I’m a fan of Aji but my word has he looked short of confidence these last few games. Would have started Cirkin. Interested to see if Mayenda and Wilson can play together.

Reform wants you to believe they’re about change. But all we see is the same old story: empty promises, dodgy characters, & a leader who won’t back his words with action. Farage likes to talk tough, but when it really matters? He’s just another bluffer.

This is the real Reform: Thugs and Bluffers.

Sheffield United are not good. If that’s what is top of the Championship going into December than this league is wide open for someone to get promoted from. #SAFC

Another game against a top 6 team and Sunderland are head and shoulders better than them! #SAFC

Imagine if the same scrutiny was applied to Reform MPs that is applied to Labour MPs.

How does James McMurdock still have the Reform whip? It’s been proven he lied about being a convicted woman beater.

Farage wants to lead the country? He can’t lead a party of 5 MPs.

I also wonder, #SAFC fans…do we need to replace Roberts in January? I’m not sure he’s offered us much in the last 18 months. Would Mundle, Wilson and Mayenda be a stronger front 3?

Only thing worse than watching Sunderland batter WBA without putting the ball in the back of the net, was having to listen to Sky Sports commentators pretend WBA had the better of the game. #SAFC

It’s vital my community in Basildon are protected from McMurdock. Schools, charities, constituents, businesses…they need to know who this man really is, and ensure appropriate security and safeguarding measures are in place when they come into contact with him.

This is very serious.

This morning, I visited Castledon SEND School in Wickford with Mr Holliday. The school does amazing work, but we need more SEND provision in our borough. As a unitary authority, we’ll have the power and funding to invest in facilities so every child has the support they need to thrive.
