I'm grateful for the chance Afzal gave me, for the opportunity to work on some important subjects, work with the constituents of Gorton and recently Rusholme, and for all the colleagues I've had over that time.

But time for a new challenge, and a new badge.

Its an exciting new challenge, but its a tough decision to leave. Its been a rollercoaster few years (including 2 general elections, a global pandemic, Brexit, international conflicts).

I think you are on @lewisatkinson.bsky.social’s which is where I found you!
