What an offer. I have passed on to the Council an email from the Country's largest publishing house to help provide free of charge adults and children's books. Spellow Library will be not just renewed but will be even better than before.

Two months in prison for the thug rioter who smashed the windows out of a police car. While the Just Stop Oil protesters get 4 and 5 YEARS for a peaceful protest. WTF 🤷

Anyone involved in criminal disorder or violent thuggery on UK streets will have to pay the price 👇

Everywhere in the UK: RIOTS Meanwhile, in York: …

STATEMENT ON PRIDE: While we understand #Pride organisers' frustrations with Labour and the Conservatives' swithering on LGBT+ and especially trans+ rights of late, we are sickened to our core to be lumped with them in a blanket suspension on parties attending major Prides. 1/4
