The cost of living crisis is having a devastating impact on the survivors of domestic abuse. Today, Birmingham Labour pledged to do even more to support women through the cost of living crisis, and challenge the Government to give us the funding we so urgently need. 💜
Congratulations Saima Ahmed, our new councillor in Sparkbrook & Balsall Heath East. A fantastic result and welcome to our Labour Group!
My thoughts and prayers are with Her Majesty The Queen and her family at this time. I join everyone across Birmingham and the United Kingdom in hoping for her recovery.
I’m supporting @CllrShaunDavies as the next @LGA_Labour Leader who I know will be a strong voice for Labour in Local Government across the UK.
We were given 90 seconds to tell you about our achievements in the last four years. Birmingham Labour is #OnYourSide.
Families in Birmingham are struggling with the cost of living crisis - yet this week the Conservatives are raising our taxes. Again. There is a better way. Labour has a plan - Birmingham Labour is on your side.
Families in Birmingham are struggling to pay the bills and need urgent help to fix the cost of living crisis. Read our message to the government ahead of Wednesday's Statement from the Chancellor: birmingham-labour.com/news/2022/03/2…
Huge congratulations to my friend and colleague @PauletteHamilto for being elected as the MP for Erdington!

Together with @CllrJohnCotton and @bhamcos I have written to the Home Secretary urging the Government to further relax the visa requirements for Ukrainian nationals in response to the escalating humanitarian crisis. #WeStandWithUkraine 🇺🇦

Absolutely devastated at the death of my friend and colleague Jack Dromey. A true Labour man who served the people of Erdington with passion and dedication, Jack devoted his life to the service of others. He will be sorely missed and my thoughts are with his family at this time.

Delivering a Bold legacy for Birmingham – city council unveils its plan for maximising the benefits for all in the city from hosting the 2022 Commonwealth Games. Full story and plan here: orlo.uk/ZkqiL #BeBoldBeBham #B2022
I am shocked and saddened at the death of my friend and colleague Penny Holbrook. My thoughts and condolences go to her family and friends at this tragic time.
Read my latest blog reflecting on #COP26 and the actions that we're taking right here in Birmingham to tackle the Climate Emergency. birmingham.gov.uk/blog/birmingha…
I'm now on my way home to Birmingham after an interesting day at #COP26 and looking forward to cracking on with the work that we have started to build a cleaner, greener Birmingham for everyone.
I have just had the privilege of travelling on the first mainline-approved hydrogen train in the UK! Developed in Birmingham by @unibirmingham, HydroFLEX shows that #hydrogen has the potential to decarbonise our railways faster and cheaper than electrification.
Here in Birmingham we are taking bold steps to tackle the climate emergency. Here's @WaseemZaffar trying to name as many as possible in 90 seconds! #COP26

My journey to #COP26 is going to take over 4 hours today. That’s twice as long as the equivalent journey in France. We need the Government to back High Speed 2, in its entirety, to increase capacity on the UK’s rail network, and fight the climate crisis.
I’m really excited to be travelling to Glasgow today for #COP26 Follow my journey today as I talk about the innovative steps that @BhamCityCouncil is taking to tackle the climate emergency!
To mark Transport day at #COP26 @WaseemZaffar has written about Birmingham’s Clean Air Zone, why it has been done, and how it is going lgalabourclimateemergency.com/blog/Birmingha…
