Welcome
I've been the Labour Member of Parliament for Islington North since 1983. The site is about how I can help my constituents, my activities in Parliament and my interests outside Parliament.
If you need help with local issues, please come to one of the advice surgeries listed on the right. If your problem is urgent, please contact me by letter or by email. If you'd like to know what I've been doing, you can bookmark this blog by clicking on the orange square (the RSS feed logo) above, or go to They Work For You.
Unfortunately, I cannot help people in other constituencies. If you don't know who your MP or MEP is, Write To Them will help you contact them.
Advice surgeries
No sessions are held over Christmas/New Year or on Bank Holidays, so please phone 020 7561 7488 if you are in doubt.

Islington North
Islington North covers Tufnell Park, Archway, Finsbury Park and Highbury. It is one of the constituencies with the greatest number of graduates and the highest level of social housing - and 43% of its children live in poverty.
