This week in St James🌹

I’m not the most active on social media, but a few people have said they'd like to see more of what their local Councillor is actually up to - so I’m going to start sharing a short weekly update about my work around St James!

My thoughts and condolences - along with the rest of London - are with everyone affected by the horrific attack at Bondi Beach, Australia today.

The Met Police are increasing their visibility in our Jewish communities ahead of any Chanukah events.

Devastating to hear this morning about a fatal road traffic accident by Blackhorse Rd station. My thoughts are with the victim, their family, and all those affected. I have been in touch with Council officers today about how we can work with TfL and other local partners to keep everyone safe.

A red graphic with white text saying that we have written to the chancellor and secretary of state for education asking them to lift the two-child benefit cap

Ahead of the Spending Review, we have written to
Rachel Reeves and Bridget Phillipson making the case for the end of the two-child benefit cap.

The cap currently impacts over 7,500 children in Waltham Forest. 👶👧👦

Congrats! Great news 🌹
