Saltash Labour

A place for members and supporters of the Labour Party in Saltash to keep up with local news, events and opportunities

[Luke Pollard MP @LukePollard]

With a team of @PlymouthLabour councillors I’ve travelled over the Tamar Bridge to help @annagelderd and the @SECornwallCLP team campaigning in Liskeard.

Today we’re all knocking on doors for @ladytraindriver who is Labour’s candidate here.

[Luke Pollard MP @LukePollard]

Over the bridge and into SE Cornwall this afternoon to help @annagelderd and the Labour council candidates standing in May’s local elections.

Great to help support Jane Suter in Saltash today and to talk Tamar Tolls with Anna. One team, working together.

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

Thank you @LukePollard for coming to South East Cornwall today, to support our brilliant local Labour candidates out on the doors discussing the key issues that matter.

Proud to be part of this hardworking team ahead of May’s elections! 🌹

It's great to see this robust @DCMS⁩ research recognising what we've always said at ⁦@YouthMusic. Music is good for your physical and mental health! Let's hope 2025 sees more much needed investment, particularly for grassroots youth spaces ⬇️ https://t.co/xIcnB9UTxK

This feels huge. What an opportunity to not only celebrate #Oasis but also to shine a light on, and invest the profits in, the amazing, young, emerging artists and bands cutting their teeth across the UK. Pay it forward @oasis and we know exactly where its needed @YouthMusic ✊

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

Great to hear from @lisanandy at @DCMS reception in #Manchester. Setting out what can be achieved by working together to support young people's diverse lives in music. Now let's deliver so music education & the industry punches above its weight. We'll play our part @YouthMusic 💪

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

Thank you to @SECornwallCLP for a fabulous evening celebrating our historic win here.

Much to reflect on, including how we set to work for next year’s council elections and show our towns and rural communities that Labour is delivering for them.

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

So proud of this @YouthMusic. Paying the REAL @LivingWageUK is one vital way to address the class ceiling, particularly in the music and wider creative industries ⬇️⬇️

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

Feeling immensely proud to be #SouthEastCornwall’s first Labour MP and to have taken the oath in Cornish today. Cornwall now has 4 Labour MPs, together we will fight to bring change to our communities🌹

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

🎙️TODAY @YouthMusic we publish Sound of the Next Generation 2024. An in depth exploration of children & young people's relationship and experiences with music. Revealing stark inequalities particularly for those living in the North compared to their counterparts in the South 1/2

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

Love this 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿❤️

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

Honoured and excited to be starting the journey from home in South East Cornwall to Westminster.

This is just the very beginning of the real work of change that people here have sent me and a Labour Government to do.

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

Love this 🌹⬇️

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

Congrats @bphillipsonMP. 25yrs since the last Labour government played a key role starting up @YouthMusic we look forward to working with you @educationgovuk and @lisanandy @DCMS to ensure music is at the heart of young people's lives, particularly those facing barriers to access

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

25yrs since the previous Labour government played a vital role in setting up @YouthMusic. We look forward to working with the new @UKLabour government to ensure music is central to young people's diverse lives, particularly those facing barriers to access. And it starts now #Hope

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

We have made history in South East Cornwall with our first ever Labour MP here. Thank you to the people who voted, and I want to give thanks to Sheryll Murray for her 14 years of service.

Whether you live in a town or a village, make a living on a farm, from the sea or in an office, I will represent each of you and be the fresh start we all need.

The hard work starts now.

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]

We've all been building to get to this wonderful moment. And @Kate4Kernow has been central to making it happen. A fab human ❤️🌹⬇️

[Anna Gelderd MP @annagelderd]

Thank you to the people of South East Cornwall for voting for a fresh start and putting your trust in me.

We have made history with our first ever Labour MP here, and the hard work of change starts now.

[Matt Griffiths @mattgriff1968]
