We fought to preserve the integrity & charm of Ruddington Village, Nottinghamshire. Despite this, 250 #LocalPlanPart2 #GreenBelt houses became 578. Shameful! 😡

On Asher Lane, someone had put notes on every parked car saying 'Don't park your works vehicle outside my house, park it outside your own' a few weeks ago. Who did it is a mystery.

Hay @Rushcliffe @nottspolice can you do something about dangerous parking blocking pavements and junction views on Elms Park Ruddington. People using it as a parknwalk to avoid road works on Loughborough Rd. It's the same on market day. @westbridgfdwire @RuddingtonPC – at Ruddington, England

“Shutting the gate after the horse has bolted” springs to mind… 🙎🏻 I quite agree that we’ve had more than enough new housing in Rushcliffe. But it’s funny how all the Conservative Councillors not only kept quiet before - but also voted all this new housing through!! 🤷🏻

It has been a whole year since #Ruddington Parish Council took the net from the goalpost in Sellors Field play area because of a complaint from a homeowner about footballs coming close to their property. Yes, the park has been there for decades. Yes, they *are* new homes. 🤯

I don't have school-age children, but isn't it time a secondary school was built in Ruddington? If there's a slight chance of a photo opportunity, Ruth might take her hands out of her pockets long enough to pen a letter about the use of money intended for Ruddington pupils.

@ProtectRudd @RUDDINGTON_info seems to be happening in many places and no one is stopping it!
Until Wednesday, this was a huge hedge in Sawston, South Cambridge, that was a haven for sparrows and other birds and wildlife. Why did you chop it down, @Redrow? Why in the middle of the nesting season? @ChrisGPackham, @RSPBEngland, @SouthCambs, @RobGMacfarlane

If the bods at #RBC aren’t listening what about our local MP @Ruthedwardsmp2 supporting Ruddington residents?
