I love this. Making my town better WITH local people is why I love being a local councillor - and this bill from the @teamlbouruk.bsky.social AND @coopparty.party.coop Minister will make such a difference.

The path between Newland and Madley Park is being surfaced this autumn. Lighting will make it safe. Thanks to all my neighbours who helped campaign on this.

Shores Green junction in Witney is now beginning to be built, freeing our town of jams and fumes. After 20 years of campaigning this is so exciting to see!

Oxfordshire Labour & Cooperative Group budget passed!

Labour councillors delivering for Witney!

At the same time, Witney will get new express buses to Oxford in the early morning and late evening. The new S2 journeys will take around 35 minutes from Witney Market Square to Magdalen Street. Both this and the 600 are due to start operation in late February.

A new ‘orbital’ bus service starts next month, linking Redbridge Park & Ride, Oxford Science Park, Littlemore, Cowley, the JR, and Thornhill P&R, without the need to go via the city centre. The Stagecoach-operated 600 will run half-hourly, dropping down to hourly in the evening and on Sundays.

Following work by Labour councillors this year, here’s welcome news from your @teamlabouruk.bsky.social Government. Change Begins.

To be fair, @millwallfc.bsky.social were good, and we enjoyed them singing “Shit ground, three sides” 😂 1-1 a decent result and well played MOM Tyler Goodrham

On the way to see the Us against Millwall 💙💛

The water is high on Madley brook tonight but still within its banks, and Langel is still clear. Hailey Road is flooded so please don’t drive down there. Emergency services are on the scene to assist and the council control room is active. Floods further west including the Wychwoods.

Madley brook very high. Take care everyone in Witney

This is the stuff. Warm homes means better off households.

Very proud to lay a wreath on behalf of the people of Oxfordshire at Witney’s Remembrance Sunday parade. We will remember them.

Keen to hear views about how to make our markets better. We have asked traders and local shops how to build on the success of Christmas markets (Witney is 5-8 Dec by the way!) www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I choose Change and Growth with @uklabour.bsky.social

Very pleased to see this, as will all residents in Witney. Oxfordshire Labour put extra funds into our roads this year, but we need a @teamlabouruk.bsky.social government to help make a difference. Now we have got one 🌹🌹🌹

Happy Oxfordshire Day!

New jobs, cleaner air. Oxford was lucky enough to be a pilot and now we have more across the country. @teamlabouruk.bsky.social is delivering in government.

As soon as @Keir_Starmer stopped speaking, I had a call. “You’re my Labour councillor. I wanted you to know that I’ve just joined Labour. His message about care workers deserving as much respect as the Prime Minister really struck home.” Welcome to @WitneyLabourCLP John. 🌹❤️

Thanks so much to Labour friends and neighbours in the South East. I’m delighted I’ve been re-elected with the highest number of votes outside London! Also my @labtowin.bsky.social mates Parmjit, Pavitar, Sharon and Lundy have all been elected. We will serve you proudly and represent your views 🌹

Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #6,194,407!

Great day for the Helen & Douglas House Bubble Rush!

Bit damp on the doorstep tonight after a day at County Council

Bruges is a beautiful place

Great session in north #Witney today @teamlabouruk.bsky.social

Hello @teamlabouruk.bsky.social South East people - ballots are arriving in an inbox near you - please consider supporting me and my friends 🌹 #labour

Well done teachers, students and parents!

On the Tube. I rather like this in the seat back, but what does it mean? First guess: it doesn’t mean anything, not everything has to mean something.

Just a beginning, hope to add more soon. go.bsky.app/ACJUPfL
