On the day that schools closed indefinitely due to coronavirus our Year 1s planted out their wild flowers in the School House Garden. Let's see how tall the flowers have grown when the kids come back. Stay well Holmleigh people! ❤❤🏋️‍♂️🏋️‍♂️👍👍 @TreesforCities @foholmleigh

PS @GuidoFawkes I have been in the Westminster Lobby for over thirty years (since before you wer born) and am a former Lobby Chairman. I have never heard of an "inner lobby". This takes blatant attempts to divide and rule to a new level. So please don't lie.

Happy birthday to our awesome intern Izzy!!!! 20 today! YAY!

So Dear Followers, I have begun the process of deactivating this account. Apparently it
takes up to 30 days.

If you fancy keeping in touch then please follow ‘mikehopkinsfe’. If you don’t, all the very best.

[Mike Hopkins @MikeHopkinsSDC]

Hello dear followers. So sorry about the Easter weekend weather.

‘Stormzy’ was always a favourite among the pups - and he is going to @redshepherdess

Apparently he’s keeping his puppy name as well - ‘Storm’

All homed.
Loved that litter of pups.

Don’t think we will breed from Floss again, she has done her bit, so end of an era.
