🚨 BREAKING: This week, the Government introduced to Parliament three vital steps to support our shopworkers in the Crime and Policing Bill, delivering on commitments made to make our high streets safer.
Delighted to travel to Woolwich today to take part in the @coopcouncils.bsky.social AGM & Conference. It's essential that Cllrs from all over the country contribute to the direction of travel & I'm honoured to represent District Councils (& opposition groups) UK wide on the Exec Board.

Was delighted to represent the Cooperative Councils Innovation Network at @casecooperative.bsky.social this afternoon. Was great to meet old and new friends alike, and catch-up with @rosemarley.bsky.social before our AGM in February.
It's terrible that the operator's of Walley's Quarry continue to pollute Silverdale, Keele and the surrounding areas. Please find below my submission to the Planning Inspectorate regarding the Closure Notice Appeal.
Additional funding for Staffordshire to tackle 144,824 potholes next year. Change has begun.
JUST ANNOUNCED - A huge boost in funding for Newcastle-under-Lyme to prevent and tackle homelessness. Labour promised change - and the work of change has begun
Get in @officialpvfc.bsky.social! That's what we want to see! Solid Team Performance ... 11 changes has given everyone a run out, £20K in the bank, a good night all round! #VTID #UTV #SVA
So Kidsgrove Tory's deselect a sitting Cllr and install a chap with little to no history in Kidsgrove. Thankfully Labour’s candidates have proven records across the Parish, and I'm very much looking forward to May and two Labour Gains in the County Elections 🌹
Thank you to the local residents who contacted me this week re: the former London Hoist site. I've visited a couple of residents this afternoon, taken pictures, and will follow up with Local Authorities in the morning.
High winds have brought down more than 20 trees and forced a number of roads to be closed in part of Staffordshire.

On 28 November 2024 the Environment Agency issued a Closure Notice to Walleys Quarry Limited (WQL), they concluded that management of Walleys Quarry is poor & that further operation of the site may result in significant long-term pollution. (1 of 2)
Don't think for a second we haven't seen you on this list @hannahhiles.bsky.social 😉 Congratulations 👏🏻 www.port-vale.co.uk/news/sixteen...
I am so, so happy to read this, it's a testament to the local community, with support from local MP Adam Jogee and Newcastle Council, that we can start to look to the future. There is still much to be done, but Adam & Labour Local Cllrs will continue to ensure the capping & measures are completed.
Its vital that residents from Talke, Talke Pits, Butt Lane & across the Parish as a whole take part, not only to make sure your voices are heard but to stop the drain of resources from areas like Kidsgrove, to plough money into other areas of Newcastle. We need your help to stop this!
Newcastle Borough Council is planning the council’s 2025/26 budget and wants to hear from residents.
❓ Which services are most important to you? Should they focus on protecting services, or keeping council tax to a minimum? Should they increase income?

Will it's ten hours since that equaliser, and I'm still grumpy about it! 😂 I'd have settled for a draw on 50th minutes but gutted to concede in injury time. Fabulous advert for League 2 football ⚽️ #UTV #VTID
Labour is working hard to deliver the change Newcastle needs. We inherited a country broke and broken, but we are getting back on track. Just this week we have seen major reforms to policing and children’s social care and new investment for local bus routes - change has begun
Next up this evening is a chat on @moorlandssport1.bsky.social as I look forward to the @officialpvfc.bsky.social Vs Crewe top of the table clash at Vale Park next Monday. On air from 20:00.
Just a quick update on the Councillor Briefing last night at Newcastle Borough Council surrounding Walley's Quarry. Whilst the contents of the meeting are embargoed, I can assure residents that the Council is moving heaven and earth to ensure the operator meets the demands placed on them.
Our commentary game between Congleton Town and Clitheroe has been called off but, we still have a sport show to bring you from 7pm.

Stay safe and warm tonight please ... Tricky trip home from the Council tonight, update in the morning.
Do you recognise this man? Staffs Police would like to speak to him after property was stolen from inside a parked car in Kidsgrove. At 1.10pm on Monday 10 September, a man opened the passenger-side door of the Ford Mondeo on Church Street and took a mobile phone, a bank card and a driving licence.
Really enjoyed my morning in Clough Hall Park with the Junior Parkrun team today. It's my 3rd anniversary with the event and 131 races in, it's going from strength to strength and it's a permanent fixture in my diary.
Just home from Morecambe after a cracking 1-0 win for @officialpvfc.bsky.social, which takes the Valiants 5 points clear at the top of the table. Hope you enjoyed the @moorlandssport1.bsky.social updates during the game.
I think @richscottmedia.bsky.social secretly wishes he was watching @officialpvfc.bsky.social with me tomorrow 😉 I'll be sending reports back from Morecambe too @moorlandssport1.bsky.social throughout the afternoon 👏🏻
Very much hoping that life here on Blue Sky is a little kinder than elsewhere in the Social Media landscape. Cllr for my local community for over a decade, please feel free to message me with any questions / thoughts or indeed casework and I'll be back to you ASAP, Mike
