Great session out in Woolston this morning. Over 2000 leaflets delivered talking about the great work Labour is doing in Southampton - £20m funding for Weston, renters rights, action on cost of living, protections for leaseholders.

And yet, nobody can tell me what any of this means. The same tired stuff about “movements” that has been trotted out by Compass since 2004. The Caerphilly result was obviously terrible, but what is Mainstream’s prescription? Andy Burnham and proportional representation?

We will be wiped out in Wales next May without a major reset.

Desperately sad to hear about Diane Keaton's death. Her role as Louise Bryant in Reds is one of my favourite performances of all time, from one of my favourite movies of all time.

It really is maddening having to use Microsoft Edge for work and the launch page is a series of Daily Express articles saying something like KEIR STARMER SLAMMED FOR MIGRANT FAILURES and you click on it and it’s Jonathan Gullis on GB News.

I am a prophet.
Reform’s entire mantra will come unstuck the moment they’re confronted with political reality - councils with no money, surging demand for statutory services. No EDI or climate change officers, where they even exist, will plug the gap. They’ll all fall out with each other once this dawns on them.

A great facility for the city.
Really pleased to tour the exceptional new South of England Rehabilitation Centre at Western Community Hospital yesterday.
Totally blown away by the design of this beautiful new facility, run by @hiowhnhsft.bsky.social, with four rehab wards under one roof.
Thanks for having me! 💙

If Lloyds and Halifax close this summer, that's the end of high street banking on the eastern side of Southampton.
Back Darren's campaign to bring a banking hub to Bitterne, and save high street banking for local people and businesses.

Glorious day yesterday out and about. Talking to residents in Harefield and delivering the Spring 25 Edition of Itchen Connects, followed by a street stall in the afternoon campaigning for a banking hub to be brought to Bitterne precinct.

We build programs like national child care, dental care, and health care because we believe in looking out for each other.
That’s worth fighting for.

Good to be out in Golden Grove with local councillors delivering our latest edition of Itchen Connects and taking to residents about local issues. Do get in touch with your Itchen Labour Team if you have anything you want to raise.

Yesterday, Darren held his first community coffee morning, focused on anti-social behaviour in the Polygon. Residents were open in their frustrations, but fair and constructive. Thanks to @christielambert.bsky.social, Polygon ward cllrs, local police team and Society of St James for your leadership.

Good session in Woolston talking to residents. In particular, a formerly Tory voting veteran mentioned how much he appreciated Keir Starmer’s leadership on Ukraine.

Good to be out in the Bitterne at the weekend. Lots of issues raised on speeding, parking and enforcement. Unfortunately with three invisible Tory councillors, these issues get ignored. Good to see our Labour MP taking action instead.

Back out on the doors for 2025 with the MP, local councillors and the local team. Helpful conversations about planning issues. We’re out and about every week talking to residents about the issues that matter to them.

Just a reminder that opinion polls in 1981 said Michael Foot would be Prime Minister and in 1982 that the SDP-Liberal Alliance would win a 250 seat majority.
