Things we love to see Part 2! This is #Garboldisham - a village in the very south of South West #Norfolk - looking beautifully red! @rurallabouruk

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

I was delighted to speak to Chris Goreham on @BBCNorfolk this morning about the general election - outlining how #Norfolk and the country as a whole is desperate for a change from this Conservative government and how Labour is campaign ready with excellent candidates & policies

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

Back to the SW #Norfolk campaign this afternoon! Visited the lovely village of Great Cressingham & lunch at @oldewindmillinn - thoroughly recommend! Trip to Didlington on way home for more plants! If you can support our campaign to #ToppleTruss donate via https://t.co/eriyLa70bF

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

The writing was on the wall for this ill-conceived mural project in #Dereham months ago - well done @AtterwillR & @horatioharry for raising concerns. I hope residents & elected members can now work together to redirect this money to something useful https://t.co/bApT2EZi30

A furious political row has broken out, after Duncan Baker, the North Norfolk MP, blamed the county council for the impact of this��week’s floods. https://t.co/qKWUwCk5dX 👇 Full story

Out speaking with residents this morning on Florence Barclay Close with Cllr Terry Land - picking up casework and listening to people’s opinions on a number of issues.

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

At @BreckCouncil Full Council meeting today, @BrecklandLabour Cllrs are highlighting the appalling situation with disabled facilities grants in the district, with hundreds of people sat waiting for vital adaptations to their homes - delays with assessments and budgets exhausted

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

Working to protect our rich heritage was a key manifesto commitment for #Thetford Labour Team this year - I'm delighted that Thetford Town Council has now written to @networkrail about the signal box at our train station - hope we can get it improved https://t.co/ReYrnfIjqS

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

So much positivity in #MidBedfordshire today for the by-election! Great to be able to help get out the vote with @AMoCS and @horatioharry - @BrecklandLabour out in support! Best of luck to @alistrathern

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

Channeling my inner farmer in this picture… but always great to see Thetford in the news for positive reasons https://t.co/BNlgZLWFK3

[Harry Clarke @horatioharry]

Good to see the East mentioned... in Dereham we now have 2 Lab Cllrs in Toftwood, 1st time in memory, (,2women) and a double win with me in Withburga #Fab4 @NorfolkLabourCC @BrecklandLabour

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

Disappointed that @BreckCouncil Tories charge ahead with plans to put dozens of sites at risk of development or sale - at odds with council priorities e.g Housing, Carbon Reduction, attempts to get people healthier & undertaking physical exercise - once land is gone, it's gone!

[Harry Clarke @horatioharry]

'War of words' erupts over plan to sell off public spaces for development https://t.co/3eWwSDsMhz <a little inaccurate in part of the line by paper, unusually. My thrust is about small sites USED as green PUBLIC spaces by residents, not brownfield sites

[Breckland Council @BreckCouncil]

Yesterday we held a full Council meeting where your Breckland councillors discussed a number of key topics including carbon reduction within our leisure centres, funding news and our latest finance update.

Watch the full meeting at https://t.co/FCiuZV6kop

[Harry Clarke @horatioharry]

Councillor refuses to rule out selling off town's car parks https://t.co/WRyexsRszs <I read the 2016 report and survey... hence my question , not just because its in the Breckland Bridge Biz plan .

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

Today's @EDP24 highlights the fab new wildflower meadows created in #Thetford by Thetford Town Council as a result of simply amending the mowing regime. Thanks for the photos @sconebirding and pleased to see quote from new Councillor @HazelEMcC

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

At the end of each month we will post a snapshot of what your local Labour Team has been working on and what they have achieved on your behalf. Remember, if you have any queries or comments then please do get in touch as well. Here's the Report Card for May - a busy first month!

Recycling centre under threat as public consultation starts over closure plans https://t.co/5qeOMrxalM

[Terry Jermy MP @TerryJermyMP]

This figure is concerning and doesn't include the many people who were put off voting entirely by the new requirements - either because they objected on principle or because they didn't know they could make other plans - e.g. voter authority certificates https://t.co/MaAt5HvxOy
