We're really excited to welcome local resident Luke Murrow as the Labour Party candidate for Crossgates, Swarcliffe and Whinmoor!
After many dedicated years, Cllr Pauleen Grahame has decided to retire, and we hope the community will back Luke to join our team at the May '26 local elections 🌹

Very emotional and proud heading into my final week as Cabinet member for Housing at LCC - so much has been achieved by these incredible teams, and it's been an honour to be part of the city's leadership for the last few years. Excited about what happens next 🏘️🌱🙌

It's "neighbourhood produce" season, truly my favourite time of year. These big beans made us an amazing pasta for lunch! 🫛

A letter to David Lammy from @leeds-labour.bsky.social
The forced starvation and targeted murder of Gazan civilians is beyond deplorable, and the UK government must act immediately to uphold international law and stop the barbarous assaults, as well as ceasing all exports of F-35 components.

At the launch of the National Women’s Rough Sleeping Census Report — homelessness and VWAG are deeply linked. Women often avoid services because they don’t feel safe, staying hidden on the streets, or further at risk elsewhere. This needs urgent, targeted action in govt's homelessness strategy.
