How can they get away with being so ridiculously inept. Biggest public health crisis of our time and we’ve been failed massively. Restrictions without evidence and a test and trace system that doesn’t work!😭🤦🏻‍♀️. Killing us socially and economically. #borishasfailedtheuk

Heartfelt congratulations to Oldham rugby legend Kevin Sinfield on receiving a CBE and Oldham artist Brian Clarke, on receiving a knighthood in the New Year Honours. Their achievements are truly extraordinary, inspiring future generations in Oldham. We couldn’t be more proud.

2/5:Testing is a key part of our fight back so how are we supposed to hit a testing target that demands asymptomatic testing. The biggest most difficult public health issue of our generation and they clearly haven't got a grip but are okay to lay the blame at our door.

Creating a hostile environment to cover up a broken system isn’t leadership. We’ve been door to door with residents who understand we step up to support those seeking asylum - while some councils are allowed to turn the other cheek. #ChaddertonSouth #WeAreOldham

3/5:Spent the day speaking to concerned residents who are already doing there best in such challenging circumstances. A mother who got turned away from one site went to another to be turned away again terrified and rightly concerned for the welfare of her child.
