Hectic but brilliant afternoons yesterday and today on the High Street market, meeting campaigning colleagues from the parties and having a chuckle at each other whilst worrying about the big issues. Meeting loads of residents who all want Whipps Cross saved. That’s the one thing that really made me stand in the end, wanting to help to save Whipps, so lots of common ground. Disaffected residents also expressing relief there is an alternative to the party quagmire, someone to vote for with values and a campaigning ethic that works for them. Great day! #vote4ellie
Mr Tamimi, one of my favourite Palestinians on the market
Lovely conversation about Tunisia, especially Sousse
Bright and sunny but remarkably cold!
