Ex-Cllr Hopkins new newsletter is full of wild inaccuracies re Broadwalk. Fails to mention his shameful uncritical support for previous scheme & claims “objectors will have achieved their aims of…degrading our town centre”.Beyond reason or parody. Time to retire for common good?

Ed is being generous here… Hopkins latest ramblings show that he knows far far less about the new plans than almost anyone else in knowle, he didn’t come to the public meetings so now he’s just making wild assumptions rather than simply asking us for a factual update…

The real division? Money Vs Democracy. Time to make sure we win.

Lovely to get out with local volunteers in Victoria Park today sowing wild seeds. This is one of several patches and we hope it will encourage moths and beetles, then in turn to help bats, mice and owls. VPAG TRESA

The Committee on Climate Change that advises the government says we need no net expansion in air travel. The West's Metro Mayor talks of the economic growth brought by the airport. She doesn't get it. Climate change isn't good for the economy.

Yesterday, the Mayor and Bristol City Council's Deputy Leader welcomed National Active Travel Commissioner Chris Boardman CBE to Bristol. Across the West, with Active Travel England and councils, we’re investing in better walking, cycling, and wheeling routes. More: tinyurl.com/ChrisBoardmanB…

We just witnessed Japan's hottest day in recorded history again: 41.8°C (107.2°F). The longevity and intensity of this historic heatwave is hard to comprehend.

Great to see Bristol getting back on the active travel map.
