Can Ian Barnes and Nesil Caliskan explain why they are diverting congestion and pollution onto a deprived area to provide for the pressure group ….. up to 12 hours congestion….. – at Enfield, London
This sign says it all. Non residential road closed off that leads to Primary road A406 for the LCC. Instead they DIVERT all congestion and pollution onto deprived residential roads. These roads have a multicultural diverse mixture of residents. Most from the BAME community. 1/2

While the affluent Better Streets for Enfield displaced cars away from them and there homes.They decided to push congestion onto a deprived part of the borough to stop cars using a non residential road so the LCC get there way …environmental racism is alive and well @willnorman – at Camden Town, London

What should you do if you can't afford the Mayor's £12.50 daily ULEZ charge, can't afford a new car, but still need a car to get around? I asked the Mayor and wasn't expecting this!

As predicted. It's the police's fault.

Why are @EnfieldCouncil removing all bins in the Bowes ward ? Each time a rubbish issue is reported they just take the bins away …. Photo on right taken this morning….. our children have to play and walk around this ….

Anyone else notice this …… our local LCC pressure group Better Streets for Enfield and advocates are all almost all affluent, white, middle class residents who live within the LTNs …… how do they know how a working class ethnic person is feeling when all they do is dictate?

One of the biggest lies I have ever seen on Twitter…. If anyone can show me saying I’m against school streets on Grenoble Gardens then I will close my account.I want a school street here but council prefer to push congestion here instead. Up to 101% increase on a rd they walk on

More @UKLabour councillors for you.
Replying to @jonburkeUK
@jonburkeUK Jon, you making any comment on this? Hackney Council confirms there were 21 individual complaints against you of sufficient merit to be put before a standards committee but you resigned before it sat.

We need a Prime Minister who will push back against divisive ideologies being taught in schools. Someone who’ll stand up against indoctrination of young minds with woke ideas about race, gender, sexuality. Someone who isn’t afraid to speak the truth.

Jo Farrell, the Durham Chief Constable, gets a new 3 year contract worth £550,000 on 17-Jun awarded by the Labour PCC Joy Allen. Three weeks later, both Starmer & Rayner escape a fine as the announcement is buried in the furore around Boris. Nothing to see here is there?

Labour claims to care about the costs of living, yet their ULEZ expansion and support for the strikes only adds to the burden. Also has anyone received that £600 @Keir_Starmer promised……? #Conservatives
