MK Councillor for Bletchley East and former Mayor
“It has been a privilege to work so closely with Emily over many years: giving a voice and a commitment to all of Bletchley’s different communities. Everyone loves Emily and warms to her as soon they meet her. She is just the MP we need.”
MK Councillor for Bletchley West
"I’ve had the pleasure of being on MK Council with Emily for the last three years, two years of which we’ve served in the Cabinet together. She is hardworking, dedicated to her residents and empathetic. I have no doubt she will serve the people of MK South with an absolute commitment to what is just and fair, always putting her constituents first and upholding the absolute highest of standards in Parliament - something I think we can all agree has been sorely missing for the last decade! I will be putting myself forward for MK North, and know it will be an absolute privilege to hit the ground running working side-by-side with Emily as we head towards the next General Election, ready to be the accessible, diligent and tenacious candidates that the city of Milton Keynes deserves."
Labour Group Leader
“The people of Milton Keynes need a Labour government and a Labour Member of Parliament. Emily is the person to ensure that will happen. She’ll work tirelessly for our city and has all the right skills to be the best possible MP that MK needs when she’s elected.”
MK Councillor for Stantonbury
“Emily has helped me so much, always encouraging me and believing in me. She’s like that with everyone, especially women, always urging them to put themselves forward and encouraging them make the most of opportunities. Every time I had a moment of feeling ‘I cannot do this’ Emily would encourage me and remind me why I am doing something. Emily is a lady of high integrity and always stands by her beliefs and respect of others!”
MK Councillor for CMK
“Emily is a woman after my own heart. She is strong, determined and resilient but also loving, caring and, above all, passionate. In a room full of men in suits, she will command attention and always have her say. But when all is said and done, she will put her arm around her comrades, to celebrate our victories and encourage us all to fight again after set backs. You simply can’t keep her down! She is irrepressible.”
“Emily is a committed campaigner for global justice and migrant rights. She was instrumental in organizing the warm welcome for Afghan refugees in Milton Keynes and Labour’s solidarity actions for Black Lives Matter and stand with Ukraine. She’s a true internationalist.”
BFTC Councillor
“Emily is always available for community events because she loves to meet people and listen to what they’ve got to say. She’s always the first to arrive and the last to leave because she always wants to talk to everyone in the room.”
MK Councillor for Woughton and Fishermead
“Emily is a champion of the whole city and our different diverse communities. She's determined and persistent and she won't take 'no' for an answer. That's the kind of MP we need and she's got my full support.”
MK Councillor for Bletchley East / Chair MKC Labour Group
“Emily is a brilliant team player and absolutely loads of fun to campaign with. I can’t think of a better MP for the city and I know she will be fearless in speaking up for the residents as I see who her doing daily was my ward colleague.”
MK Councillor for CMK
“What can I say about Emily that hasn’t already been said? She’s blooming brilliant. When she walks like an MP and talks like and MP, you almost forgot that she isn’t an MP. The Tories won’t know what’s hit them!”
BAME Officer for MK CLP
“Emily has been serving the community as a hardworking Councillor and she has a proven record of solving problems effectively. She is dedicated to the cause and has the communication skills required to engage with the public. I think that she would be an excellent candidate.”
MK Councillor for Stony Stratford
"I have known Emily for the past seven years, first meeting her during the 2015 general election campaign. She is someone who, once she sets her mind on something, will work until it is achieved. Committed and dedicated to a fairer, more just society I have no doubt that the dedication and passion she has shown whilst being deputy leader of the Labour Group on Milton Keynes Council will only be magnified as our PPC and ultimately an MP for Milton Keynes. Combined with Lauren Townsend in MK North, we would have an unstoppable team, working towards a fairer, greener Milton Keynes for everyone."
