Today I joined Newham Labour Mayoral Candidate 2026, Forhad Hussain, local Councillors, activists and 2026 candidates, to carry out a series of street surgeries across Newham - Green Street (which I missed), West Ham, Canning Town and Little Ilford.
There were also a number of other street surgeries elsewhere in Newham and tomorrow another full programme.
In some of the surgeries, I led teams on the Labour Party doorstep app, while on others I knocked on doors and asked residents if they had any issues or problems with the Council that they wished to discuss with Forhad or our Labour teams.
I only came across entirely local issues regarding parking, street cleaning and rubbish/waste collection and disposal. Resident were generally very pleased that we were there knocking on doors and asking for their views but many were also out Christmas shopping or away on holidays.
There was blue skies and sunshine, a little cold but dry, you could not get better weather at this time of the year to go "On the Knocker".
