What more can we add

It’s about reducing waste

It’s about reducing the #CostOfLiving

Something to think about this #BlackFriday
If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

Notwithstanding the damage to the signage

The state of the pavement and cycle routes

All pretty dangerous with wet leaves when compared to the cleared road

Why do local authorities think dirty and dangerous paths are acceptable but dirty and dangerous roads aren’t

Is it just me or are farmers causing havoc in London being treated differently to @just-stopoil.bsky.social demonstrators?

Patriotism and prejudice in the UK’s ‘Raise the Colours’ campaign

The red-cross flag of St George has become a common sight in recent times – is it for a shared love of country or a ‘Keep Out’ sign?

How do we encourage more children to cycle to school?
Why do relatively few children cycle to school in the UK, despite the obvious benefits?

Disappointed with the BBC’s reply on The Celebrity Traitors and the rise in interest in the large SUVs it features. They say it’s not advertising because no money changed hands. But these vehicles are dangerous for pedestrians, cyclists and children and repeated screen time inevitably drives demand.

We are loving @americanfietser.bsky.social’s #TreeByBike series

How are you bringing your Christmas Tree home?

(Consider one that is pot grown so you can reuse it next year and onwards)

Is Sir @eddavey.libdems.org.uk rattled by the Green Party. Is that why he became the latest leading politician to mention our leader @zackpolanski.bsky.social, this time on @sophyridge.bsky.social

Sir Ed is the person actively encouraging Tories to join his party in September

This morning Green MPs attended a critical briefing on the climate and nature crisis.

Climate breakdown threatens our food supply, health and national security but an alternative future is still possible.

Useful point by @simonmarksfsn.bsky.social on @mrjamesob.bsky.social’s @lbc.co.uk show

This government can’t even say to Trump and the US government that there is no evidence of “white genocide” in South Africa

Why? Your silence is complicit in disinformation

"This is a really obvious thing the Government should do: tax wealth fairly."

@elliechowns.bsky.social outlines what the Green Party would have done differently at the Budget to cut bills by taxing wealth fairly.

Migration policy is being driven by fear of Reform not by rational thought

'a fall in net migration of 300,000 a year would increase deficit by c. £20bn'

We will all feel poorer and Reform will just find another group to blame this on

Labour need to find the courage to take on the racist rhetoric

Seems that what is possibly the busiest cycle route in the borough was closed without warning or consideration of cyclists. #SkerneRoad

We wanted to put in a workplace car parking levy locally and it was proposed by our then-Green cllr in the budget a few years back

Sadly LibDems chose to ignore it out of hand

Why?

A revenue raiser ignored for more congestion and air pollution

We still support this levy
Every city should now implement a tourist tax and a workplace car parking levy, using the money to fund local priorities such as public transport and active travel infrastructure.

Christmas come early for the clickbait factories:

"I will have to keep the sauna off in my pied-à-terre due to Labour's HAMMER blow to middle-classes"
the next couple of days are going to see a hell of a lot of "the rich declare themselves poor"

Today's UK budget could have delivered for people and planet by taking on the rich and powerful.
