Many streets in East Herts Council area are damaged by this and there was a recent accident in Hertford due to poorly replaced cobbles on Market Street that Hertfordshire County Council and HCC Highways failed to repair. But the costs of such repairs should be for the utility companies to pay. Pls sign

I've just seen seven people get on the 395 towards Sele from Hertford town centre, each carrying bags or a trolley with shopping. Eight including me. The assumption held by some that it's only those driving who spend at our businesses simply doesn't stack up.

I'm not a Strictly follower, but can't get enough of watching Chris McCausland - New tour on sale now! 🎫 & dianne buswell! Chris became a comedian after losing his sight in his 20s. Learning these moves without just being able to watch them is quite something! Here's the latest: youtu.be/dearqPiysbY?si…

Depressing news that Govt may approve bee-killing pesticide despite election promise to ban it - & outrageous that British Sugar has applied to use neonics for 5th year, despite industry commitment to end reliance in 2023. Govt must act to protect bees 🐝 theguardian.com/environment/20…

In a competitive field this is one of the worst things I have ever read on climate change and net zero. A complete failure to understand either the pace of the clean tech revolution or the severity of the climate crisis. It is tacit climate denial and defeatism in equal measure.

Today is World Mental Health Day - although every day should be mental health day. Often we just don't fully know what's going on for others, and it can be hard to know what to say even if we do. But I think even a simple "I'm thinking of you" message can make a real difference.

While some Restoring Your Railways schemes might be reviewed by the Department for Transport, the claim that cancelling the programme will save £85m sends a signal that Gov is unlikely to prioritise rail reopenings any time soon. New blog by Enroute: bettertransport.org.uk/blog/restoring…

Earlier today three of our trustees met with our MP Chris Hinchliff MP who was keen to learn about our campaign to reopen our local swimming pool and has offered his help and support. Thank you!

Hopefully the water at full spate will clear the way to the ditch but we will check in a month or so and extend if necessary Hopefully, once Thames Water 💧 confirm the drain is now fully cleared this will stop flooding on Cromwell Rd krahertford

Had a helpful meeting with Josh Dean and krahertford on Friday to discuss next steps on the Hertford bus station waiting room. Sadly, despite the petition and multiple contact attempts with Chase, we've yet to have a response or meeting. We will continue working on it though!

Interesting how many, on the back of my PM poll, talk about politicians as crooks, or only it it for themselves My own experience, having met, worked with, & spoken to scores of MPs from all parties, is the vast majority (though not all) are, in my view, doing it for the right

It’s as if none of the work on sustainable economies ever happened. Starmer bangs on about “growth” but growth of what, for whom, at what cost? Not all growth is good & as scientists concluded last week “In a world of finite resources, unlimited growth is a perilous illusion”.
