Bridget Phillipson Labour MP for Houghton and Sunderland South speaking in 2019
A difficult campaign for Bridget Phillipson from Washington, Tyne and Wear.
The Member of Parliament for Houghton and Sunderland South since 2010 was both anti-Brexit and anti-Corbyn. Most folks in Houghton-le-Spring and Sunderland South held different views.
If even just some of the other parties, who stood against Bridget, had organised themselves behind a single pro-Brexit candidate then Bridget would have lost her seat in 2019.
Brexit was the only real issue at the election, it was never mentioned in her official video. Phillipson lost nearly 1 in 5 of her supporters and scraped by with a thin majority of 3,115 people.

Same here 1968-75
I served my apprenticeship and worked in the electric and armature winding shops between 1966 - 1973. From these pictures I can see that the warehouse, foundry, tractor shop, and other shops have now gone. Such is progress.
