Appreciation post coming up🙏 Have just been called for a routine NHS test. We are so, so lucky to have our #NHS with its free screening services for all manner of ailments. We need to fight to keep it, because we won't know what's hit us when it's gone @keepournhspublic.bsky.social

At the end of July, when they started their leadership election, The Green Party had 62,500 members.
This is about a 30% increase in membership in just a couple of months. Absolutely incredible!

For the past couple of years @bcpcouncil.bsky.social have let about one third of our local recreation ground go a bit wild. The rest of the park is mown for football, cricket etc, but this bit has reverted to meadow. I think it is SO beautiful, and have emailed the relevant team to tell them so! 😍

A very clear response from London Fire Commissioner, Andy Rowe to a question at Fire Plenary last week from Emma Best AM about the impact of LTNs on fire brigade attendance times.
"We genuinely couldn't find any evidence of LTNs doing anything to our overall attendance times".

Exactly. How?
This is the main concern of particularly northern Labour MPs.
It's all very well to commit to building projects in the north as well but if you are building major southern airport capacity, the Lower Thames Crossing and a new silicon valley there are only so many engineers in the country...

I'd love to see a proper analysis of how we're going to find the people to build the third runway at Heathrow, several new reservoirs, 1.5 million houses and various other new infrastructure without mass imigration.

The expansion of #Heathrow isn't only about climate breakdown, it's about fairness too
A small minority of people take the majority of flights yet the pollution & climate breakdown affect everyone, especially the poorest

Heathrow already causes significant #AirPollution from planes flying over London and from passengers using local roads to travel to the airport. This is incredibly frustrating and disappointing. #Health #London
