Knocking on doors around Belmore Road, it is clear people want change. There were local concerns about antisocial behaviour and drug dealing. The bin lorry had nearly knocked over a lamppost, leaving it at a precarious angle. A couple of Kurdish gentlemen were keen to talk about their experiences in Eastbourne. I was happy to share my experience of visiting Erbil to meet with parliamentarians in northern Iraq, at the heart of the Kurdish region. We are getting a great response to Labour’s message of change.
