Congratulations on your new appointment. I hope you might find time to visit Erdington Community Town Library to see the role it plays in the community's cultural heritage, and in the provision of book and digital services.

Honoured to have been asked by our new Brum Labour Leader to join his cabinet as Cabinet Member for Digital, Culture, Heritage and Tourism. I look forward to working with colleagues to tackle some of the challenges we face to build a cleaner, safer, and better Birmingham for all.

@Harborne_Jayne Would you also include Erdington Lunar Society/Friends of Erdington Library in any deliberations of the future of Erdington Library?

In 1889 Vincent was invited to exhibit his work by Les XX (‘The Twenty’), a progressive Belgian artists’ society. Vincent picked out six paintings – matched by colour – on the theme of the seasons. It wasn’t until after his death that his first solo exhibition was organised.

I'm in Kyiv, I'm safe and I'm going to bed. Please stop panicking everybody. That doesn't help us in Ukraine

It's hard to believe we helped liberate France in 1944, isn't it?

I think a lot of people assume #LongCovid is a continuation of the acute COVID symptoms, that just take a long time to get over.

In reality it is an often delayed onset of *new* neurological, immunological, cardiovascular, and systemic symptoms.

Even though police have been moving in on protesters in Windsor, pushing them back, the crowd size actually seems to be growing. More protesters are arriving and few are leaving.

If you believe in neoliberalism backed by an autocratic management style Party, including a stranglehold on CLP's, yes. I don't. I'm a democratic socialist.

A fantastic turn out for #CostOfLivingCrisis protest in #liverpool today. Proud to be part of a city that stands up for what is right and just #peoplepower #communitypower

[Mike Jackson @MikeJack41]

Just bear in mind that that was said about the Labour Representation Committee in 1900!

[Mike Jackson @MikeJack41]

I agree it was about socialism. It was about Jeremy too...an honest politician of great integrity who inspires a generation of young people.

[Mike Jackson @MikeJack41]

Oh...leading it to the Right, you mean, and surrendering in the face of the government's onslaught on the working class? You're very welcome to him.

[Caitlin Houlbrook @CHHoulbrook]

I, for one, am proud to have Keir Starmer leading our party.

@PaulTempleman6 The real problem is that democracy isn't in the balance. When Parliament is treated with disdain, and the law is treated with contempt, we have no democracy.

This @kevpeellab @BurySouthCLP picture tells you more than a thousand words could about the current state of the Labour Party.
