Do you think the USA university protests for Gaza should be adopted by UK students?
Everyone was surprised when I said that Labour could win the North Yorks mayoral contest. I think they may win it. It'll be very close tho and the Tory lad has run a great campaign
I believe that Labour have lost the Tees Valley mayoral election. This is because they foolishly adopted their national campaign strategy of complaining and saying Vote Labour.
@Tees_Issues @preston_andy @PatrickJMonahan @GoffyMedia The Unicorn centre in danger of closing. We can't let this happen to a valuable Middlesbrough charity. A riding centre for the disabled. Please retweet. X facebook.com/share/p/TuDjv9…
Speed and momentum are critical when it comes to wining in investment and regenerating forgotten places like Teesside. That's why I am urging people to vote for Ben Houchen as Tees Valley Mayor on Thursday 🙏
My mayoral election predictions for the highly contested areas: Tees Valley: Houchen win (Tory) West Mids: Parker win (Labour) North Yorks: too close to call Labour win all other mayorships
Expect more dirty tricks in the Tees Valley Mayor race this week, including the Mbro Mayor resigning from the MDC in order to make Ben Houchen look bad.
We were totally soaked this morning, picking up litter off the streets and paths around Mandale Road, Middlesbrough. Great to see so many volunteers defying the shocking weather 💪🏻 Well done everyone - enjoy your well earned Sunday rest 😀❤️😀
Awesome autism charity @daisychain_ne does incredible work to prevent homelessness and suicide. Autistic and neurodiverse individuals face heightened risks of isolation, leading to self-harm and despair. I visited today to learn more and help with marketing ideas 😃 #Autism
Angela Rayner called Rishi Sunak a "pint-size loser". Are insults about physical appearance wrong?
We are doing a walk on 22 June to raise money for the charity. It would be great if you could consider supporting us - we are your local charity for brain injury survivors.
Good morning ☀️ What are you up to today? I love this pic of Sandsend by @laurie_smithies Andy

Sharing news, announcements & more from the BBC in Salford & across the North. 📷 Instagram: bbcnorthpr@Tees_Issues Keane is the only candidate I have seen out and about and making an effort during the campaigning for this. For that he deserves to win. NY is still big Tory country, however throw York into the equation like we have tomorrow and I agree it will be close.
@Tees_Issues Andy, totally correct. Labour are a puppet for the south. Ben deals with all walks of life with ease. His record is remarkable as it has been done in sectors that the north east has never been able to deliver on #stability
For #Catholics, the month of May is dedicated to Mary, Our Lady. If you ever feel distressed during your day - call upon our Lady - just say this simple prayer: 'Mary, Mother of Jesus, please be a mother to me now.' She will never let you down!
@Tees_Issues You may be right Andy but if the margin of victory is anything less than say 10% of the total votes cast, the current incumbent would be foolish to claim a vindication of his policies (although he certainly will, and loudly) given the majority was 45% in 2021.
@Tees_Issues Blokes in Donkey Jackets telling us how grim it is round here is not who we are anymore. Thank God. Important that everyone backing Ben goes and votes. No room for complacency.
@Tees_Issues I’m not feeling too well at the minute I’m afraid. I was at Donington Park marshalling over the weekend and I think being stood in the cold and rain has caught up with me. How are you? X

It was 20 years ago today I joined @StewartsLawLLP . I have had a brilliant 20 years and have been privileged to work with some amazing lawyers. I’ve met no end of clients who have inspired me with their attitude towards their life changing injuries. Here’s to the next 20!
If the Labour Party continue to live in the past rather than the future Sunak has a slim chance at the next election. I’m fully aware of what’s happened in the past and sick to the back teeth of it BUT having no future plan won’t get my vote. And neither will £2 bus fairs.
Tomorrow, I will be voting for @BenHouchen in the hope that he remains Tees Valley Mayor, when it comes down to it we need doers not talkers. Regarding the Police and Crime Commissioner, I honestly can't say that either candidate is the best choice. Therefore, Spoilt ballot.
@Tees_Issues Yeah that’s how I see it, along with is this really all worth it for £40 and the mess on comms, that we are in and out like the Hokey Cokey on getting rid of our green bins!

@Tees_Issues I hope Labour win here, but if they don’t their campaign strategy does need looking at.
@Tees_Issues Their strategy is always negative and attack. ‘14 years’ 🥱 Let’s hope Houchen stays in to balance the likely Labour or Labour coalition government
