Tower Hamlets is a great place and here some of the things Labour achieved
leading the borough from 2015-2022 to make it greater still.
investment into children’s centres, community development, mental health services, and projects to take loneliness
We are a campaigning party. We are out in communities across Tower Hamlets looking to achieve positive change for local people.
Enjoyed a wonderful walk through my ward, Bethnal Green East. It was lovely to meet with dedicated small business owners who are making a difference in our local community. Wishing all the best of luck.
Hester, a racist, mysoginistic businessman from West Yorkshire, runs a healthcare technology firm, the Phoenix Partnership (TPP), which has been paid more than £400m by the NHS and other government bodies since 2016
Ramadan Mubarak from everyone at the Labour Party.
We wish you and your families a peaceful Ramadan.
Day 482 of Mayor Lutfur Rahman's "waste emergency", which is marked not only by failing to collect the refuse + recycling from Ordell Rd, but still leaving it even after was reported. By my reckoning this is at least the 10th missed collection here in past year. #NotCleanNotGreen
Equality is the bedrock of @TH_Labour.
Our political pursuit is strengthened by our women members - through participation, voting, leadership and representation.
Pleasing to see our Women’s Branch celebrating our local women members.
Celebrated International Women’s Day @BGandSLabour Women’s branch.
Lively protest in Bethnal Green Park against @LutfurRahmanTH’s broken Council Tax promise. From “I will freeze Council Tax for four years” when he was running for election to “I will increase it by as much as I can get away with to fund my lavish office and propaganda machine”.
Campaigning in the rain this morning near the beautiful Columbia Flower Market.

Happy Mothers Day!
Today we celebrate and thank our mums for all they do, and remember those who are no longer with us.
This is such an important issue, excellent video by @GMBPoliticsLDN to stress the importance of a new deal for working people! @Terrympaul love the slow motion walk !
Together we stand.
Together we rise.
Happy #InternationalWomensDay
On this #IWD we celebrate our excellent Labour councillors in Tower Hamlets.
They work tirelessly in opposition to represent their residents in a Council where every Cabinet post, Committee Chair and Speaker of the Borough are positions held by men.
The fight is not yet won. https://t.co/z50sfzraqy
Today on International Women’s Day, we celebrate women's successes in my constituency, across our country & globally. We stand in solidarity with women who continue to risk their lives in the fight for equality & justice, & recommit to fighting for a truly inclusive world.
We are a member-driven and people-powered organisation.
Labour activists are the lifeblood of our Party and the engine room of our campaigning.
Labour’s messages on social media — whether from the party or our people — are an important part of Labour’s digital campaigning and something you can easily help with from home. Hearing direct from people like you in virtual community groups and other online spaces about the issues that matter locally is an important way to amplify Labour’s messages. In times where there can be mistrust of politicians, posts from friends, neighbours and local stakeholders can help voters to connect with Labour values and local track record where other media fails. We can help you to use social media as a campaign tool for Labour, with training provided for those who want to take it further.
Labour leaflets help us keep in touch with residents, and ensure our representatives and their work are widely recognised. The local team produces and prints Labour literature and organises it ready for distribution by local teams within neighbourhoods. Could you volunteer to take a delivery round in your local patch? Our leafleters play a vital role in Labour campaigns, and you’ll be given everything you need, including a map of the streets you’ll be covering. Getting started couldn’t be easier!
Dialogue is Labour’s online system for telephone canvassing. It’s a crucial way to connect with voters and provides vital information that helps us at election time. You’ll need an internet-connected device and a mobile phone. Connecting to the system via your Labour membership details means that the calls cost you nothing. Once logged in, you’ll be connected automatically with the voter and can see a script to work through and input responses. We often run ‘phone banks’ to work together, either in person or virtually, and it’s a great way to volunteer when the weather isn’t great for door-knocking.
Traditionally, the Labour Party is known for people-powered campaigning, with door-knocking at its heart. Canvassing is all about collecting information on the thoughts and voting intentions of local residents, as well as connecting them with Labour values through thousands of positive conversations and face-to-face interactions (and not just at election time!). We work in local teams, and your organiser will have an app called Doorstep that directly inputs the information you collect into Labour’s systems. Door-to-door canvassing is the most powerful form of volunteering for the Labour Party and a great way to meet fellow activists in your area.
Beyond talking to voters, there are other ways to help Labour and your community. This could include signing and sharing Labour-led petitions, completing and helping to promote one of our surveys, or co-signing a letter pressing for action on an important topic and encouraging others to do the same. Please look out for opportunities to put your voice behind Labour’s campaigns as we build up the pressure for better ways to address the big issues that face us.
