Braved the cold this afternoon and had some really meaningful conversations with residents in Ebbsfleet Green at our mobile surgery. Picked up casework that I’ll be following up on, and genuinely appreciated everyone who paused to speak with us.

@coopparty.party.coop Future Co-op #Economy #policy sets out a bold vision: as #AI transforms work, Britain must choose democracy over exploitation by backing worker- and community-owned tech. A fairer future isn’t built by accident, it’s built by co-operatives. #CommunityBritain

My takeaway from @coopparty.party.coop conference!
We choose Community Britain! As @paulnowaktuc.bsky.social said, we choose cooperation not conflict! At a time of deep political apathy and division we need this more than ever.

My question to @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social at the @coopparty.party.coop conference:
Will the government step up communication on the benefits of local government restructuring? She acknowledged they must.

The Kent & Medway Fire and Rescue Authority has been left unable to function after the suspension of several #Reform members, including its chair and vice-chair.
This matters for all of us in #Kent. Without a functioning Authority, key decisions on budgets, safety, and planning are on hold.

In these times of rancour & division, it’s comforting to find things on which we can all agree: Kent County Council, for example, really does provide a perfect illustration of how well Reform would run the country. I agree with Nigel!

Last night I brought two motions to the General Assembly of the Council to strengthen and unify our community. 💪🏾
Both motions reaffirm Dartford’s identity as a proud multicultural borough where everyone should feel safe, valued and respected.

I hope #TrumpTariffs supporters understand that these #tariffs are based on “the ratio of a country’s goods #trade #deficit with the #US to that country’s exports to the US.” Essentially, the bigger the #tradedeficit—adjusted for imports—the higher the tariffs.

As #DebtAwarenessWeek begins, the focus is on breaking the stigma around debt and encouraging everyone to seek the support they deserve. Debt can impact many aspects of life, including mental health—but help is available, and taking the first step is a sign of strength. (1/2)

Joined the #KentPoliticsShow to emphasise that communities like #Ebbsfleet need #infrastructure delivered on time, not years later. Management company fees must also be regulated to prevent residents from facing unexpected, high and poorly administered charges annually!

The new year brings with it navigating proposal set out in #EnglishDevolutionWhitePaper, to simplify the costly and confusing multi-tiered council systems across the country.

The British weather may have done its best to dampen spirits this weekend, but it didn’t stop the magic of the #Ebbsfleet #Christmas #Fair! It was wonderful to see the community come together, enjoying the festive stalls, delicious treats, and the heartwarming holiday atmosphere.

So proud to have stood to represent my home Swanscombe and Greenhithe Division in the Kent County Council by-election. It has been an absolute pleasure meeting so many residents and listening to their priorities!
This is not the end! The work for the 2025 local elections starts now!
