School Streets should be encouraged for our children's health and wellbeing. The current level of congestion outside schools is completely unsustainable. @mumsforlungs.bsky.social @sustrans.bsky.social @londoncycling.bsky.social @cyclehavering.bsky.social

Every personal attack.

Every attempt to distract or to divide.

It energises, strengthens and empowers our movement.

I've found my political home in the #GreenParty, and @zackpolanski.bsky.social is a great political weathervane.
I do the stuff I do & he's never far away. Today, we bumped into him at the National Alternative Remembrance Ceremony; I'm quite used to seeing him around supporting peace & justice ✊🏻🕊️

The Labour Party - and Steve Reed - is completely out of touch with reality.

Landlords don't build homes; they drive up prices and suck away our wages. Housing should be a right, not a commodity.

Abolish landlords.
House everyone.

I can't really tell you how much the music of Malcolm Middleton has meant to me over the years. Safe to say he's a sweetie and an emotional force of nature for me.
He remembered my name which was so lovely. Thank you Malcy for another wonderful gig - on a fucking pirate ship no less! ❤️
