SE20 and Penge named as the “the most desirable postcode south of the river” and London’s “best kept secret”! Great recognition for our vibrant, diverse and thriving community - and nice to see local businesses and landmarks referenced too!

Of all the crises the Tories left, the state of the NHS was the most urgent to fix. Our Government is working hard and delivering results - and delivering early: ✅ 2 million more appointments ✅ Evening and weekend tests and scans ✅ Waiting lists down 4 months in a row

Nice touch from Labour volunteers today. Knocked on my door offering the opportunity to feedback on local issues to MP @liamconlon.bsky.social . A nice touch, just how it should be. Never heard a peep from the last Tory, apart from when HE wanted something.

It was an honour to re-open the Beckenham Library today with the Mayor of Bromley and my friend the Baroness of Beckenham, Floella Benjamin. Our refurbished library will be invaluable in promoting education and literacy, and building community. Delighted to see it reopen! 📚

CAMPAIGN WIN: Together we’ve forced Bromley Conservatives to U-turn on their plans to charge Blue Badge holders! This is the right decision. But it’s been a waste of time, a waste money, and caused distress to vulnerable residents Story in @thesun.co.uk ⬇️ www.thesun.co.uk/motors/33059...

I’m continuing to call on Bromley Conservatives to cancel their cruel plans to charge disabled Blue Badge holders They’d be the first and only London Council to do so. It’s time they listened to local residents who are overwhelmingly opposed 👇 www.mylondon.news/news/south-l...

It's unacceptable that disabled people in #Bromley are being threatened with parking charges, even if they have already paid a for a Blue Badge. We support local MP @LiamConlon2 who is speaking out against this, and stand with local campaign groups.

Bromley Council want to introduce parking charges for disabled Blue Badge holders. It will isolate some of our most vulnerable residents. My letter to the Conservative Leader of Bromley Council asking him to stop these callous and ill-thought through plans ⬇️

14 years of Tory decline have left our roads in a disgraceful state Drivers are left to pay the price in repairs & car insurance premiums Our Government is taking action to fix our roads with record investment - inc £1.5m additional funding for local roads in Bromley this year!

This week I asked my first PMQ to recognise International Day of Persons with Disabilities, and ask the Prime Minister to back my campaign to tackle the sharp rise in Blue Badge theft. As the PM says, it’s a crime with a real human impact on some of the most vulnerable in society.

New data today shows Blue Badge theft has more than quadrupled in the past decade, with thousands of disabled people being targeted every year. Today I’ve launched a campaign to tackle it, and it was great to discuss it with Ed Balls & Susanna Reid on @goodmorningbritain.bsky.social this morning…
