Great team out on the doors in Newington yesterday speaking to people on Fleming Road and Forsyth Gardens #SE17 about local issues and casework we will be following up on.
We're lucky having great primary schools in Newington including Crampton #SE17 which is in the top 1% nationally. Yesterday we met teachers & governors to discuss what extra support they need to continue delivering outstanding education for children with a focus on SEND provision
Today we held our @lb_southwark cabinet in the beautifully restored Walworth Town Hall.
We covered a lot of important business
And launched 2 publications: @mcash Streets for People delivery plan and our Corporate Parenting annual report, which I was v proud to introduce...
Truly delighted to see my friend and former Chief Executive Eleanor Kelly awarded a much deserved CBE in tonight’s New Year’s honours. Recognition of a life working for local government, serving Southwark, London and many more beyond during the pandemic.

12 hours into campaigning for a Labour Government, powered by 🍌and 🍫 and still smiling. Every step, every door is worth it if it stops us being governed by the dregs of this Conservative Party. Tomorrow is a new dawn ☀️
