A busy few days for @rectripp and me, including being interviewed by the young people of Forest Gate Youth Zone and some Essex Street #labourdoorstep.
🔌: The police are still offering free bike marking and advice until 4PM outside Number 8!

Today Rachel and I welcomed Abi Gbago, Newham Council’s CEO, to a walkabout all across Forest Gate North.
We talked about what we’re proudest of as well as our biggest challenges, and how officers and local politicians can work together for residents 🤝

After 12 years, the @LondonLegacy Planning Decisions Committee held its last 5-hour meeting! It’s been a privilege to help shape the QEII Park and surrounding areas over my 5 years. Exciting challenges await when planning powers return to the boroughs in December!
My youngest, despite my efforts, ate almost no protein at all that I was aware of for at least 2 years, with no discernible impact on her growth or health (um, so far…!!). Hang in there. These small people are sent to try us.

I came on to say **exactly** this. I don’t know why the word ‘utilise’ winds me up so much but it is infuriating to me. The word ‘use’ is right there.

Volunteers are our life-blood. We could not do anything without you!
If you want to help but don't know where to start spend the morning with us at our new building on Thursday September 5th (10 til 12) - and find out how you can be part of the Magpie Project Magic.

It was mistakenly on my mental ‘should but probably will be worthy and hard going’ list and I have never been more wrong, I **raced** through it.
I just read ‘the immortal life of Henrietta lacks’ which had been on my shelf for years, which I mistakenly thought would be good but worthy so had been putting off. Wrong. It was good and important but brilliantly written and a rip roaringly good read too.
