Joined fellow @IslingtonBC councillors for a beautiful, thoughtful and reflective inter-faith and all age Remembrance Sunday parade, perhaps best summarised by the quote on the last page.
Another fab canvassing session in Junction Ward and a great response on the doors this evening. Always enjoy chatting to residents about their local issues and I’d be honoured to represent them if elected on 28th November! 🌹
I wouldn't go to the opening of an envelope, but the official opening of the new lift at Hind House was cause for celebration. Combined with bouncy castles, snacks and Jerk Chicken. I love that we have so many events to meet with neighbours celebrate the Islington community
I loved being @EH_Highbury community party last night. Well over 100 people gathered for food, conversation and music. I can't praise the staff and volunteers enough for the amazing work they do to ensure we have a community where everyone is welcomed, valued and cared about.
Lovely afternoon accompanying @islingtonmayor to the Hillside
Estate Summer picnic. Such a great community initiative and lovely to see so many people enjoying it. And thank you for the beautiful flowers
So much to love about being an @IslingtonBC councillor as there is just so much happening in the borough. This weekend @GillespieSchool summer fair (starring a musical set from the head teacher) and the Cally Festival. No time to recover from 6 weeks general election campaigning
🚨Another historic election 🚨
I am proud and honoured to have worked on the @UKLabour’s General Election campaign that’s delivered a landslide with 411 MPs — the first of my adult life.
Can’t wait to see what Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer and his team achieve!
@IslingtonLabour canvassing day trip to our twinned marginal, Dover and Deal. Lovely weather, good company lots of hills and no time for a swim.... But we will be back next weekend for more (and hopefully a beach stop).
A day when my role as a paediatrician and being an Arsenal Ward local @IslingtonBC councillor came together. Meeting with @AFCCommunity to talk about the amazing support and resources they can offer for our local patients. Arsenal in the Community is so much more than football
Helping to get @RNBlake elected as Labour MP for Cities of London and Westminster this morning. A key seat in the upcoming election and the first time it could go red.

A break from canvassing for @IslingtonLabour to remember some of the children known to our palliative care team. All so unique, so precious and so loved. Each one brought something special to our lives x
So true. As a palliative care doctor I now find myself routinely having to have end-of-life conversations with elderly patients on trolleys in corridors. It’s unimaginably undignified & wrong,
And it didn’t used to be like this.
14 years of Tory policies have savaged the NHS.
Great to join @itsandyfletch and @Tog4ShortLives at House of Parliament yesterday to meet MPs and advocate for palliative, end of life and bereavement care to be a funding priority for the next government.
