Thank you for your support!

Visiting Midlands Arts Centre (MAC) was inspiring. Creativity, arts and culture mean so much to our community.

Working with the arts community we can do so much more, for so many more.

Thank you for your support, Tan.

Tomorrow, we can vote for a fresh start.

Carl is an absolute local legend.

Like him, I care about our region; I want the best for our region, and I want our region to succeed.

thank you for your endorsement, Carl. I'm ready to deliver for the West Midlands.

This is my first time standing as a candidate.

I've been humbled that, for some of you, it might be your first time ever voting Labour.

Our region deserves a fresh start. I won't let you down.

I am not a politician, I am a business person. I have worked with businesses to deliver investment and jobs for our region.

I know the jobs we need and how to deliver them.

I will be a Labour Mayor for everyone - from Chelmsley Wood to Coventry, from the Black Country to Birmingham, from urban to rural, and everywhere in between.

Here are my five pledges to make sure we get the fresh start we need in the West Midlands🧵:

It's hard to believe it's only two days till polling day.

I have never been a politician before, but I am not prepared to sit on the sidelines anymore, whilst the region I love, my home, is left behind.

This Thursday, we can start to get our future back.

Thank you for your support, Shabana!

Great to join Richard Parker for West Mids Mayor 🌹 at Guru Nanak Gurdwara Smethwick to see first hand the sikh concept of Langar- free kitchen.

He also saw how faith communities are stepping in to deliver key public health and early years initiatives.

I have a plan for the West Midlands and a record of bringing in investment.

Our region has been left behind for too long. We need a fresh start.

The Mayor should support businesses of all sizes to grow, invest and create jobs in our region.

Thank you for your support, Bob. I won't let you down.

Your community, your voice, your vote, matters.

On Thursday, you can vote for a fresh start for our region.

I promise, I won’t let you down.

Keir is absolutely spot on.

If you spend your lifetime working hard and contributing to society, you deserve a comfortable, secure retirement.

Our region has so much to offer.

Small businesses, like Pigeon's Parlour, are hidden gems within our region, and it's time we work to support them and ensure they're able to thrive.

Thank you for the warm welcome, Deb. I look forward to bringing my Mum for a visit!

Bella is lending me her vote on May 2nd because she knows it's a two horse race between Labour and Conservative.
Only Labour has a plan to give the West Midlands a fresh start.

I’m the son of a docker and a school secretary. Someone who left school at 16.

I’ve worked in business all my life, but what I’m doing now is the most important thing I've done in my life .

In the West Midlands, 66,000 children in poverty don’t qualify for a free school meal. As Mayor, I want to fix that.

And with Zarah Sultana MP I’ll campaign for universal free school meals for our children.
