On Armed Forces Day, we pay tribute to those who have given everything to keep our country safe - and those who continue to protect it today. It was an honour to represent Manchester City Council at the Armed Forces Day event this morning.

So it turns out the massive scandal here is that Bridget Phillipson's mum bought a council house for £9k in 1990 and then sold it *33 years* later for £99k. That's the entire story

Day 2 and it’s been a great day. Must admit I’m looking forward to it being a little bit cooler tomorrow 🌞

It might be hot outside but the rent is freezing.

Sneaking a giant screen into the flagshagger march is one of the funniest things @ledbydonkeys.org have ever done. "STAY HYDRATED" 😂🤣😂

It was great to meet trustees, volunteers and organisations at the opening of the new Newham Community Law Project. This has been a long time coming and I know for my constituents that having specialist support based in our community will make a huge difference.

Important thread from @danneidle.bsky.social. This isn't just about council tax - this is about trust in politicians. Polanski needs to come clean.

I recently sat on the judging panel of the Newham final of the Jack Petchey Speak Out Challenge. I listened to fourteen incredible speeches delivered by students from across the borough. I wish our winner all the best for the grand final - do it for Newham!

Escaped the politics for a few hours & hit the #Chilterns. #Studham was stunning — blossom everywhere, Red Kites overhead, a really tiny muntjac, even distant zoo animals. Ended with a well‑earned pint. Days like this matter johnslabourblog.org/2026/05/stud... #walks

April was a very busy month with 699 cases resolved for people living in West Ham and Beckton. Housing, immigration, crime and cleaning up our streets. We have advocated for constituents on a range of issues.

Great news for renters.
