Brilliant to see @S_A_Russell address Regional Conference both as Congleton's first ever Labour MP but also as one of three former Northenden Councillors who are now in Parliament. @NorthendenLab @CllrSLynch @CllrAngelaMoran

Thank you @silverscreendm for a wonderful evening last night. The film was fantastic and it was great to see so many locations in Northenden and across Wythenshawe, as well as so many local people being involved and making the film their own. @CllrSLynch @CllrAngelaMoran

Great to be out with @CllrSLynch and @CllrAngelaMoran as well as @NorthendenLab members to speak to residents on Patterdale Road, Morrell Road and Weston Grove. Thanks to all the residents who took the time to talk to us about the issues of concern to them.

An honour to have made my maiden speech at Full Council today and brilliant to have made it on the important topic of justice for British Nuclear Test Veterans as well. A big thanks to @Judge903Judge for inviting me to second his motion.

Would also like to thank @CllrAngelaMoran for taking the photo as well as @fleetstreetfox and @DailyMirror for the fringe event I attended at Labour Party Conference. It enabled me to speak on the subject with authority.

An inspirational speech by @Keir_Starmer today. He showed that by taking the difficult decisions today we will all have a brighter future tomorrow.

A brilliant speech by @RachelReevesMP. There could not be anyone better to be in charge of our economy at the moment. She will fix the mess the Tories left behind and lead us into a brighter future.

My first pint under a Keir Starmer led Labour Government. The first day of a new era.

It was a pleasure to attend an event at Northenden Group Practice to promote the use of the NHS App with Fred Leatherbarrow today. Was great to see after help from an expert, many patients became coverts to it. @CllrSLynch @CllrAngelaMoran

Had a wonderful evening watching a showing of the Galatasaray v United game at Old Trafford this evening. @alankeegan1 was a great host and it was fantastic to hear him announce the attendance for the night of 475 with the same gusto as he announces a sell out crowd in a big game

The rousing rendition of the Red Flag and Jerusalem was a brilliant end to a brilliant Conference. As @JohannaBaxter said. Let's go out and win the General Election.

Thank you very much to Oleksandr Korniyenko @OlekKorn for addressing the Labour Party Conference. Labour will never forget Ukraine and stand in solidarity until the war is won.

Was the privilege of my life to be in the Conference Hall to hear @Keir_Starmer. He has shown this week that he is ready to lead and will make a fantastic Prime Minister.

Brilliant to hear @mgshanks address the Labour Party Conference. The path to a Labour Government runs through Scotland. His victory is a massive tribute to the hard work by @AnasSarwar and his team.

An honour to hear an amazing speech by @RachelReevesMP. As our first female Chancellor she will provide the leadership to our economy that we are so desperately lacking at the moment.
