Reform threw everything at this and still came second, 16 points behind.
Turns out shouting on the internet doesn’t win council seats. Delivering for your local community does.
York REJECTS Reform.
Delighted for our local councillors, who work so hard & deserve this result.🌹
Absolutely brilliant to have @bphillipsonMP here in York Outer on this sunny Sunday!☀️
Great to be in Derwenthorpe talking about the positive difference the rollout of 30 hours of free childcare is already having.
I’m proud to be supporting her for Deputy Leader!🌹
A lovely autumn doorknocking session in Dringhouses, hearing encouraging stories about the NHS in York getting better at reducing elective waiting times, and the rollout of 30 hours of free childcare locally. 🍁
This week, I am expecting the birth of my second son, and will be on paternity leave for at least four weeks.
I'd like to say a heartfelt thank you to all those who have reached out and sent my family well wishes and kind words for the exciting next chapter in my family's life.
A short message to my constituents in York Outer:
Labour’s fixing the Tories’ HS2 mess — and investing in rail across the country.
Reform? All bluster, no plan — wasting taxpayers’ money and promising what they can’t afford.
It’s recklessness with Reform, or lasting change with Labour.
Next stop...better buses!🚏
After 14 years of the Tories, Britain’s bus wheels aren't going round - but I’m working with our @UKLabour government to fix them.
This means, giving local leaders the tools to decide what happens to local services & putting passengers at heart of everything we do.
Great to chat to @simonlightwood about the difference this will make in York Outer.
Today I tabled a Ten Minute Rule Bill to finally crack down on rogue bailiffs.
Britain is a caring, compassionate country—but for too long, vulnerable people have faced cruelty at the hands of bailiffs acting without proper oversight.
It’s time to end that.
This summer, millions of Brits will head to Europe for a well-earned break.
Holidaymakers want sun, not stress. Now is time to fix the Tories’ travel mess.
Let’s work with the EU following Monday’s relationship reset, to cut passport queues.
Great to be over in Runcorn and out on the doors for our brilliant local @UKLabour candidate, Karen Shore.
As a teacher in the community and a local councillor she absolutely has what it takes to be Runcorn and Helsby’s champion in Westminster!🌹
Smashing day on the doors in Runcorn for our brilliant candidate Karen Shore!
Karen has a plan for Runcorn and Helsby and would work with our @UKLabour government to deliver real change!🌹
🚨Breaking news: The Government has confirmed £2.5m of funding to bolster York Outer’s flood defences.
This breaks down into £1.5m for Clifton Ings, £1m for Fulford, and support for Bishopthorpe too.
This something I’ve been fighting for since being elected, and I’m immensely grateful to all the constituents who’ve supported my campaign.
Disappointing, but not entirely surprising, to hear York’s @ConservativesYO Councillors leader repeat misogynistic tropes about our first-ever female Chancellor at Budget Council this evening.
It’s not that hard to address the Chancellor properly. Do better.
