We expect it from the Conservatives, but from Labour too?

Portsmouth's Labour MP Stephen Morgan MP joined the Conservatives to vote to weaken Ofwat, the water regulator today.

Our city deserves better than more ๐Ÿ’ฉ in the water.

Today for the 22nd time we remember the poison gas attack on the civilians of Halabja. They were murdered because they were Kurds. Portsmouth is proud to stand against genocide.

Today it rained but we still remembered the 645 South African men who had come to support the UK and died at sea 107 years ago. The SS Mendi sank, and for many years the story was forgotten. It was good to welcome the Deputy High Commissioner of South Africa.

Thanks to the wonderful team of paramedics from South Central Ambulance Service who came and looked after John today. They were great and we agreed that being cared for at home is better than sitting outside QA for hours. Thanks team.

Today at QA hospital 20 ambulances outside as no spaces in A&E. A&E full as no beds on wards for patients as people fit for discharge blocking beds. In Pโ€™mouth the Council accepts patients from hospital to assess them in care home but NHS is cutting funding. So more queues at A&E

Portsmouth getting night buses for the first time in decades from next month. Plus more evening and weekend services. Helping to give an alternative to the car and help improve air quality. Thanks to Stagecoach South and First Bus

Team Portsmouth have been out and about receiving a warm reception from Southsea residents on a chilly weekend. ๐Ÿงก
One thing is for sure, hardly anyone will be voting Conservative this year and many are uninspired by Labour.
