Today is Emergency Services Day. On 9 September, we honour the incredible people who serve in our emergency services.
Thank you for your courage, commitment and care. We proudly fly the #999Day flag in recognition of your vital role in our communities.
Terrible news coming out of #Vantaa a new town like #Harlow who were members of the European New Towns Platform when I was President. My prayers and thoughts are with the people of the town today as we process this awful shooting. I pray no fatalities.
My thoughts & prayers today are with Luke Mackenzie’s family & friends.
Luke was Mayor of Basildon last year & this. I had the pleasure of knowing & working with him. He was a dedicated & passionate public servant.
He has sadly passed away, at far too young an age.
RIP.
A pleasure to join @StPaulsHarlow for their Carol Service and an honour to be asked to read Matthew 2 1-12 as a contribution to a beautiful service. Thank you @martininharlow for inviting me.
An honour tonight to be invited to hand out the awards @MakinSteps#Harlow another example of how many amazingly talented young people we have in our town
Lovely to join Daniel Robinson & Sons with the Deputy @Essex_LL and @halfon4harlowMP on welcoming children on their Children's Convoy & Panto Trip at @harlowplayhouse#harlow
An honour tonight to make presentations to and give the address at #Harlow@SeaCadetsUK - I was privileged to meet an amazing group of young people who epitomise service and dedication to their community.
