Jeremy Corbyn wishes me luck

On the eve of the Newington by-election in January, I received a message of support from Jeremy Corbyn. The Labour Party leader spent several hours in Newington with me during the general election in 2015, so is familiar with the area. Along with the tremendous support provided by friends, colleagues and the residents of Newington, this letter meant a lot to me in the successful battle to regain the seat from UKIP.

Additionally, as the by election happened to fall on my daughter’s 18th birthday, Jeremy sent her a card too!
