Happy Diwali! ๐ชโจ
Wishing everyone light, joy and new beginnings!
We had a lovely time celebrating with friends at the Nameste Kingston event, and at Diwali on the Square. Lots of music, colours and community spirit!
Weโre facing a national crisis with too many children and young people facing huge struggles with their mental health. Thatโs why Iโm stepping forward to help provide targeted schools across London with tools, training and support to make a real difference for their students.

Our streets and community should be free from acts and messages of hate. We all deserve safe, welcoming spaces, and I have, once again, written to the council on this matter, and asked them to deal with the latest incident swiftly.

No ifs, no buts. Forward.
But real change can't stop there...
From teaching CPR to inspiring young people through opportunities like the fire cadets, and collecting coats for people in need in winter, itโs always so heartening to see the difference they make.
Above and beyond! Thank you!

Hereโs Some Good News You Might Have Missed Last Week: ๐
We had a great time at the New Malden K-pop Awards! ๐ถโจ
Well done to the organisers for a great event & sharing a much-needed message: K-pop more than music & dance - itโs about people from different backgrounds & ages coming together, connecting & inspiring positive energy in their community.

Kingston Labour out on the doors, talking to residents about what matters to them, from housing to local services.
Labour is working hard to turn around over a decade of total mismanagement & lack of investment - with housing, health & stronger worker rights as key priorities.
Reform claim to back workers โ but have turned their back on them again and again, voting AGAINST the Employment Rights Bill to keep:
โ
Fire & rehire
โ
Exploitative zero-hours
โ
No unfair dismissal protection 2 yrs
โ
3-day sick pay wait
Theyโre not on your side.
โ
Sensible changes to support hardworking people. Thatโs what Labourโs Employment Rights Bill does.
โ The Liberal Democrats and Reform UK have both worked with the Conservatives in Parliament to try and block it.
