Another solid media performance from #JD4Mayor. Unsurprisingly he didn't know the business question but that's okay cause he wants to get rid of all big business and the jobs that they provide for 1000s of people from North of Tyne anyway
#JD4Mayor declaring a climate emergency. I'm curious at what point of the emergency does he get rid of the gasguzzling Landrover? Or like education policy (private school) & tax avoidance (your book on Amazon) is this more of a 'do as I say not as I do thing' #NorthofTyneMayor
Yesterday BBC Politics again showed how arrogant #DisasterDriscoll is. Much like THAT Brexit intereview (you're trying to simplify the question) when under scrutiny he tries to claim that something is 'complicated' and inferring only he understands. #ManOfThePeople#JD4Mayor
Interesting not a single @UKLabour big-hitter come to support Disaster Driscoll #JD4Mayor. Usually you’d see visits from other mayors or shadow ministers but nothing? Thought he was Corbyn’s man - but even he’s distancing himself from him for some reason 🤔🤔#DisasterDriscoll.
That look when you are put under the slightest scrutiny whether on your ‘business’, commitment to state education, climate change hypocrisy, proudly being endorsed by someone suspended for antisemitism or railing against tax avoidance whilst selling your book on Amazon #JD4Mayor
Look at the body language, it is the body language of someone caught out. It is shifty and uncomfortable #JD4Mayor isn’t fit to be elected North of Tyne Mayor,
Perhaps we can improve them to extent that #JD4Mayor may actually send his children to a non-fee paying comprehensive school?

It is not just Chris Williamson who has endorsed #JD4Mayor. Jamie is a 'committed feminist', which is why he is proud to have been endorsed by bro-socialist @labourlewis Clive Lewis who once told a woman activist to 'get on your knees' #feminist
Once again #JD4Mayor showing his bro-socialist and narcissist credentials. Its all about him. Like his bro-socialist pals Galloway and Williamson.
"One of the things that appealed about this role is there's no whip and no structure above the mayor in the Labour party", he said.
Jamie Driscoll, Labour/Momentum candidate for North of Tyne Mayor, proudly retweeting endorsement of a man suspended from @UKLabour for antisemitism. Bet he has fingers crossed for other key former labour figures like Galloway and Livingstone. Disgrace he’s a Labour candidate
"STOP POLLUTING THE WORLD" shouts #Hypocrite @NorthTyneCA @PeoplesMomentum candidate @MayorJd4#jd4Mayor as he tours the region in his polluting Land Rover.
What this man lacks in integrity he makes up for in arrogance. He'll be telling us how awful private schools are next.

Hey @joepike have you considered a follow up with @MayorJd4#JD4Mayor? I would love to hear his thoughts on the current #Brexit situation

WATCH: Jamie Driscoll - Labour's candidate to be the new North of Tyne Mayor - struggles to explain his position on #Brexit.
It is unclear whether he:
-Wants Brexit to happen or not.
-Wants a second referendum or not.
@itvtynetees
Thanks for the email @MayorJd4#jd4Mayor and telling us "when Labour wins, it won't be my victory — it'll be yours". Is that why you've swanned off on holiday during the campaign? Be good if you'd actually do some of the work.
To people who question my commitment to public service just look at my record. I've attended 0% of budget meetings as a councillor - and I will give that same commitment to all in North of Tyne #JD4Mayor@MayorJd4@danhollandnews
No sign of “Mayor” Driscoll at council Budget meeting this evening. Have Labour locked him in a room somewhere to prevent him from speaking on Brexit in the debate on a second referendum later this evening? @watch_jd
When you have to defend yourself from accusations of being 'a great danger' you've already lost the argument. #JD4Mayor
Jamie Driscoll hits back at claims he is 'a great danger' for the North East https://t.co/RRhYztki9y
Chi's face at the moment she realises that the Minister hits the nail on the head describing @MayorJd4 as a momentum hard left candidate inspired by Derek Hatton and Ken Livingstone #JD4Mayor
