The Purim x Pokémon 30th anniversary crossover event you didn't know you needed. "Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light! Surrender now or prepare to fight" And yes, I captured a child dressed as Pikachu at synagogue tonight. Chag Purim Sameach! ✡️

Happy Holi to everyone celebrating! It was a joy to be invited to join the Indian British Group of Warrington today in Woolston to take part in celebrations for the festival - full of colour, dancing, music, fantastic cultural presentations from the children & of course some excellent food too! 🇬🇧🇮🇳

Officially a #NorthRoadSurvivor! St Helen's 10K completed, with a PB in the bag for good measure, this morning as part of my training for the London Marathon for the Warrington Wolves Foundation All donations gratefully received here: warringtonwolvesfoundation.enthuse.com/cf/charlotte... 🐺🏅🏃‍♀️

Disability Football is one of the community initiatives my London Marathon fundraising helps to support, so as it's payday weekend, if you can chip in a few quid the link is here: warringtonwolvesfoundation.enthuse.com/cf/charlotte...

Can't feel my hands after a two hour session in the freezing rain with the Warrington Wolves Foundation Disability Football juniors and then open age this morning down at Padgate Academy, but as you can tell from the smile on my face, I loved every minute! ⚽🐺

This result shows people want something different from the same old. We need to listen and act. At our best Labour is a voice for change, progress and hope but importantly, we deliver it. Labour can be a progressive force for good in every community. We need to prove ourselves like never before.

The message from Gorton and Denton is clear: Labour needs a fundamental reset.

Took a detour on the way home from Westminster via Gorton and Denton for the polling day GOTV final push. Wet and grey weather, but the vibes were good with lots of doors knocked fuelled by campaign office samosas! Two hours til polls close, keeping everything crossed for the amazing Angeliki! 🌹🗳️❤️

Fun fact: video gaming as a sector is worth more to the UK economy every year than the music and film industries combined in GVA. Maybe it's not your thing, cool, whatever, but you definitely still benefit from the fact other people enjoy it as much as they do and being a snob about it is passé 🤷‍♀️

Reform planning on going into the next election promising to: - scrap sick pay for low earners - allow workers shifts to be cancelled with no notice - ensure tenants can be evicted from a home near their children’s schools without any reason

All the events to look forward to in Warrington town centre this year

What better way to spend a day off than pitching in for the campaign effort to get the amazing Angeliki Stogia elected in Gorton & Denton! I went out on three door-knocking rounds in Denton this afternoon and the returns were positive, but the only poll that counts is polling day on Thursday! 🗳️🌹

Another Saturday morning, another Warrington Parkrun and I'm set for my first Milestone Club milestone on my next one! 🏃‍♀️

Leaving my office for the day after some extra Recess casework surgeries, and an opportunity to get on top of admin with the added time with my constituency team this week! If you'd like a surgery appointment, drop me an email to [email protected] to get booked in ☕

Do NOT miss this dog's photo-finish snapshot in the replies.

I am, once again, banging my head against a wall and begging for MP staffing budgets to actually reflect the *thousands* of items of increasingly complex casework and correspondence that come through our offices every month so we can actually give our constituents the service they deserve.

Imagine being one of Reform's 8 MPs and not being invited into a cabinet that lacks a health, defence or foreign affairs shadow

Reform claim to be a new party offering something different, but it's clear that they're just the Tories in turquoise - more of the same politics that broke Britain and none of the answers for how to fix it! www.warrington-worldwide.co.uk/2026/02/16/r...

The Reform candidate in Gorton and Denton is backed by Tommy Robinson. His campaign team includes those with extreme, racist views. My letter calling on Matthew Goodwin to reject their support. 👇🏻

恭喜發財 from Warrington's Lunar New Year celebrations organised by Warrington Hongkongers. As we begin the Year of the Horse - which signals momentum, bold action, and reinvention - may we all experience a year of blessings, fresh opportunities, personal growth and happiness! 新年快樂

Battersea Parkrun followed by the Battersea Park 10K this morning, as who needs Valentine's Day when you have marathon training to do for the Warrington Wolves Foundation? If you can chip in towards my fundraising I'll love you forever ❤️ warringtonwolvesfoundation.enthuse.com/cf/charlotte...

Standing up to the far right is good, actually

The UK Parliament needs to move to a more central location. I think Eileen Bilton could help.

Almost like... if we listened to women (both the victims, and also the senior women in the Government who could see from a mile off the inevitability of how the decision to appoint Mandelson - despite what we *already knew* at that point - would all pan out), we wouldn't be here.

