After 13 years of Tory chaos, if we needed another reminder that we must have a change of government, we got it this week.
To do that we need to win in Earley and Woodley.
When the time comes, I’ll be asking for your support to be Labour's candidate:

@ssencommunity Sorry if I was grumpy. 😬 Had just arranged something before the letter came through the door 😂

[James Thorne @bfjiant]

@ssencommunity one week's notice of our power going off is not long enough. I know you only have to give two day's notice but you must have known about connecting a new supply for more than a week. Not great project planning if not. Loads of plans to change and cancel now

[James Thorne @bfjiant]

@ssencommunity No worries 😁

@richardelliot @lewicyclists @bikesandbabies @thunderstormbun asked me to mention ours. We've used a double @rideweehoo trailer for the last 7 years but no buggy conversion. ☹️ Two panniers included for storage and it sneaks through width restrictions that other double trailers don't https://t.co/t5Hb6ejhRp
