What an evening! 10 years of being your MP. Thank you to my local Labour Party members (past and present) for years of support and encouragement 🌹🙏🏽

Last week I was pleased to meet with GPs from Highgate Group Practice to discuss health issues facing our community. I am grateful to have such hardworking and diligent primary care providers in my constituency. #NHSHeroes

We must never forget the horror of the Holocaust, nor the discrimination and persecution that enabled it. We must challenge Antisemitism and all language of hatred. We remember the past so it never happens again. #LightTheDarkness

The floods in South Hampstead in 2021 were devastating. The local drainage system couldn’t cope with the extreme rain. With climate change bringing more storms, we need to protect vulnerable residents and fix our water industry. I raised this important issue in Parliament today.

It was great to be back in the Commons today, praising my constituents for their generosity towards Ukrainian refugees. Huge thanks to my friends, colleagues (from all political parties) and City stakeholders who have shown me such warmth and support recently 💪🏾🌹

Many constituents have contacted me about the rise of mobile phone theft in Hampstead and Highgate. I too have been a victim of mugging and appreciate how traumatic this can be. Yesterday, I met with the police to hear about the work they’re doing to protect the community.

Really good on the #LabourDoorstep last night w/ @LornaLGreenwood on Westcroft estate. A freezing cold night but a warm reception. Heard concerns on anti-social behaviour, repairs and broken pavement guttering; casework now underway. Also heard complements on council repairs.

Calling #WestHampstead, #SouthHampstead and #Kilburn locals. The @CamdenCouncil #NHS Mobile Health bus will be @SherriffCentre 1-5pm TODAY. Offering vaccines, health assessments and smoking advice. Drop in - take care of yourself this winter. 💙

Brilliant to be out speaking to residents across Highgate and Fortune Green this weekend. Loads of support for Labour locally in Camden and nationally - and particularly with Rachel Reeves’ budget! 🌹

I know many of my Jewish constituents are distressed after the appalling vandalism we saw in Hampstead and the handling of recent incidents locally. I’m in constant contact with the police and others to raise concerns and ensure there’s no tolerance of hate crime in our area.

Great to see Tulip our local MP in front of No.11 with @RachelReevesMP in her role as a Treasury Minister. Proud to work with Tulip locally in @HampsteadLabour @CamdenLabour ♥️♥️🌹🌹
