Peter John OBE - Chair of London Councils 2018-20. Leader, Southwark Council 2010-20. Barrister and Founding Partner of Quoin Partners. Old Vic Trustee
An “interesting”evening for Greater Manchester politics - I’m a fan of @AndyBurnhamGM as Mayor but it would be a massive gamble for him and @UKLabour if we have to face a Mayoral by-election. We can’t risk @reformparty_uk winning in GM - so let’s not take that risk.
Just bumped into @jonnyweldon at Liverpool Street. What a charming guy - and lovely to tell him how much I enjoyed the brilliant #OneDay Good luck to him for the next season of #Rivals
@brianglenntv Congratulations on helping to make the Oval Office meeting such a disaster. Your question was not relevant to the purpose of yesterday’s meeting. On that basis you would have been better off staying silent or asking a question which was relevant.
Truly delighted to see my friend and former Chief Executive Eleanor Kelly awarded a much deserved CBE in tonight’s New Year’s honours. Recognition of a life working for local government, serving Southwark, London and many more beyond during the pandemic.
Delighted to hear that the incomparable @bryony1963 has just been elected as the President of the Socialist, Green and Progressive Party group at the @COECongress - a rare honour for a UK delegate! Take that Bobby Jenrick!!
@Georgia_Gould Your contribution to local government in London has been immense. You have been an exceptional Leader and Chair of London Councils. I know further great things await.
