Heroes don’t have to wear capes ❤️ www.bbc.com/news/article... Very upsetting at how much hate / evil still exists in the world for this to happen at all 😞 Thoughts and prayers with the victims and their families.

Out on #labourdoorstep chatting to residents in Higham Hill & listening to concerns and feedback 👍🏾

Proud that a Labour Government has scrapped this cruel, inhumane policy that the IFS estimates will lift 600,000 children out of poverty. Governments have to do the right moral thing, show leadership and not just blindly follow opinion polls of public opinion.

Zohran Mamdani: "I am Muslim. I am a democratic-socialist. And most damning of all, I refuse to apologize for any of this."

New Yorkers elected Zohran Mamdani, a left-wing Democrat and frequent target of Donald Trump's fury, to be the city's next Mayor.

The new mayor of New York hit the ground running — and he aimed squarely at the US president.

Such ugly efforts to stop Mamdani winning - the level of anti-Muslim bigotry thrown around during the campaign should not be forgotten

Turnout in the NYC mayoral election is the highest since 1993.

Democrats come back ❤️

Great weekend on #labourdoorstep helping colleagues in Leytonstone with Bridget Phillipson & in Higham Hill after a productive catchup with our local police team at Higham Hill Park Cafe on Saturday👍🏾🌹I had a soya latte 👌

For many years I have supported the call to recognise Palestine as a state, as part of a two state solution alongside the state of Israel. Now more than ever standing for Palestine’s existence matters as part of securing an end to the horrors of Gaza. 1/4

Great cuppa with a councillor session today in Higham Hill 🌹👍🏾 @kira.social @wflabour.bsky.social

The UK must immediately recognise Palestinian statehood. There can be no two state solution if there is no viable state left to call Palestine.

It has been a great week speaking to residents on #labourdoorstep in Higham Hill with @kira.social & supporting our Council motion on prioritising play for children in Waltham Forest. Our family hubs & community groups in Higham Hill do amazing work to encourage play. @wflabour.bsky.social

The public vote better bring some sanity to this table ie putting Sweden up #eurovision

.... Italy had an animated mouse give their points. Magnificent. #Eurovision

How is Austria leading in judges vote 😂 #eurovision juries all over the place

The UK is on the left side of the board. Europe, are you OK? #Eurovision

Ok. Sweden has absolutely nailed it. All the right amount of Eurovision kitsch and earworm. #Eurovision #Sauna

love everything about this 😂 #Eurovision

Thank you Malta for reminding us it’s #eurovision ❤️

It’s definitely a powerful performance from Austria #eurovision

First time offering thoughts on #eurovision on Bluesky- coffee song was inspired…

Our Labour Leader Grace Williams and fellow Co-Chair of the Waltham Forest Borough of Sanctuary, Averil Pooten-Watan have written a letter to the Home Secretary which you can read below 👇 www.walthamforest.gov.uk/stories/lett...

Out doing #labourdoorstep in our own ward, Higham Hill, as well as helping Chapel End today 🌹💪🏾

If Reform can’t competently fill out a council nomination form or know which ward to stand in then imagine what they would be like in local Govt as your local councillor. Vote 🌹 Labour in May - not only are we experienced in filling out nominations forms but we work hard for our local residents too.

As the holy month of Ramadan comes to an end, I’d like to send my warmest wishes to everyone celebrating Eid in London and around the world.

To all whom celebrate in Walthamstow and beyond, Eid Mubarak from myself and my team!

You probably read this weekend the government was watering down the workers rights bill. Having looked at the amendments, there’s no weakening of anything, in most cases it’s been toughened up. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

At a time when so many wish to divide us and demean us, I feel proud to live in a locality that delights in its diversity and the different cultures, religions and communities that brings to us- I say to all those about to begin observing Ramadan Muhbarak!

It def needs it, haven’t gone there for years due to it being over packed (plus I can get the same stuff nearby in Westfield)

Starmer and his team are geniuses…

Weekend of #Labourdoorstep 🌹 and delivering our latest @wflabour.bsky.social newsletter to Higham Hill residents 👍🏾 Also did over 19k steps 💪🏾👌🙂

Keir Starmer's call with President Zelenskyy tonight -

Finished #cobrakai and like the way they ended it. I’m sure they could get away with spin offs and the iron dragon characters could be one of them.

this was definitely a new low for Kemi Badenoch at PMQs yesterday - via Tom Peck in Times
