I was out this afternoon meeting and listening to residents in and around Tranmere Park with Eleanor Thomson 🐝🌹🇺🇦. A cold afternoon but lots of good conversations. Then a fantastic evening of tango at #Guiseley Theatre with guests from Argentina; a high quality event.

BREAKING: Tracy Brabin WY 🌹 decides to franchise buses in West Yorkhshire and end decades of deregulation and decline. Leeds Labour Group councillors voted to ask for this in our council meeting in November and with one of our bus companies the country's worst we need this change!

Fantastic news and yet more evidence of the difference that having #Labour representation makes. The need for greater local control and accountability is urgent and Tracy Brabin, Mayor of West Yorkshire has listened to the needs of residents in our communities and shown leadership.

Guiseley and Rawdon has two of the hardest working councillors I’ve ever met, come rain or shine they’re out talking to residents. Thankfully I brought my trusty labour ☂️ today as it poured! Let’s hope we can get a 3rd councillor - on 2nd May. Vote for Sonia Leighton 🌹 🗳️
