🏅 And last but not least, we have the winner of the #Lab23 Best Practice Award for Best Inclusive Campaign. Congratulations Swindon Labour Councillors for being so welcoming to volunteers in your campaign to win Swindon in May.
Good to speak to ITV News West Country this week at Labour Party conference along with Cllr Marianne Le Coyte Grinney and @BAdamsLab - we know there’s lots of hard work to do to ensure Swindon has two Labour MPs after the next General Election, but we’re up for the challenge. #Lab23
So this happened! Thank you Jenny Chapman and Nick Smith MP for helping me launch my campaign to be the next MP for Swindon South! #VoteLabour #Swindon
Still can’t quite believe this happened! Incredible to see Keir Starmer walking into No10 today and to know that South Swindon Labour played our part in securing that victory. The hard work starts today.
Back home after a busy day at the Council. Was delighted to be part of the opening of Museum & Art Swindon Swindon alongside Cllr Marina Strinkovsky Linda Kasmaty and the Mayor Imtiyaz Shaikh! Open to the public from 10.30am tomorrow… #BuildingABetterSwindon
