Proud to be leading Exeter City Council and supporting Steve Race, Exeter’s Labour Member of Parliament.
Our MP @steveracemp.bsky.social and Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson MP talk about how Labour is giving children in Exeter the best start in life, from new free breakfast clubs to bringing back Sure Start style services and lifting the two child limit.
Lovely to be back on the @exeterlabour.bsky.social #laboursoorstep today with @steveracemp.bsky.social & our wonderful local councillors. Overwhelming support for Keir’s approach to Iran & real concern about what a Reform, Tory or Green Government would be doing in these circumstances.
NEW: Our Labour Council is launching Pride in Exeter, with £130,000 of new investment, giving every ward £10,000 to improve neighbourhoods, from tidying green spaces to fixing small repairs 🌳 🏡 ❤️
We are exceptionally proud to be building council homes of the highest quality across the city. Our new homes are built to Passivhaus standard, meaning we’re leading the way with innovative, environmentally friendly house-building to lower bills and meet our ambitious climate goals 🏡
Spound call by Exeter City Council. It would have been a total waste of council officers’ time & public money to hold this year’s annual elections for a third of seats when there will be all-out elections to the new unitary council next year www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great news from the Education Secretary this morning that our city will host the region’s Technical Excellence College to help train the next generation of construction workers, putting Exeter at the forefront of growth and opportunity for the South West 🦺 🔨
Exeter Labour is proud to stand with the trans community and we’ll continue to ensure our city remains an inclusive and welcoming place for all 🏳️⚧️ @steveracemp.bsky.social
Great morning of canvassing in St Thomas yesterday followed by an afternoon enjoying the Love St Thomas Summer Festival, organised and run by an incredible team of community volunteers. Our Labour MP, local councillors and volunteers knock on doors all year round, not just election times!
A well-deserved honorary doctorate from @exeter.ac.uk for Dr Ben Bradshaw 🎓 27 years as our Member of Parliament, the first openly gay MP to be elected - alongside Stephen Twigg - and a great friend and confidante to so many of us in Exeter Labour. Congratulations, @benbradshaw.bsky.social!
At the weekend, we celebrated The Beacon’s 10th birthday. Originally a Sure Start centre, the team stepped in when funding ended to make it the success it is today. We are thrilled that Labour is bringing back Sure Start-style services that the Tories dismantled. @steveracemp.bsky.social
