My one wish for the the new government: Please remove the two child limit. No child deserves to be poorer because they are a sibling. @resolvepoverty

@ConnorRand4ASW @UKLabour Wooh! Congrats Connor!

It is an absolute honour and a privilege to be elected as the first ever @UKLabour Member of Parliament for Altrincham and Sale West. Thank you to all those who put your faith in me. I will work tirelessly to be your voice in Westminster.

@emmaksims Hi there. The East Didsbury service will leave St Peters on the same platform as Altrincham, Eccles and Airport services. A service will be with you in 4 minutes.

@BeeNetwork can you let me know when the next tram to east Didsbury will be from st. Peter’s square? And also which platform? I am confused
