Batley and Spen MP Kim LeadbeaterI am deeply saddened by the announcement that Her Majesty the Queen has died. I know people across Batley and Spen will be mourning her passing and remembering her long and loyal service to the nation.
Most of us have never known life without her and the example of her dedication and selflessness has been a constant inspiration. For over seventy years she helped strengthen our communities and bind the nation together.
My thoughts and sympathy are with the Royal Family at this extremely sad time.”

The Mayor of Kirklees, Coun Masood Ahmed, makes an official statement
The Mayor of Kirklees, Coun Masood AhmedI’m sure the people of Kirklees will, like me, wish to express our condolences to the Royal Family at this sad time. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was this nation’s longest reigning monarch and throughout her 70 years on the throne, demonstrated her ongoing love for and dedication to the whole country. Her sense of duty never wavered, even in times of personal sadness and illness, and she was respected around the world.
We were lucky enough in Kirklees to have her visit on a number of occasions and I’m sure that anyone who was able to see her during those visits will remember them for a long time.”
