Congratulations to Gareth Bacon on his re-election.

While I was not elected, I would like to thank everyone who voted for me, and my campaign team for their hard work, delivering a record result for Labour in Orpington.

I am delighted we have a Labour Government! 🌹🌹🌹

Often, the proclamation of truth is obscured by what we today call “fake news” — lies, insinuations, and unfounded accusations. Yet, in the face of such obstacles, the truth does not remain hidden; rather, it comes forth to meet us, living and radiant, illuminating even the deepest darkness.

Bromley Well delivers a suite of Hospital Aftercare services managed by @AGeUKBandG that play a crucial role in Bromley’s discharge and prevention pathways, reinforcing the importance of community-based prevention services, reducing pressure on services. @OneBromley

Great to drop by the public consultation on replacing the bridge in Kelsey Park. After several years and many delays, it’s good to see progress in finally being made on this. 🤞Fingers crossed we’ll have a new bridge early next year. 🤞

After 5+ years, 3 international crises, a pandemic, 4000+ cases, and a general election I am leaving team @elliereeves

While there have been challenges- see above- I’m proud of the successes I’ve been part of and I’m leaving with no regrets. Looking forward to what comes next.

"It’s an incredible privilege to be awarded an OBE, and I’m truly honoured to be recognised in this way. Lewisham has been my home for over 40 years. It’s where I’ve raised my family and built my life.

[Simon Jeal @simon_jeal]

Great to hear @LewishamCouncil Cllr Amanda De Ryk speak at @LewishamBromley AGM last night on the council working with them to support low income people and reduce homelessness.

Meanwhile @LBofBromley are closing their welfare fund and cutting council tax support by 20%…

@ActLukeAdamson @OffWestEndCom That’s so poor!

Finally got round to writing some thoughts about some of the theatre I’ve seen recently so here’s my review of What a Gay Day!- The Larry Grayson Story showing @PengeTheatre until 1st March.

[Ju Owens @ju_owens]

Always great to get out on the doorstep- lots of great feedback too!

[Liam Conlon @LiamConlon2]

A really positive response from residents - thanks to everyone who took the time to talk to us! 🌹

Great to see this tonight. @BTSFacsimile productions are always worth catching! On until 2nd November @PengeTheatre

[Simon Jeal @simon_jeal]

‘Disgusting’ comments made by a Conservative @LBofBromley Cllr last night, suggesting some homeless veterans are not “genuine, loyal service members” & did not deserve housing.

I’ve written to the Council Armed Forces Champion asking if they share, or will condemn, his views.

[Ju Owens @ju_owens]

@LabourMarina @sussex_police @RoyalSurrey So sorry for your loss. Thinking of you.

[Ju Owens @ju_owens]

It’s been a great week of theatre seeing I wish you well on Monday, catching @ActLukeAdamson in Hancock’s Half Hour on Friday and rounding out the week seeing the other half of @PengeTheatre @Joseph_Lindoe in the amazingly compelling Lucky Dog!

[Ju Owens @ju_owens]

Loved seeing this- very clever and very moving. If you’re about tomorrow I fully recommend.

[The Bridge House Theatre @PengeTheatre]

Opening Tonight: INCOMPLETE
‘Incomplete’ is a story of pain, regret, of lost love found. Happy endings may be found in the strangest of places...
