking of it (in Harrow or elsewhere) feel free to DM with any questions

It is a problem!

Couldn't agree more. Erasmus - and the freedom to live and work in Europe more widely - gave me huge opportunities as a young language student, and it's heartbreaking young people today are missing out on this 💔 🇪🇺

👍👍👍

£715 million of public money (so £0.715 billion) on the non-implementation of an abhorrent policy... shameful!

Petrol-powered leaf blowers are bad for: Biodiversity 🌱 Noise pollution 🔊 Carbon emissions 🏭 I raised this at Harrow Council Cabinet last week and was pleased to hear the council is considering replacing them. Please do sign and share this petition if you are in #Harrow to keep up the pressure!

Love this - and do watch this space for something similar coming on Churchfields soon 👀 🌼

Not good.

Last night I went to an event for prospective new councillors - understandably, there were a lot of questions! I wrote this for @labourlist.bsky.social last year to try and answer some of the basic practical questions about being a councillor. Please do read & share with anyone thinking of it!

Hi everyone 👋 I've migrated here from Twitter for all the obvious reasons. Planning to use this to share updates on my work as a councillor as well as articles I've written. Also sometimes like to share photos of my beautiful ward of Harrow-on-the-Hill (and my cat)
