Congratulations Andy Burnham ♥️

Greater Manchester is leading the way. 🐝

So proud to have Andy as our Mayor. 🌹

What can I say other than a huge thank you and that I’m overwhelmed by your support.

I love this job, the people of this city-region and I promise you this third term will be the best yet for Greater Manchester.

I will do my best for everyone, whether you voted for me or not.

We’re in Ince getting out the vote for Councillor Janice Sharratt and Andy Burnham #VoteLabour 🌹

This morning I set out Labour's roadmap to fix Britain's railways.

Labour's plan means delivering a publicly owned railway within five years, putting passengers first, and bringing down costs for taxpayers.

Only Labour has a plan to get Britain moving.

Front page of the Mirror on Labour’s plan to bring rail back into public ownership. A better, greener transport system is key to help get Britain growing again. Credit to Lou Haigh and her team for rolling up their sleeves, ready to get the job done.

Lovely round of leafletting by the Leeds-Liverpool canal today. Just about finished with the full leaflet, thanks so much to all the volunteers, members and friends who helped! And for everyone who took the time to read it. #wiganlabour #votelabour #shevington #appleybridge

Evelyn told me that she wasn’t a technical person but now loves her computer! She’s a real ambassador for TechMates — a scheme which helps people to get online and become digital savvy. #shevington #TechForGood #wigan

Together with Bev Craig, I have made the case over the last seven years for a modern, underground station at Manchester Piccadilly.

Here is the confirmation from the Government that the door is finally open to one. 👍🏻

200 years after the North West of England gave railways to the world - we are going to build a new one.

Leafletting on the Standish side of our Ward today. Can see why it’s named Bullrush Meadow! #localelections24 #wigan

Ministers lowered performance targets for failing firms…opening the door to lucrative taxpayer-funded bonuses.
 
Rigging the rules to reward failure.

With Labour, change is coming. We will bring our railways into public ownership as contracts expire.

Great to be out today supporting colleagues in Shevington and Orrell, who are also up for re-election. #VoteLabour on 2nd May! 🌹

Out leafleting in Ince, Wigan Central and Standish today. Lovely day for it! ☀️

A common misconception is that we won't pursue those who ride anti-socially using off road bikes / scooters. Not true. Once we can put a structured response into place, we work relentlessly in partnership with colleagues such as NPAS North West Region to get these offenders locked up
