Planning Committee tomorrow. I'm hopeful councillors will recognise this is THE chance of a decade to bring it back to life:

This makes for a great April Fools Day joke, but it's an outrageous everyday reality that politicians do this. There's a revolving door between Westminster and the fossil fuel industry and it's got to stop. More on my debate in Parliament on this:

Heartbreaking, indefensible and unacceptable that the IDF have killed humanitarian workers trying to save lives and provide food to desperate people in a famine. The UK Government must hold the Israeli Govt to account.

There can be no place for antisemitism or hate of any form in our city - the rise in antisemitism and islamophobia is deeply concerning and should be condemned wherever it occurs

Renters rights delayed, diluted and now trampled on by Gove's capitulation to his Tory landlord MPs. Renters will be rightly angry to see this letter which shows exactly whose side this Government is on.
'No fault' Section 21 evictions must be banned now

It really is crunch time for

Hippodrome and I am hopeful that
https://nitter.privacydev.net/BrightonHoveCC
will recognise that this is THE opportunity of more than a decade to bring this beautiful and historic venue back into use.

This would be a perfect time for
https://nitter.privacydev.net/Keir_Starmer
to clarify his plan for water. Public ownership is the only way to get a grip, so why won't

back it?

Investors can see the writing on the wall for
https://nitter.privacydev.net/search?q=%23ThamesWater
. Endless sewage, supply outages and no money to sort it out. It's clear Thames Water cannot run this vital public service - none of these companies can. We need to bring them all into public ownership.

I asked about compliance with international humanitarian law. No answer from unelected & unaccountable Foreign Sec, platitudes from his stand in. Yes, food aid to Gaza is critical. No, it doesn’t excuse UK’s complicity in imminent famine or failure to hold Israeli Govt to account
[2024-03-28 10:23 UTC]
RT by @CarolineLucas: The tragedy is that the law is not enforced. Ofwat and the EA have the means to force the water companies to fix it at their own expense. But they lack the will. Instead Water UK wants to stuff the customers with the bill.

RT by @CarolineLucas: The Department for Transport’s update to its transport infrastructure planning policy has been highly criticised by the @TransportCttee chair and @TheGreenParty MP @CarolineLucas for its disregard of climate-related targets

Bottom trawling is destroying our marine habitats. It’s outrageous it's still allowed in our MPAs - our so-called marine ‘protected’ areas. Join me and

to demand the Govt protects wildlife, stops the destruction and bans bottom trawling in MPAs:

This is the inspiring Micheal Abatan. His brother Jay was murdered in

Unbelievable that it's come to this - a desperate citizen taking the Govt to court to force them to restore funding to UNWRA. The humanitarian situation in Gaza in catastrophic and UNWRA is the backbone of the global response. UK must follow other countries and restore funds now.

129% more shit than the year before. 4 million hours of raw sewage poured into England's waterways in 2023. Privatisation has failed. This is a crisis that cannot and will not be fixed unless we bring our water back into public hands

I tried to call on him to answer my points which he had ignored but got shown the hand. A Government with no answers and no solutions.
