THANK YOU to everyone who helped us win in both Norwich North and Norwich South at #GE24!

After 14 years of Tory rule, our NHS is broken - but not beaten.
The @UKLabour government is launching the biggest consultation in NHS history to gather views and experiences from patients, staff and partners to inform a 10 Year Plan.

SECOND READING - PASSED.
Brilliant job @AngelaRayner and @jreynoldsMP, and all the Labour MPs who spoke in the debate to explain why it matters and highlight important issues.
Now for Committee Stage
BRING. IT. ON.
Private companies are mismanaging our water. Everybody knows it. A national and democratic conversation about the future of our water is long overdue. Agree? Back my new Water Bill, to overhaul our failing system for good.

I'll keep fighting to ensure that our schools are safe for all children.
I look forward to working with the Department for Education to take steps to ensure guidance is now fit for purpose๐ซ

Today, @UKLabour has announced the first round of funding for its schools-based nurseries programme.
These will offer support to working families and ensure children get a quality early education.
I've just introduced my Water Bill to Parliament, which would overhaul an obviously failing system.
It's being debated on Friday 28 March. We've got between now and then to build the biggest campaign we can.
In May, @UKSarahTaylor was elected as Norfolkโs first ever Labour Police and Crime Commissioner. ๐ฎ ๐น

๐ Thank you to everyone who joined @AliceMLabour and @labourlewis on the #labourdoorstep over the weekend!
๐ฏ Saturday marked 100 days of a Labour government.
๐น We campaigned hard to help make this happen, but weโre out supporting communities all year round too.
Today marks 100 days of a Labour Government and I'm proud to be a part of this historic change!
Here are just some of the things we have done to help build a better Britain๐น
The Tories presided over 14 years of decline, undermined our public services, and wrecked our economy.
Labour is getting on with the job and delivering the long-term change we need.
This 100 days is just the start.
This weekend will mark 100 days of a Labour Government.
Weโll be back out on the #labourdoorstep, talking to local people across the city about the issues that matter most to them.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our Labour MPs for their unwavering support in our campaign against the Norwich Western Link Road.
We appreciate the efforts of @AliceMLabour and @BenGoldsborough from South Norfolk, who joined @labourlewis in a productive meeting with the Roads Minister.
During this meeting, they collectively articulated our strong opposition to the project, highlighting the critical concerns that resonate with our community:
- The potential devastation to local ecosystems, which are vital for our environment and biodiversity.
- The runaway costs associated with the project, which raise questions about fiscal responsibility.
- The urgent need for a reassessment of how our budget is allocated; a small fraction of these funds could be redirected towards more effective solutions, such as preventing rat running, alleviating the Trowse bridge bottlenecks, and developing a comprehensive integrated public transport system across Norfolk.
They encouraged the Minister's commitment to consider our concerns as the Department reviews its current infrastructure spending programme.
Together, we stand firm in our resolve to ensure that our voices are heard and that sustainable, community-focused solutions take precedence over environmentally detrimental projects.
