Absolutely delighted that we Kim McGuinness as our new North East Mayor. Definitely the best candidate on the ballot paper. Congrats and now the work starts in earnest

Absolutely beautiful day in Gateshead.

I am resigning from the Tory party and crossing the floor. Only Labour wants to restore our NHS | Dan Poulter MP | The Guardian theguardian.com/politics/comme…

On the day that the Spectator magazine is criticised for a grim and deeply misogynistic article, a supposed left-wing politician in the north lauds a profile of him in that very magazine as cross-party support for him. You couldn’t make it up.

Desperate and depressing

The country needs change.

Today is the last day you can register to vote in the local elections and help to make it happen 👇

Dear #Saltwell resident

This is a quick reminder that our local surgery is on tonight at Kelvin Grove school. We hold them on the second Wednesday of each month, and are the only Saltwell councillors to hold surgeries.

Feel free to drop in from 6pm

Fantastic to have you in Saltwell, to talk to local people about their issues. You'll be an excellent Police and Crime Commissioner for our area.

Britain has had 14 years of chaos under the Tories.

Watch Tony Robinson in our latest party election broadcast on Labour’s plan for Britain’s future.

Vote to end the chaos and decline.

Vote to power up Britain.

Vote to get Britain's future back.

Vote Labour on Thursday 2 May.

Many thanks to Gateshead College for taking time to welcome Labour Councillors to their Baltic campus last week, and for showing us around and briefing us on their work.
Was very impressive, and great to speak to some of the learners.

The Tyne Bridge will be closed from 8pm to 6am on Wed 27th and Thurs 28th this week as preparations are made for the restoration work starting the following week. A further over night closure will be needed on Wednesday 3rd April. #tynebridge tynebridge.org/news/people-ad…

Great to see Labour’s next Police and Crime Commissioner out, knocking on the doors of Saltwell and speaking to local people.

Very positive responses yesterday, and many thanks to Susan Dungworth for joining us.

Beyond proud to join my friend Kim McGuinness yesterday as she launched her campaign to be the first North East Mayor.

The North East deserves change.

A vote for Kim on 2 May is a vote for the future the North East deserves. 🌹👇🏻

Name the date 🐔

Delighted to see this development cracking on in Dunston in Gateshead Council Cannot wait to see local people moving into their new homes.

Thanks for your part in organising

Wales has achieved so much. And Labour will always be proud of what we are and what Wales stands for.

Happy St David’s Day. Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus.

This intervention by Radek Sikorski 🇵🇱 in the 🇺🇳 Security Council today will be a classic. Not much left of 🇷🇺 after that.
