We have been shortlisted for four #RegionalPressAwards leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester…
@leicslive @RegPressAwards Also so so chuffed to see @HRichardsonLDR nominated not once, but twice for two categories. Incredibly well-deserved and provided a real voice to the people and politics of Leicester.
The City Mayor has accused the Home Sec of 'either ignorance or malice' over her comments leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester…
One of my more interesting LDR days outs...
Deadline Friday for those who could be affected by Hinckley Rail Freight Interchange plans to register with the Planning Inspector to have their say. Areas like Narborough could be affected if more freight trains use the line, closing the local level crossing for longer:
Acts including Busted. Deacon Blue, James Blunt, Texas already announced and more to come leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester…

Yesterday was a long day at the Leicester city election count. I was able to share a table with and am very grateful to, the hard working, @HRichardsonLDR
Big shout out to the exceptional local journalism that has kept us all informed from our local counts. Special mention to @HRichardsonLDR who has kept me up to date in Leicester! #supportlocaljournalism

And that is that! Labour holds its majority with 31 seats, Conservatives form the main opposition with 17 seats, the Lib Dems have 3 and the Greens also have 3 @leicslive
Last but not least, North Evington! And the day ends on a high for the Conservatives: Dilip Joshi Conservative 3944 votes ELECTED Rilesh Mahesh Conservative 3863 votes ELECTED Sanjay Modhwadia Conservative 3910 votes ELECTED @leicslive
Not sure what the hold up is here for the last result, speculation in the press section is we’ve gone to a recount in North Evington @leicslive
Just a reminder, in 2019 Labour won 53 of the 54 council seats. They will still come out of this with a majority, but there will be a decent sized opposition after today’s results @leicslive
Disappointed but still determined. Rita Patel said she will always be there for those who need a helping hand
Belgrave goes blue too, the Tories certainly have cause for celebration tonight: Shital Adatia Conservative 4409 votes ELECTED Yogesh Chauhan Conservative 4424 votes ELECTED Jaiantilal Gopal Conservative 4335 votes ELECTED
Two to go people, we’re very very close. Belgrave is next word in the hall suggests. Cheers started already but who from is the question @leicslive
Starting to empty out here, but we’re not done yet. Rushey Mead is next, one of the seats is currently held by independent mayoral candidate Rita Patel. Will she keep it?

Not a winner but being shortlisted still goes down as a major career achievement ✊
In old foggy Laaaaandon town today for the @RegPressAwards where I'm very proud to have been shortlisted for specialist journalist of the year
This time next month I shall be joining the online team at @bbcmtd, based in Birmingham. Five years ago I never thought I'd be doing my dream job, let alone for the BBC. Grateful for all the stories I've told and really excited for the ones yet to come ✍🏾🤌🏾😲
@leicslive @RegPressAwards @HRichardsonLDR Not to mention @leicslive getting shortlisted for the Reporting Communities award, too. @sali_shobowale in particular has made the role her own and provides voices to the diverse communities of Leicester - with the rest of the newsroom also working hard to ensure the same.
Delighted to say I'm part of the @leicslive team shortlisted at the @RegPressAwards for our coverage of the Mahek Bukhari murder trial last year. It was an incredible team effort which culminated in an emotional final day at Leicester Crown Court. theregionalpressawards.com/finalists/leic…
@leicslive @RegPressAwards Also so so chuffed to see @HRichardsonLDR nominated not once, but twice for two categories. Incredibly well-deserved and provided a real voice to the people and politics of Leicester.
My analysis piece here on local government finance and the situation in Derby has generated more than 12,000 page views and attracted more than 100 comments. #LDReporter derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/derby-new…
So, I’ve made a big decision. After many years and many different roles at @leicslive, today I am saying farewell to the newsroom. I’ve had some brilliant experiences and met some wonderful people, but now feels like the right time for me to move on to pastures new.
🚨Bit of a life update… after a brilliant year covering all things politics @leicslive. I have moved to the big smoke and started a comms role @ukhomeoffice. Excited for what’s to come…. (Haven’t any photos, so here’s one of a retro Guinness glass)
So pleased to see the defunct docking station Queens Road replaced with #disabled friendlier hoops. Thank you for help sorting and highlighting @Pat_Kitterick @HRichardsonLDR @ClarryPark
I’ve agreed to join a women’s welfare group which has been very close to my heart for years. I’m looking to help them and other groups get their stories out there. Wish me luck etc.
Yesterday was a long day at the Leicester city election count. I was able to share a table with and am very grateful to, the hard working, @HRichardsonLDR
Big shout out to the exceptional local journalism that has kept us all informed from our local counts. Special mention to @HRichardsonLDR who has kept me up to date in Leicester! #supportlocaljournalism
And that is that! Labour holds its majority with 31 seats, Conservatives form the main opposition with 17 seats, the Lib Dems have 3 and the Greens also have 3 @leicslive
On @BBCLeicester with @9amben @dmuanjones at Leicester counts. No results yet… but we’ve already fallen out
And as I clock off from what’s been an exciting #LocalElections2023. I found my favourite polling station at the back of a small village pub in the Blaby District. It would be rude not to try it out! @leicslive @BBCLeicester
Parrots at polling stations!? This is Steve Brown, joined by his 25 year old parrot having just cast his vote in the Kibworth ward! @leicslive @BBCLeicester #LocalElections2023
@HRichardsonLDR much for organising this with @leicslive . Shame there was a Tory no show again- the public to serve better. It’s so important hustings take place and candidates are scrutinised. facebook.com/groups/Leicest…
I was interviewed for @BarnieChoudhury's Radio 4 doc about the influence of divisive South Asian politics in the UK - produced by @KevinCore Listen back here bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…
