A huge thanks to Bristol East Labour Party members and affiliates to the local Labour Party for unanimously reselecting me to re-stand as Labour’s candidate for Bristol East at the next election.

It’s been a privilege to represent Bristol East for the past 17 years. If anything, the challenges have got greater: a global pandemic and Putin taking Europe to the brink of war, along with the ever-growing threat of climate change and the impact of a decade of austerity on our public services. This country desperately needs a progressive Labour government and that’s what I will be fighting for at the next election. In the meantime, as always, I’m here to help.
