I was delighted to have celebrated 10 years as an MP this month and there’s been so many people who have helped throughout the years, those in my team who made a big impact and supported so many local people, but Shirley has been by my side from the beginning.
Having previously worked for Michael Meacher Shirley brought huge experience with her, and being Oldham through and through she knows the town inside and out.
Thanks for everything Shirley, for me personally and for the thousands of local people you’ve helped make such a difference to.
We couldn’t do without you, and looking forward to the years ahead 
Jim McMahon OBE MP
