Today I’ve written to Robert Jenrick calling for more support for local councils to help our residents as the Covid crisis continues. Local government should not have to bear these costs without further government support

Government should have made this decision yesterday, but again have failed to deliver. Instead Southwark Council once again steps in to provide for our residents, delivering free school meals throughout the upcoming half term, doing our part to #ENDCHILDFOODPOVERTY

Ahead of the Comprehensive Spending Review @kieronjwilliams and I have written to Rishi Sunak asking for a sustainable & long term funding settlement for local govt. We are facing cuts of £26million, further crippling our ability to support our residents at this critical time.

Tonight Southwark Labour presents our 21/22 Budget, which protects the most vulnerable, invests in our young people, tackles the climate emergency, and celebrates the diversity of our Borough. Together we are building a better future for the people of Southwark #labourinpower

It's been great to be part of Giles Lury and Katy Mousinho's latest book on Wonder Women - telling the stories of so many brilliant women in marketing

The new Southwark Heritage Centre & Walworth Library is now open!

Early video from the scene of the blaze at railway arches in #ElephantCastle. We have 10 fire engines & 70 firefighters attending & have taken nearly fifty 999 calls. Please avoid the area

Delighted we will be delivering accessible, reliable, affordable (or free in the case of Free Swim & Gym) leisure services in-house. A journey we started when I was the Leisure Cabinet Member, carried on by CllrCatherineRose and now being delivered under @Alicemac83

In 2017 Peter John as Leader of the Council had the foresight to offer financial support from Southwark Council to the Central School of Ballet to bring them to Southwark. It’s amazing to have such a wonderful institution on my doorstep offering everything from beginners to professional classes

This evening I presented Southwark Labour’s 2022-23 budget. I’m so glad I don’t have to leave a note for my successor saying there is no money left and am leaving the Council with an ambitious set of new commitments for the coming year

I’ve been working on this for the past few months and excited to finally share the shortlists in the inaugural #PagefieldPressAwards. Huge amounts of talent in all categories has made it a tough challenge for the judges to pick the winners, who will be announced on 22 November

Thanks to Alastair Stewart and GB News for having me on this afternoon to talk about the challenges facing Labour and the Conservatives ahead of the next General Election

Pagefield Partner Rebecca Lury spoke to POLITICOEurope about how May's local elections give Labour an opportunity to further demonstrate its readiness for the next general election, urging the Party to continue raising the profiles of its rising stars in the Shadow Cabinet.
