Thinking of all the veterans across the country, including the 1000 plus in Lewisham North, who have previously served in the UK armed forces.

Today, we honour their courage and sacrifice.

I know first-hand just how much Millwall FC does for our local community. That’s why I’m pleased to be supporting the #EFLWeekOfAction, which celebrates EFL clubs and their charities' work. ⚽

Here's a picture of me at Millwall in 2016 - a year after I was first elected!

570,000 more families in London will receive £150m off their energy bills this winter.

Brilliant that Labour is expanding the Warm Home Discount to provide vital cost of living support for low-income households and pensioners across the country.

Enjoyed my first Culture, Media & Sport Select Committee oral evidence session on protecting built heritage today.

I was pleased to be able to get in a reference to the decarbonisation works at The Hermitage in Blackheath, which I visited a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks to Gordon and the team from Music Room London for inviting me to look round their rehearsal and venue space in New Cross. It was interesting to hear about the challenges faced by inner city grassroots music venues, but it's great to have such a cool place on our doorstep!

Well done to Wes Streeting & those who campaigned for this recognition. Millions who are too often dismissed will get the care they need.

I always enjoy visiting local schools, so it was a real pleasure to spend time with the pupils at St James Hatcham in New Cross last week.

I was treated to some brilliant singing, dancing & debating, plus important updates on their school projects.

Thank you Ms McFarlane & team for welcoming me!

Wishing everyone a beautiful festival of light! 🌟

Special #Deepawali evening at the Everest Inn - full of food (my fave momos), friends & chats with the Nepalese Ambassador to the UK.

Deepawali celebrates kindness, service & unity - this is what Lewisham North is all about.

Powerful video by Transport for London (TfL) for #NationalHateCrimeAwarenessWeek. 🚆

If you witness hate, abuse, or harassment while travelling, don’t look away - step in (if safe), distract, support and "act like a friend." 🫂

Spread the word: hate has no place in London.
