Unlike most of his competition and Mercer, @LukePollard lives right here in Plymouth. He walks the same streets as us. Sees the same issues. Shops in the same shops. Drinks in the same pubs. Since 2017 Luke has shown what a difference authentic, local representation can make.

I’m the only candidate of any major party standing in Plymouth Sutton and Devonport who actually lives here. I’m proud to be standing for re-election where I was born and where I live.

🌳 @PlymouthLabour Council hoped to plant 3500 trees last season. News just in: we delivered over 4000. Big community effort. Sites inspired by residents. 300 volunteers helped to get them in the ground. Together we’re greening the city for nature recovery & future generations.

Not all heroes wear capes! Less than a day after being bitten by a dog, @PlymouthSally is back on the doors around Pennycomequick. Now with a Labour spatula at the ready.

Today I chatted about a topic close to my heart with a national hero - @Feargal_Sharkey . Feargal was campaigning for @PlymouthLabour because he backs our plan to end the Tory sewage scandal. What a perfect backdrop too - Plymouth Sound, the UK’s first National Marine Park.

I am a teacher. Tory austerity has meant your child now gets much less ‘per pupil funding’ than if they were born a decade earlier. Plymouth doesn’t even get its fair share of that. There is only one party offering the real change that education needs: #VoteLabourDecember12th

We had two @PlymouthLabour teams out in Eggbuckland today. The only Plymouth ward won by a Tory candidate in this year’s local elections - by just 17 votes. Several residents knew how close it had been and offered to help @FredThomasUK over the line.

Congrats to Sarah and Alistair on overturning huge 20,000 Tory majorities. Here in Plymouth, Mercer’s lead is 13,000 but in May @PlymouthLabour councillors were elected across every ward in his constituency. Plymouth deserves better than Mercer. Time for @FredThomasUK .
