THANK you to everyone who voted for me, giving me the opportunity to hold onto my seat for the Labour Party for the fourth term.

It has always been both an honour and privilege to serve.

I will do my utmost to support the people of Tilbury Riverside and Thurrock Park by the grace of God.

I would also like to thank some wonderful friends and Labour Party activists who committed their time and efforts to making my election campaign as effective as possible, and getting me re-elected.

Whilst this election hasbeen a tough one, I have really enjoyed the campaign over the many months.

I have spoken to hundreds of people at doorsteps picking up lots of casework and fresh ideas which will help improve peoples’ lives, and the ward.
