Somerset Clinical Commissioning Group: Save St Andrew's Ward, Wells, from closure. - Sign the Petition! chng.it/v7qDPNt2 via Change.org UK

Centralisation of services does not work. It is always the most vulnerable in our society who suffer from the closure of hospitals and police stations.

So well put by David Lammy, Englishness and Britishness are not terms of ethnicity or race, but of shared values of democracy, community, and social justice. So important to call out & educate, not just denounce.

Wells is a city with deep and intrinsic links to the countryside. The government must do more to support rural communities, ensure a fair deal for farmers, and create opportunities for young people outside urban areas. #VoteLabour #ruralmatters

Make sure you register to vote by the 19th April! gov.uk/register-to-vo… #VoteLabour #RegisterToVote #LocalDemocracy

Listen to Doreen Lawrence. She knows of what she speaks. theguardian.com/world/2021/apr…

Cronyism is totally unacceptable at any level of gov't & costs us all. Labour will ensure that the Wells will be an exemplar of democratic and local accountability, in stark contrast to the Tories at Westminster. #VoteLabour theguardian.com/world/2021/apr…

Instead of gimmicks which won't help our tourism and hospitality sectors, the gov't should be focussing on real support for businesses. Vaccine passports will only work when they're part of a proper plan for recovery. The Tories have no plan. #VoteLabour

I will make sure the recovery in Wells is a Green Recovery, including more charging points for electric cars, better access to sport and exercise, and a focus on local food networks. Let's build a cleaner future for our city! #VoteLabour #Wells #Somerset

Young and marginalised people have been hit especially hard by the pandemic - #VoteLabour on May 6th to make Wells a City of Opportunity so all our young people get the chance they deserve! #LocalElections

Under the Conservatives violent crime is up & victims are being failed. Vote Kerry Barker on 6th May for a strong voice for policing in Avon & Somerset focused on justice! #VoteLabour #Somerset #Bristol

Another step backwards from the Tories on safeguarding the future of our planet and our communities. Labour will ensure that a green economy is at the heart of our recovery after Covid. #VoteLabour for a cleaner, greener future!

Happy (belated) Easter! Easter is a time of hope and renewal, both things that are very welcome at the moment. But it is also a time for remembering tragedy and loss. So as we move towards the end of the pandemic, let's rejoice for that, as well as remembering those lost.

This week we've seen the effect of cronyism at the heart of government, with senior Tories acting as if they're accountable to no-one. Labour will ensure accountability to local people in Wells and Mendip. #VoteLabour #LocalElections2021

We've got to focus on a whole-life approach to health, if I'm elected, I'll make sure we expand foot & cycle paths, access to sport & exercise, and expand and support mental and physical health facilities in Wells.
