Oh @JoshFG. I am so thrilled for you. Thank you for working so hard for us for so long. Thank you for believing. So very deserved. A Labour MP in the Calder Valley at last 🌹🥰🥰
I am putting myself forward to be the next MP for Calder Valley.
I will be a candidate, and MP, who hits the ground running:
🗳 I have outperformed national Labour Party trends in every election I stood in
🏥 I have made a difference for Calder Valley, leading a campaign that stopped the closure of our A&E department - despite our Tory MP trying to close it
😷 I have achieved change through the council too, making Calderdale the first West Yorkshire authority to commit to paying care workers the living wage
🏢 I know how to get things done as an MP. Working for a food bank campaign, I persuaded MPs in Westminster to get children fed in school holidays.
It is #MentaHealthAwarenessDay for me every day. I have to work very hard to look after my mental health. The smile is what people see, the meds are what goes on behind the scenes #EndTheStigma