Not really thinking of this as preventing “further embarrassment,” more like one step closer to justice for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and the true extent of the monstrosities he enabled.

BREAKING: Angeliki Stogia announced as Labour candidate for the Gorton and Denton by-election

Another Warrington Parkrun in the bag, and some news 👀 I'm running the London Marathon in April for the amazing Warrington Wolves Foundation to support their work on disability sport, mental health, SEND and older people in our community! warringtonwolvesfoundation.enthuse.com/cf/charlotte...

As the fifth anniversary of the #BNO scheme draws near, we thank @sarahhall-labour.bsky.social and @charlotte2153.bsky.social for your support towards BNO Hong Kongers. The 🇬🇧 government must ensure BNOs remain unaffected by the new ILR rules. #StandByBNOs #BNOsWelcome #NoBrokenPromises

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day, which marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp. It is an opportunity for us to reflect on where prejudice and hatred left unchallenged ultimately leads, and to renew our commitment to building a better, safer future.

This one was close to home for me, literally. A feature trip to where I grew up: Warrington is a model town, the @centreforcities.bsky.social says today. If its economic performance was replicated nationwide, the avg UK urban resident would be £3,200 better off: www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Warrington is in fact very sexy 😉💅 And we have the highest total economic growth of any city or large town since 2013 (and faster growth in living standards and disposable incomes too), as a model for how the rest of the country can be as sexy as us!

Worth remembering when looking at the horrific scenes in the US right now that both Reform and the Tories have pledged to bring in ICE-style organisations to the UK if they win power

Local party members in Gorton and Denton must have the opportunity to select the strongest possible Labour candidate to take on Reform, and I hope the NEC take the decision to give Andy the chance to make his case to them without any procedural shenanigans to limit their choices.

With almost 8000 jobs, and growing, in civil nuclear in Warrington North it's been amazing to be part of the biggest and best Nuclear Week in Parliament yet! Read more on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/posts/charlo... Or on Facebook: www.facebook.com/share/p/1CxS...

I know @charlotte2153.bsky.social has done work in this area. A welcome change.

A statement ahead of Monday’s debate in the Commons on the Hillsborough Law.

First Warrington Parkrun of the new year in the bag, with 613 fellow runners, all the volunteer legends who make it happen and a couple of kiddos who turned up with some very cute signs to cheer us all on - thank you to you all for a little pocket of Saturday morning joy! 😌❤️

67% of Reform MPs have previously been elected as representatives of the Conservative Party. They broke the country last time; do you trust them to fix it?

I stand with Ian Byrne on this. The government must fulfil its promise to introduce the full Hillsborough law. No half measures.

Tbf it's not as if he's ever tried to pretend to have any shame or dignity.

I've been on the Radio 4's The World at One making this exact point today, and will be raising in the statement later today. The era of the Government prioritising X for comms is failing by any metric in getting our message out, but this should be a clear red line in and of itself. It's time to go.

Fantastic to join North Cheshire CAMRA members for their regional meeting today at The Albion, and to have a full and frank conversation with them about the current crisis facing pubs and work taking place to get the sector on a stable footing.

What has Labour ever done for us!? Charlotte Nichols column

Found out that Warrington Parkrun was cancelled this morning on arrival which was good news for two reasons: 1) the absolutely correct decision because it's Baltic out and there's black ice everywhere, and 2) we get to be smug about *intending to run it* without actually *having to run it* 😂

You can’t condemn exploitation with one hand while cashing cheques with the other. If X profits from harm, taking payment is a moral choice. Will Reform UK MPs return the money? The public deserves to know. 6/6

It has become increasingly clear that X - a platform now actively producing explicit and abusive material against women and children - is not an appropriate platform to be using for our comms. I will keep pushing for action from the govt & relevant authorities in this area.

It's now unconscionable for the government to be posting on X. X is not a neutral utility, it is far, far darker: an environment that shapes behaviour, rewards cruelty, and normalises abuse. @theleaduk.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/theleadu...

A huge congratulations to Warrington's own Luke Littler, retaining his PDC World Championship title and in absolutely sensational style! What a start to 2026 for the 18 year old 🎯🏆☢️

There is, to my mind, no justification for the continued use by the UK Government of X as a platform for official comms. There hasn't been for some time, in fact, but if the latest developments around AI-generated image abuse and CSAM don't change the policy I really don't know what will.

Here’s to 2026
