The way we treat other qnd talk about people really matters. This 'worse than criminals' rhetoric is appalling and needs to stop.

I find talking about how I feel really hard, especially when everything is not ok. You're not alone.

I've been on my summer holidays and I'm back from today! 🏖 Please bear with me as I catch up. The best way to contact me is via email - [email protected] - tagging on social media is a bit hit and miss. 👍

Whilst this isn't something within our power as a Council we, the Leeds Labour Councillors, called on our Government to formally recognise the State of Palestine as part of a renewed commitment to a just and viable peace.

I'm in Bradford today for West Yorkshire Pension Fund meetings. Keeping over 300,000 people's pensions secure. For those interested, we've moved to one committee, the Advisory Panel, rather than the IP and JAG, which will remove duplication, but means it'll be a long meeting!

Good to be at the IIIG Scrutiny board this morning, mostly talking about flood risk management - keeping our city as safe as possible from flooding. But the truth is climate change is increasing the risk. Watch back here: youtube.com/live/O-Czez0pT…

*** Update on this bit of Dewsbury Road *** Virgin Media have accepted responsibility for repairing this bit of road, but are being tardy about it. LCC has chased again this week.

I chaired the AHAL scrutiny board today. Really important topics discussed today: 1. The CQC inspection of Leeds maternity and neonatal wards 2. The health impacts of social media on young people, and 3. The Council's adult social care budget.

Today I'm at full council, one of 8 meetings during the year where all Leeds Councillors meet and debate (or more honestly talk past each other ☹️). I spoke about the Health Scrutiny Board I chair and the importance of the health provision in Leeds.
