A lovely day in Northallerton talking to local businesses and voters at the market. I wanted to thank everyone for their support over the campaign. Change won't happen unless you vote for it, so make a plan to vote, and let's see the back of this government once and for all!

Happy National Northern Authors Day #NNAD! I'm an author based in Teesside. My debut novel, THE MOON AND STARS, was published in 2022. I write character-driven 'up-lit' novels and fantasy. I'm unagented, if there are any lovely agents who would like to get in touch...?

In 10 days time, we get the chance to choose change. To turn the page and begin to rebuild our country. Change will only happen if you vote for it. Vote Labour on Thursday 4 July.

It has been eight years since our friend Jo was murdered.    I will always carry Jo’s words with me as we campaign for change: “We are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us.”

This is a hoax. Labour needs one of the biggest electoral swings in history for a majority of one. If you want change, vote for it purposefully.
