One of ‘those women who best embody the Bristol spirit of rebellion’ (Bristol Post - March ‘25)
Just been up to the unauthorised van dwellers site on council owned land in Southmead. On Bramble Road (where families live) it stinks of wood burning smoke.

This is anti-social behaviour and having a high impact on local residents health.

Enough is enough, it’s time the council took action.

Southmead residents spoke to BBC Radio Bristol about van dwellers on Lanercost Road in Southmead. Imposing things with poor consultation appears to be a theme with this Green led council.

You can hear some of their comments and part of my interview with Claire Cavanagh here (clipped for Bluesky):-
