Braving the cold to talk to commuters at Cross Gates station. Fares hiked once again today - that's 32% since the Tories came to power #RailFail

[East Leeds Labour @EastLeedsLabour]

We'll be delivering leaflets to households in the Cross Gates & Whinmoor ward this Saturday. Come along and help for an hour and then have a drink and a catch up with us afterwards. Meet 10.30 Old Red Lion, York Road. ....Don't forget your gloves !

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Wonderful to welcome @jeremycorbyn to East #Leeds last night, where he joined us at Barnbow in Crossgates for @EastLeedsLabour Christmas Social.

[John McDonnell @johnmcdonnellMP]

The man in charge of our economy, @PhilipHammondUK, is completely out of touch with millions of people the economy isn’t working for. #Marr

Meeting Israel's PM not simple as dropping him a quick text to see if he's around for coffee. For how long did Priti hide plan from UK PM?

[East Leeds Labour @EastLeedsLabour]

Join us for doorknocking in Swarcliffe on Sunday (22nd)! Meeting at Swarcliffe Community Centre at 10:45am. All welcome

"Never allow the Left to say they have a monopoly on compassion" - Theresa May. "Clear away the bodies" and make a profit - Boris Johnson.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

In July, #TheresaMay asked for policy ideas so I sent her our manifesto. Taking a few of our policies & watering them down won't work #CPC17 https://t.co/PZXdfb3pXY

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Great to go for a fish and chip farewell to Brighton with @EastLeedsLabour members after Conference finished. They've done our CLP proud!

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Great to hear members' views on justice and home affairs alongside @HackneyAbbott at a totally packed meeting. #Lab17

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Our prisons are so understaffed & overcrowded they're no longer safe for prisoners or officers. Great meeting with @thehowardleague #lab17

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Pleasure to meet with Young Labour lawyers determined to defend the legal rights of working people & their families. Well done @YoungLabLaw

My comment in @HuffPostUK as we reveal Government giving extra cash to failing probation firms: https://t.co/CX0FyVySpJ # via @HuffPostUKPol

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Government should stop rewarding failure by throwing cash at failing probation companies: https://t.co/CX0FyVySpJ # via @HuffPostUKPol

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

It's right Mr Ward released. All on IPP sentences who've served minimum tariff and aren't a danger to the public should be released ASAP. https://t.co/xA1sYnyKFD

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Great monthly meeting of @EastLeedsLabour members in Seacroft tonight with the ever inspiring @DerbyChrisW as our special guest speaker.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

The unveiling at tonight's event I organised with East Leeds History Society to mark 100 years since birth of our former MP Denis Healey.

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Our Denis Healey display. With Dougie Gabb - Denis' former Election Agent - and Marie, who voted to select Denis in 1953 and me in 2014!

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

Here's to all students in East Leeds receiving their A-Levels today. I hope you enjoy celebrating this milestone with your friends & family.
