I'll be joining @bevcraig & @UKLabour colleagues from across Greater Manchester at this LGBTQ+ rally & social on Canal Street this Thursday.

Come down & meet the next Mayor of Greater Manchester! 🪩🌈🌹

[Bev Craig For Greater Manchester Mayor @bevcraig]

I’ll fight to make sure everyone shares in the success Greater Manchester is building - making sure there’s more money in people's pockets, pride in every town centre with a New High Streets Fund, a new generation of council and affordable homes and an expanded Bee Network that freezes fares and that works for all of us. 🐝 🌹

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

Oh my goodness, it was SO hard to say goodbye to everyone at the GMCA. 🥹

Thank you all for everything. I have loved working with you and will miss you so much. 🙏🏻

You couldn’t have given me a better leaving present! 🙌🏻

Great to be out in Makerfield again this morning for Andy Burnham with friends from @LabourEccles and across Salford.

[SalfordMayor @salford_mayor]

Thanks to @EcclesMosque for inviting me to speak to their community during yesterdays prayers.

Salford has a long-standing Muslim community, going back decades, and they are a vital part of our city's vibrant, diverse tapestry.

[Eccles Labour @LabourEccles]

Today we remember Alan Henning, our heroic Eccles aid worker, taken by ISIS on this day in 2014. Alan went to Syria not for glory, but for humanity. Terror will never win.

We honoured him with the Freedom of the City; his legacy lives on in our hearts.
Rest in power, Alan ❤️

Great to be out with Councillor Mike McCusker talking with residents in Eccles and Patricroft yesterday. Plenty of good conversations and both Mike and myself have got issues to take away.

Alan Bent, an Eccles Rugby Club volunteer, has received a Citizen’s Award for services to the community🏅
The former scrum-half has coached more than 500 girls and boys who have moved on to play competitive rugby at higher levels🏉

Interesting infographic from @equalitytrust on land ownership in the UK👇🏻

Often development focuses on how public sector land can be utilised to tackle the housing & homelessness crisis but as it only accounted for 8.5% in 2018 (likely less now!), we probably need to re-focus?🤔

[Eccles Labour @LabourEccles]

We had a fantastic time at the Monton Sports Club PCA Event & Open Day! Great vibes, kids' inflatables, local stalls, dance performances, a classy lunch & cricket with England legends 🏏 top-tier!
This an amazing community hub, thanks to all involved!

[Salford City Council @SalfordCouncil]

🚨 You asked for more policing on the Greenway @SalfordGmp delivered! They carried out targeted interventions, retrieving a stolen motorbike. Huge thanks to our community for reporting sightings and GMP for addressing our concerns at the recent PACT meeting. 🙌 #GMP #Eccles

[Eccles Labour @LabourEccles]

Thrilled to join @MWheelerMP at the unveiling of the new community space at Monton Unitarian Church! Huge thanks to @TheMSArch and Rev Anna @montonunitarian for the beautiful planters and seating. Rev Anna will be working with the community to decide what to grow 🥕🌽🍆🍎

[Eccles Labour @LabourEccles]

Great to be out on the beat with our newly appointed Sergeant tonight. A real asset to @SalfordGmp fantastic to see how positively the community responded.

Delighted to share that we’ll soon be getting an additional neighbourhood police officer joining our local team. #GMP

[Eccles Labour @LabourEccles]

Great to see the refurbishment and meet the dedicated staff at Mustard Tree today. This hub offers essential digital training, plus support through their shop and food club. Mustard Tree is key in our fight against poverty and homelessness. Support them! #ElevateSalford #Eccles

🚛 Tackling fly-tipping in #WorsleyAndEccles!

New powers mean councils can now seize & crush vehicles used for dumping waste illegally - Stronger action to keep our streets cleaner, safer, and greener.

Fly-tipping harms our community & it won’t be tolerated under @UKLabour.
