1/2 I realise the irony of keeping on opening up this app to talk about not using it any more. But that notwithstanding :
I have set up an instagram page and a FB page for my councillor work…

[Liz Cronin @LizCronin97]

A busy few days for @rectripp and me, including being interviewed by the young people of Forest Gate Youth Zone and some Essex Street #labourdoorstep.

🔌: The police are still offering free bike marking and advice until 4PM outside Number 8!

Today Rachel and I welcomed Abi Gbago, Newham Council’s CEO, to a walkabout all across Forest Gate North.

We talked about what we’re proudest of as well as our biggest challenges, and how officers and local politicians can work together for residents 🤝

Forest Gate North in Parliament 🕰️

After 12 years, the @LondonLegacy Planning Decisions Committee held its last 5-hour meeting! It’s been a privilege to help shape the QEII Park and surrounding areas over my 5 years. Exciting challenges await when planning powers return to the boroughs in December!

@ColoradoMike81 @sewistwrites My youngest, despite my efforts, ate almost no protein at all that I was aware of for at least 2 years, with no discernible impact on her growth or health (um, so far…!!). Hang in there. These small people are sent to try us.

[Liz Cronin @LizCronin97]

The rain didn’t stop the Forest Gate Jumble Trail! A fab day for all, kindly supported by @Wilkinson_E7, with unreal finds to be found 🕵🏻‍♀️

[Liz Cronin @LizCronin97]

@RedPencilScript @MerriamWebster I came on to say **exactly** this. I don’t know why the word ‘utilise’ winds me up so much but it is infuriating to me. The word ‘use’ is right there.

[The Magpie Project @magpieprojectuk]

Volunteers are our life-blood. We could not do anything without you!
If you want to help but don't know where to start spend the morning with us at our new building on Thursday September 5th (10 til 12) - and find out how you can be part of the Magpie Project Magic.

@MarianneLevy It was mistakenly on my mental ‘should but probably will be worthy and hard going’ list and I have never been more wrong, I **raced** through it.
