Great to be out in Gorrell Ward knocking with the Canterbury Labour team for our fantastic by-election candidate Val Kenny. One of the other great things about being out campaigning is visiting brilliant independent cafes like Whitstable’s Thirst Love Cafe (and their Snickers Milkshake!)

Incredibly sad at this morning’s news at the passing of Wayne Mallard - someone I’m lucky enough to have called a friend for more than two decades. He was a dedicated Labour Councillor in Snodland, someone who truly made a difference and was also one of the nicest people you could know. 1/2
