Eid Mubarak, from all of us at the Labour Party.

Exciting news for constituents in #Radford & #Wollaton - these brand new pink line electric Nottingham City Transport will be out on the 30 route VERY soon (and other routes too). Brilliant to see the investment in clean, green transport at Trent Bridge Garage. Helping Nottingham be #CN2028

New green council homes are what our region needs & @NG_Labour have committed to building 1000 new affordable & social rented homes.

With Claire as mayor, a decent place to live or the dream of owning your own home here in the East Mids is achievable for so many more people.

It was great to show Ed Miliband around Amber Valley BC’s new council homes in Kirk Langley. The Labour council’s commitment to providing green homes will save tenants money and reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.

If you elect me on May 2nd, these homes are just the beginning.

Strong words from @CllrGC & Michael Payne for Gedling🌹 on the 'begging bowl culture' & lack of skills investment from the government in their flagging Levelling Up agenda.

Excellent from Nadia Whittome MP in LeftLion Magazine Nottingham -we need to keep up the campaign on council finances. Selling council assets to pay for social care of our residents isn’t a sustainable solution. Sunak & Gove don’t get it but councils need a better settlement for the future.

Happy Easter to Christians celebrating in the UK and around the world!

'At this time of renewed hope I want to wish #Nottingham a very happy and restful Easter.' David Mellen

Happy Holi to all those celebrating in Nottingham, from #NottinghamLabour

On behalf of the whole Labour Party, I want to send my very best wishes to Her Royal Highness at this distressing time.

Our thoughts are with the whole Royal Family as they come to terms with the news and as they support The Princess of Wales through her treatment and recovery.

Ben ‘3 jobs’ Bradley and his Tory colleagues have failed to secure desperately needed investment in our region’s transport time and again. Why on earth would he be any better as our East Midlands Mayor? On 2nd May I’ll be voting Claire Ward for East Midlands Mayor #VoteLabour

Yesterday the Devolved East Midlands Combined County Authority launched, bringing an extra £4 billion to the region.

#Labour 's Claire Ward for East Midlands Mayor is the candidate to vote for to ensure good paying jobs, more affordable homes and better public transport.

This should be required viewing for anyone standing for Parliament this year. Worth 29 minutes of your time. MPs need to understand the reality of what happens in local councils. Demand up, costs up, income down. It’s a broken system. Needs a fresh start. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

Serious questions today for Caroline Henry at the Police & Crime Commissioner’s Panel considering the recent move by HMIC to put @NottsPolice into Enhanced Measures.

'This is a rare opportunity to transform a polluted, outdated roundabout. so that more consideration, priority and space is given to pedestrians and cyclists, as well as improving the junction for vehicles.' Angela Kandola BEM

Out in the Old Market Square with Cllr Matt Shannon enjoying the St Patrick’s Day parade. Was fantastic to see the Square so busy with people celebrating Irish heritage.

Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona duit!☘️

Happy St Patrick's Day from everyone in Nottingham! A huge thanks to the organising committee, the event at Market Square was great as always.

Now, off to Raglan Road Irish Bar!
