Delighted to have been appointed as the Executive Member for Inclusive Economy & Planning at Islington Council. First day today and straight in at the deep end with Alan Milburn launching his interim report on NEETs in the borough this morning. Lots to get up to speed with!

Great to welcome @alanmilburn1958 and @patmcfaddenmp to Islington yesterday.
Yesterday, Alan Milburn launched his first report into the number of young people NEET from our Cally Youth Hub๐Ÿ“ The new figures are a stark warning: a system-wide view must be taken to give our young people in Islington and beyond the best opportunities to thrive ๐Ÿ’ก

Very pleased to have been re-elected in Junction Ward with Sheila and Ben and proud that Islington remained a Labour borough ๐ŸŒน But I feel sad for the councillors in Islington, London and the whole country who lost their seats. We lost a lot of good community champions yesterday

CAMRA North London welcome The Mother Red Cap in Archway reopening Mid May and hope that Star pubs have undertaken a sensitive restoration of the locally listed building. The pub has beautiful tiling and mirrors and is one of the last Irish pubs on the Holloway Road. 1/2
Thanks to @HamandHigh for covering my campaign to get The Mother Red Cap reopened. ๐Ÿบ Iโ€™m hoping the works going on inside mean that it will be back in business soon and I look forward to popping back in to have a pint! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป hamhigh.co.uk/news/26001290.โ€ฆ
