Sensationalist headline, but Andrewโ€™s reasoning is spot on as always.

The damage we did to ourselves with Brexit will outlast all those that voted for it, leaving future generations poorer, both financially and culturally.

Peabody are selling social homes in Potters Bar to the highest bidder.

Iโ€™m calling on them to stop the sales & work with Hertsmere Council to keep these homes in public use. Anything less is a betrayal of their social purpose.

Lovely to have been able to join our valued friends and partners at Borehamwood Mosque and a real privilege to address the community at Jummah prayers today.

Inspiring to join these talented Elstree Screen Arts Academy students at Elstree Studios today. They're working on a special project for the centenary celebrations of the iconic, council owned studios. The Academy is central to the skills & training agenda that is so vital to the screen arts sector

Labour is building the homes that our families in Hersmere need - putting the dream of home ownership back in reach. Thatโ€™s the difference you get with Labour in power.

Happy New Year from everyone at Hertsmere Labour!
I am sitting here listening to James Cleverly on @lbc.co.uk commiserating with cancer patients treated appallingly by their employers in drop jaw disbelief. He knows that workers rights erosion & the fact that the NHS is on its knees happened on his watch, right?

The hypocrisy is astounding.
This yearโ€™s Doctor Who Christmas special is absolutely fantastic. Charming, funny and full of character.

I adore a Steven Moffat Christmas script.

This evening I attended the UKCypriotFed briefing following Starmer's recent visit to Cyprus.

Discussions around the future of the island and the role it has to play in the wider stability of the region were brought forward.

I look forward to continued negotiations.

The Leader of the Opposition going heavy on immigration when it was her party that lost control of our borders is an odd tactic.
