What a difference a year makes…
This time last year up to 30k people filled our Golden Mile to watch the Diwali lights being switched on!
Today…closed shops and empty restaurants 😬
Glad to have kicked off Diwali with @dianecank145 and @rita_patel_ on Belgrave Road 🪔
Seems that the Diwali lights will be switched on this Thursday…without a celebration.
I hope the community and local businesses still make an evening of it and show @Leicester_News the big mistake they made!
@ShivaniRaja_LE will you be there??
This is today’s Labour Party.
Shameful from @JonAshworth - riling up this immigration nonsense and naming the countries many in his constituency are from.
Read the room Jon 🙄
Perhaps @reformparty_uk have a seat for him in their ranks 🤷🏽♂️?
There is just a few days left until Election Day ☀️
It is time we send a message that local people know what’s best for their communities.
Vote ASKARI for:
✅ More bobbies on the beat

We’re thrilled to say that students from @ADAdancecollege will be learning their craft at Leicester’s Haymarket Theatre from September!
Just watch them!
Huge thanks to all the NHS staff who are doing their best to keep the health service going despite having 10% fewer staff than we’re meant to have.
We see what you do, and couldn’t be more grateful 💙
The announcement by @SuellaBraverman on students will cause real hardship to many overseas students and to universities. They simply will not come to the UK to study @UniversitiesUK
