What a week for Sheffield Labour. We’ve made five gains, winning seats from the Tories, the Lib Dems and the Greens. These results show that Labour is winning support from a broad range of voters from across the city.

Sheffield is a city on the up and people backed our plan!

Thank you to everyone who voted Labour and backed our positive plan to build a better Sheffield.

That's a 16.7 pc swing to Labour. Need a 12.7 pc swing at GE for majority.

Lab: 'Swing puts Labour on track to win every single seat in the area in a GE... If Sunak doesn’t take this result as a major wake up call he is in denial'

Seats like Redcar, Hartlepool, Stockton West

Humiliation for Rishi Sunak as The Labour Party take the Mayorality in his Richmond constituency home patch.

This is so funny except it’s not funny at all, is it. For decades the direction was towards making voting easier, encouraging mass engagement.

The shamelessness of this change to the democratic franchise, the first to put barriers between voters and their most sacred right… 1/

Tony Blair achieved four 20 point plus swings from Cons when he was opposition leader - Starmer has now achieved five - including four of the top 5 largest ever, all achieved in the last year

Labour GAIN Redditch from the Conservatives 🌹

Was told by Labour sources today that the party isn’t going to water down workers’ rights. This what Angela Rayner 🌹 told me in an interview in Jan, which was subsequently backed up by Starmer and Reeves

Out in the sunshine with Stephanie Peacock and team for Oliver Coppard and Bridget Kelly!

When is an ID card not an ID card? When it’s introduced by Office for Veterans’ Affairs. We need fewer slogans and more attention to detail.

Today is polling day in sunny South Yorkshire.

Great to be out speaking to residents in Bentley.
