RT @sianberry: Greens in the Assembly are very concerned to keep bus fares as low as possible, and for the Mayor to consider outer London when making any changes in fare rates. @CarolineRussell has been asking all the key questions, and continues this morning:

RT @EmilyLincOBrien: A maths puzzle for new fan of maths, Rishi Sunak:
If today's food inflation is 13%, and of that, healthy food inflation is 15% while unhealthy food is 11%, what does that mean for the diets of hardworking nurses' families offered a 4% pay increase?

@HRRBFireSafety @michaellondonsf @TheGreenParty Wonder what the @EnergySvgTrust has to say about this. I took their advice over a decade ago and saw my usage of energy and bills drop considerably.

We have the least energy efficient homes in Europe. It’s been known about for decades. Both current and past governments have been asleep at the wheel over insulating homes. They’ve pandered too much to the fossil fuel industry & failed the people of the UK. Join @TheGreenParty

This is just awful. @LambethLabour and @lambeth_council have run Central Hill Estate into the ground and systematically failed the residents. Get a grip! Fix up these properties now and get people living in these homes. That will stop disasters like this happening.
RT @pete556: A film I made earlier - sorry I sound so downbeat but this is all really depressing. The @lambeth_council housing strategy is negligent and causing huge health issues while around 7000 resi…

This is the sort of ambition London needs to change from being a carbon factory to a city leading the world on hitting the net zero carbon target by 2030.
RT @sianberry: 🚌🚊🚴🏾🚶♀️🚶🏿👏 Better ways to use the Silvertown Road Tunnel. Great coverage of our ‘brochure’ of Londoners’ new ideas from New Civil Engineer this morning. The Mayor really needs to look again at this £2 billion project.
