“The much-needed new election system needs to be as good as we can make it. This requires expert design & public legitimacy. If Andy Burnham is as good as his word, he'll set up a National Commission on Electoral Reform, as proposed by @FairElectionsUK”

Great to see our largest town in the Weald of Kent featured in @DailyMirror describing Tenterden as England's 'most underrated' town and home to thriving high street and independent shops https://t.co/rGr1RPxLJe

'We are going to get Britain believing again and bring back hope'. New @UKLabour Prime Minister @andyburnham taking action to help families; by reducing bus fares, cutting business rates for pubs, clubs & music venues, cutting VAT on electricity bills. https://t.co/ekbw1TH5v3

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

Pubs deserve our backing. I’m not sure some of @JohnHealey_MP's choices here do though...

Our 20% cut in business rates will benefit thousands of pubs, clubs and music venues across the country.

@darrenpjones You’re a bright guy promoted fast…but not surprisingly you have a lot to learn. Becoming an arm chair smart arse is not a good look!

[UK Prime Minister @10DowningStreet]

A very warm welcome to Downing Street, Prime Minister @andyburnham.

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

Let’s bring back hope.

[Weald of Kent Labour @woklabour]

What a game! Congratulations @England on a great performance…best in the World Cup since 1966.

[Cllr. David Ward @DavidDjward]

33 years ago today John Smith was elected @UKLabour leader. His strong commitment to social justice, devolution, & unity of purpose strikingly similar to @andyburnham yesterday. Refreshing to have a leader so comfortable in his role & values as Smith was then & Burnham is now.

[Weald of Kent Labour @woklabour]

Congratulations from the Weald of Kent Labour Party to @andyburnham on his election as leader of @uklabour! Your acceptance speech on our values & unity of purpose gives us a new opportunity to deliver on the change agenda that was promised in 2024. Let’s go to it!

[The Labour Party @UKLabour]

People have been waiting too long for politics to let them hope again.

We’re going to give them that hope back.

[Andy Burnham @andyburnham]

It’s the honour of my life to be Leader of the Labour Party.

I will be a leader for every region and nation in this great country, and this Party will be unashamedly Labour in our priorities and in the decisions we take.

Together, we will set Britain on a new path.

[Weald of Kent Labour @woklabour]

New structure of Kent’s 4 unitary authorities revealed. Offers potential for efficiencies in local services & improved public accountability. Elections for new Councillors for mid-Kent UA will be held in May ‘27 ahead of formation in April ‘28. https://t.co/9QvKVyFfTD

[Weald of Kent Labour @woklabour]

Go To It!

[LCER @Labour4PR]

“Andy should commit to launching a National Commission within his first 100 days.

If Labour are to deliver “good growth in every postcode and hope in every heart”, we must rewire Westminster.”
