This speech was in favour of a wealth tax to avoid the need to cut PIP payments to vulnerable residents within Liverpool and across the country.

I have just been out for my weekly ward round.

Reported some issues along the way and stopped to do a litter pick by Aigburth playground.

If you like satire and a tinge of absurdist Sci-fi and dislike Nigel Farage and Britain First then the very funny Count Binface is for you!

I had a great time at Hot Water Comedy Club and remember that Greenbank Powerball is having a fundraiser there soon too!

My advice surgery tonight is cancelled. Sorry about the late notice this is due to a late discharge from a medical procedure I was having today. I was discharged much later than was expected.

One thing on my list in Gteenbank Park has already been fixed 😃.

I noticed that it has become loose from its screws so I brought a screwdriver to fox it, but someone has already done it.

@friendsofgreenbankpark always on top of issues in the park, no matter how small.

Just passed Palmerston Road, really glad to see the resurfacing works going ahead!

This is testament to the tireless work of residents and the lobbying I have been putting in to Highways on their behalf.

During my ward round and while delivering a street letter to residents in Mossley Hill, I spotted this drain in Park Avenue so I stopped to clean it out with my litter picker.

Due to a fallen tree in Greenbank Park, Greenbank Road at the corner of Beechbank Road is currently inaccessible. The issue has been reported. Please avoid the area and use alternative routes where possible.

Please avoid the area if possible while the team makes the area safe and removes the tree.

For anyone that missed the subtle context of me standing next to the Christmas tree with dirty hands, here it is.

I got my hands rather dirty, planting this tree.

It was great to meet Santa today at the launch of the Greenbank Park calendar for 2025. All of the pictures have been taken by users of the park and are of the park.

For details on how to get your copy dm me.

Also, we planted a Christmas tree on Smithdown Road, fully funded by Smithdown in Bloom.

And people say politicians never get their hands dirty 😂

Context coming later.
