Every word of this. Margaret McDonagh was one of the greatest campaigners and fighters @uklabour ever had. Someone who always gave more than she took, and never forgot the link between campaigning and delivery for people. For many of the core TB Team the last time we saw her 1/2 https://n.respublicae.eu/keir_starmer/status/1672567346039324672

At Leicester’s Armed Forces Day parade today.
Good to see lots of people there to show their appreciation.
Today and every day, we are grateful and thankful for all our armed forces community do, and all our veterans have done, to keep us safe.

This is terribly sad news.
As a young activist at the 2001 Election you could feel Margaret’s leadership, relentless focus on organisation and campaign discipline running all the way through Labour - from Millbank to CLPs. https://n.respublicae.eu/keir_starmer/status/1672567346039324672

Re I only met Margaret a handful of times, but she was someone we all respected and looked up to. A name synonymous with the building of Labour’s election winning organisation.
My thoughts and condolences are with Siobhan and all Margaret’s friends and family.

Special congratulations to @tremma_74 @Gaynor54 - their leadership and championing of this over several years has made it happen. And to @CityMayorLeic & team. Special mention to my former colleague Piara Singh Clair who I know championed this too.

This is utterly appalling. Disgraceful behaviour. People who assault emergency workers or deliberately damage their vehicles should face the full force of the law #ProtectTheProtectors

It’s just excuse after excuse with the Tories but they aren’t fooling anyone.

It's time for a Labour Government to grow Britain's economy and put money back into working people's pockets.

📈The Tory Mortgage Penalty.

The cost of the Conservatives.
They crashed the economy and it’s households across the country - already struggling through the Tory cost of living crisis - that will pay the price.
