Today, we braved the rain to speak to residents in Sprowston and Crome! 🌧️

We had some great conversations about local issues, and there was lots of recognition for how hard the Labour councillors in these areas work to support residents and make a difference.

Thanks to all the volunteers who helped us reach so many people, and to everyone who took the time to speak to us on their doorstep!

News this week that the new Reform administration at Norfolk County Council has stopped flying the Ukrainian flag at County Hall, and won’t allow the Pride Progress flag to be flown during Pride Month, is disappointing - but sadly not surprising.

Their ban is a performative gesture, designed to distract and divide.

Norwich Labour will continue to stand in solidarity with the people of Ukraine - including the thriving Ukrainian community in Norwich - and the LGBTQA+ community across our city and county.

No child deserves to go to school hungry.

We’re proud that the Labour Government has provided 10 million free breakfasts to primary school children, including 800,000 in our region.

Norfolk Labour’s Cllr Ben Weston speaks out against Reform’s thinly veiled attack on climate initiatives 👇

𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗮𝘆’𝘀 𝗔𝗚𝗠, 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗸 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗹 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 - 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝘂𝗽 𝗯𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺 𝗮 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

From refusing to protect vital services, to diluting scrutiny and axing jobs: yesterday’s meeting sadly gave us a glimpse of what’s in store for our county under Reform’s leadership.

Well done to Norfolk Labour’s Cllr Ben Weston for speaking eloquently against Reform’s thinly veiled attempt to rollback on net zero spending, and against the proposed sell-off of council care homes.

We’ll continue to stand against the divisive, ideological politics being pedalled by Reform and Restore.
