When is @YorkshireWater going to come to sort the sewage that’s been pouring out of a manhole cover and covering Carr Lane, Riddlesden, for more than 3wks? Answers on a postcard… 💩

Today, the first woman Chancellor of the Exchequer delivers @UKLabour’s first budget in 14 years. We are looking forward to seeing @RachelReevesMP at the Despatch Box after PMQs. #Budget24
Great news!
📣 Campaign WIN 📣
Absolutely thrilled with today’s news that the National Wealth Fund will be headquartered in Leeds
Huge thanks to @yorkshirepost and @UniversityLeeds @piersforster for backing the call.
Hurray. A good day for Leeds. A good day for the country. A good day for green jobs.

Agreed! Such a great conference, made all the more special by friends we pick up along the way - friends who always build you up and never tear you down.
One of the most wonderful things that happens at each Labour Conference now is the chance to meet up again with my incredible sisters from the #JoCoxLeadership scheme.
I don’t have photos of everyone I met up with but it was an absolute joy to see you all. It’s a bond like no other. I’m so lucky to have you all in my life ❤️🌹

Thanks so much for a lovely morning and for being such welcoming, supportive sisters, @AberGirl2011! Can’t wait to meet again soon.

Yet Robbie Moore, the minister at the centre of this, put out a video yesterday saying “as your MP - I will always hold those who pollute to account”. Hypocrisy.
NEW
Tories tried to hide the extent of sewage spills before election, despite warnings from top officials that it would damage the government and the Environment Agency

It’s time for change in #Keighley
🗣️ Each day we have been out across the constituency with John Grogan, talking and listening to residents.
🚪 The message on the doorstep is clear, people are fed-up with 14 years of Conservative chaos.
🌹Remember only Labour can beat the Tories in Keighley & Ilkley.

What a man. What a smile. What a legacy.
'By the time that you watch this I will no longer be here'

It was great to be at John’s launch in #Keighley. He’s such a great and knowledgeable campaigner as well as being the uniting candidate for the town. #VoteLabour on July 4!
✊ It was great to see such an amazing turnout in support of John Grogan for his General Election campaign launches in Keighley & Ilkley.

Wonderful news for @jocoles1 and the people of NYorks. But we will miss Jo’s wisdom in the office. I’ve only worked with her a couple of months & in that time she’s been a great support, helping me to settle in. I’ll be cheering her on as she takes up this exciting new role.
I'm honoured to have been proposed by our brilliant new Mayor @DSkaith to be deputy mayor with responsibility for police, crime & fire - & will always serve all residents of York & North Yorkshire to the very best of my ability
