Nine months after Stowmarket station’s new lifts were installed, they are still not working.
I raised residents’ frustrations directly with Greater Anglia and, following my intervention, signs have now gone up explaining the delay.
That’s welcome - but Stowmarket still needs working lifts.

Tomorrow those living in Hethersett Ward get to vote for change.
I hope you’ve seen what a difference I’ve made as your first Labour MP since 1950: just imagine what more we can do with a Labour councillor rooted in the community.
Tomorrow vote local. Vote Labour. Vote Ben Weston.

Reform's First 100 Days in Norfolk: 'Flag Fights, Resignations, Broken Promises'
A newly-elected Labour councillor charts 100 days of a Reform-run county council – scrapped funds, a resigned chief executive, a lost by-election, and not much sign of the 'laser focus on value for money'

A newly elected £79,000-a-year police commissioner is facing criticism for announcing a 127-date national theatre tour.
Sutton insisted the tour "wouldn't impinge" on his day job, but Labour MP Ben Goldsborough warned "you can't police a county from the back of a tour bus".

Fly-tipping appears overnight, taxpayers pick up the bill and the same hotspots are hit again and again.
South Norfolk Council needs new thinking: mobile CCTV, catch the criminals, seize their vans and hit them with every penalty possible.
Labour has given them these powers. They must use them.

James Lovelock is one of the greatest climate scientists that ever lived.
We're about find out how on point his statements from over 18 years ago were.
