Northfield voted for a new direction on Thursday.

It is the honour of my life to be elected as the new Member of Parliament for the Northfield constituency. I will work hard every day to repay the trust that has been placed in Labour, and in me.

The election represented a clear mandate for changed. Labour achieved the biggest majority recorded in the seat for twenty years.

I know, however, that many people voted Labour this time to give us a chance to change things for the better, after fourteen long years of Conservative Government. It is my duty as MP to help turn our manifesto into policies that make a real and material difference to people’s lives.

At the count, I paid tribute to Gary Sambrook, who has left his mark in Northfield. I am sure that this is not the end for him in Birmingham politics.

I said that:

Labour won the two council by-elections for Kings Norton North and Northfield wards. Carmel Corrigan and Esther Rai will be brilliant representatives and I look forward to working with them to make our areas better.

I am now busy responding to correspondence, being inducted into Parliament, and setting up two offices. Job adverts for constituency staff roles will be published here, and on the W4MP website.
