    Hi Ben 👋🏻 few things: •Watford isn’t London (picture included for you) •I qualified as a lawyer but never practiced as I wanted to concentrate on one job at a time. •I’ve lived in Nottinghamshire for more than a decade and chair your local NHS Hospital Trust. Chat soon.

    So Labour have picked a former London MP Lawyer as their East Midlands Mayoral Candidate... Stereotype much? Apparently London lawyering is now a formal requirement of Labour selection absolutely everywhere👍

    What an evening to be in the same room as our next Prime Minster @Keir_Starmer, as the former PM resigns! It’s time to end this Tory soap opera and bring in a Labour government 🌹

    Across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire there are: 🌹 20 Labour MPs 🌳1 Conservative MP ➡️ 1 Reform MP I want to work with people that share the ambition to make our region the best in can be. On Tuesday, I will take that message to @Keir_Starmer and championing our region.

    It was an honour to represent the villages, towns and cities of our region at Number 10 today. I wholeheartedly welcome @Keir_Starmer and @AngelaRayner’s commitment to giving our region more powers and resources to truly transform Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.

    Imagine being so desperate that you have to lie on your leaflets (about me and himself). Ben knows I’ve lived in North Nottinghamshire for over a decade because I lead his local hospitals, and was serving the people of Mansfield whilst he was at university. Do better.

    @BBradley_Mans thanks for this missive dropping through the letter box this am. At least it's prompted me to understand the shadowy figure is @ClaireWard4EM . I really hope this isn't setting the tone for the campaign ahead as this distinctly doesn't win my vote !

    Yesterday, the Prime Minister and Leader of Nottinghamshire County Council were too busy electioneering instead of visiting flood victims who have lost everything. Classic Tory behaviour: telling people they care but doing nothing to actually help.

    ‘Where was he, with his green Wellington boots going out and actually talking to the people who are directly affected?’ @NickFerrariLBC questions why the PM hasn’t reached out to those affected by Storm Henk flooding when he was 15 miles away from the worst affected areas.

    A busy, productive and fun morning over the border in the West Midlands with Labour colleagues. It’s really encouraging to know that @Keir_Starmer, @RachelReevesMP and @AngelaRayner want Mayors to take the lead when it comes to delivering growth for all parts of our country.
