💜🐝Fellow Co-operative members in the North West, North East & Cumbria and Yorkshire and Humber Regions, I’m pleased to say that I’m running for the NEC England North seat. The ballots will be dropping very soon and I’d be delighted if you considered voting for me.

Nancy is two and I bought rubbish butter for the icing… gave me the opportunity to do this. Her party cake will be better I promise 🤣😂

Thanks @scottbrerton.bsky.social for highlighting Reforms intentions. We hoped fracking was a thing of the past here in Lancashire… clearly Reform UK didn’t think we were loud enough in our opposition previously!

I distinctly remember being taught about Ernest Marsden at school and felt it so important that we honour him. A fantastic role model for young scientists growing up Rishton! 👩‍🔬🧑‍🔬 “We aren’t just old mills and canals but renowned Scientists too” www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/news/2535844...

‘The Veil’ - not sure I’ll get passed episode one due to that accent and the chain smoking. 🤣😂🤣 why is everyone smoking all the time and if you aren’t smoking your complaining about the smoking. Is it part of the plot?? Or was the writer quitting smoking while writing this?

💔💔💔 A very special and brave young lady. www.justgiving.com/campaign/luc...

Come to Lytham for a lovely day out and to see Alanis Morrisette and the wind and rain sets in and it gets cancelled 😭😭😭😭 Absolutely devastated!

A very welcome review but I am concerned with the initial omission of breastfeeding being a prevalent factor in the review. Every mother should be empowered to breastfeed for 12 months without the threat of financial repercussions. www.gov.uk/government/n...

Hi Welsh Labour Conference 👋🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🌹

Can’t remember the sun ever shining on my birthday before but, by gum, it must have been saving it for this birthday. ☀️🌅

Happy Fathers Day to my husband , thanks for the kids, and to my own Dad! ❤️

Never before has one picture highlighted to me how much better off the world would be if we all worked together, shared technologies and solutions, and basically stopped being awkward. One world. One adapter. 🌍

My fastest donation yet! 🙌🏻🩸🅱️➖ www.blood.co.uk Give if you can ❤️

Really excited for this!

What the hell just happened… absolutely robbed. I loved the UKs entry deffo top three. #eurovision #remembermonday

Italy having ‘Andy’ o. His boot. 😭😭 Extra point. #eurovision

Top marks for UK 🇬🇧 Love that song!! #eurovision

VE Celebrations at my church last night. Sung a few tunes for the guests. Absolutely loved the vintage vehicles and bell peals 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

Life might be a bit horrific at the minute but at least I still have fiction. ❤️

Bit angrier today. Quite enjoying explaining to Reform Voters why they were wrong and correcting all the lies they’ve believed.

Hi, Blackburn Rovers fans, my five year old wears a Liverpool Kit but he’s still impressionable! 😂🤣

Sorry.

And we are done! It’s been a hard couple of months out there on the doors but couldn’t ask for a better group of people around me! If I don’t get over the line I just hope we get @noordad.bsky.social over to continue his good work! ❤️

Great response in Clayton-le-Moors tonight for @noordad.bsky.social and @katewalsh1990.bsky.social 🌹🌹 #VoteLabour #labourdoorstep

Best of luck to all local residents running in todays Marathons but an extra special bit of luck to my Dad just starting his 10th Marathon (which he claims is his last)! Kids excited to meet him at the finish line! www.justgiving.com/page/craig-h...

All the horrific posts I see everyday on socials and Meta just removed one of mine for talking about taking cold and flu medicine. Makes you wonder doesn’t it?

📣 Planning Passed Unanimously 📣 Really pleased that planning passed unanimously for M&S Foodhall at Frontier Park. I spoke at the committee in favour of the development. The economic benefits include retention of the staff currently working at the Blackburn store which is set to close.

Was an absolute privilege to attend the Chrism Mass this evening in Blackpool where Arthur was serving. Beautiful service.

Lovely Palm Sunday services including a procession led by a ‘Donkey’ (it’s a small horse but don’t tell the kids 😂)

Great to get out for @noordad.bsky.social and @katewalsh1990.bsky.social last night with @jodi-clements.bsky.social #labourdoorstep

Great to get out with @noordad.bsky.social and @katewalsh1990.bsky.social in support of their Lancashire County Council campaign. Don't forget, in the Great Harwood, Rishton, Clayton and Altham division you have TWO votes 🌹🌹 @melissafisher.bsky.social @ethanrawcliffe.bsky.social

Two days wandering about in the sunshine ☀️ I’ve never been so tired 😂 I swear the school holidays get harder everytime.

📣📣Campaign Session📣📣 Calling all members, we will be joining our Executive Committee Member Stephen Tawiah on the campaign trail this Wednesday. Please let us know if you can make it!

What do you hate most about parenting young children? Knock Knock jokes. Seriously. These can go on for hours!!

My boys have waited MONTHS for this film 😂🤣😂 loved it and even had a sneaky tea in Turtle Bay afterwards! Now to listen to them talk about Minecraft for days ⛏️⛏️⛏️

Pleased to Propose a motion on SEND Provision at full Council last night. The motion was passed WITHOUT support from the Conservative group. Thank you to all my colleagues who supported the motion by speaking so passionately about the issues that are a reality for families.

48 hours after finishing Adolescence and still being reduced to tears every couple of hours over it… this evening walked into the boys room and look what Teddy he’s cuddling! 🥲🥲🥲

Fantastic evening at Picture Hyndburn. The boys particularly enjoyed the open top bus ride!

Our first of many trips to one our our local nature reserves now the weather is getting warmer… and yes my 5yo did carry a wildlife magazine around with him. 😂❤️

Serious question: is there a way to stop those ridiculous AI videos appearing on your reels cus it’s actually putting me off social media. 😂🤣

Spent hours outside this weekend before ‘second winter’ descends. Incredibly lucky to have all this on our doorstep.

💜😉 Keep going, Girls.

Just seen another terrible Daily Mail article with a picture of Millie Bobby Brown with the head like “Why Gen Z are aging badly?” Just for comparison, here is 21 year old me wondering why I never got asked for ID. Obsessed with criticising young people!

Wishing Christians a holy and blessed Lent as we received the ashes today and begin our Lenten journey. I am a proud Christian and wore my ashes all day as a sign of faith. I’ve decided to give up bread for Lent so on Easter Day I’ll be hoping that the Easter Bunny brings me a big baguette.

Last night I went to bed feeling a little bit rubbish. Today’s a bit better.

Anyone else in a full blown panic that they’ve been locked out of all their Microsoft accounts and not letting you enter your password. 😂🤣😂🤣

My biggest achievement as a parent (so far) was encouraging reading. Arthur is seven and reads everyday for pleasure. It gives him so much joy. 🥹 ❤️ May he always love reading and may his imagination continue to flourish.

Is it me or are the Daily Mail just publishing conspiracy theories now and passing it off at journalism? Dangerous and unethical.

Closes this Friday!

One of my oldest friends just dropped this off for me! So excited to read it! I don’t even think I could read in 1997… well… not a newspaper anyway.
