As we start a year of hope for peace in Ukraine, take a moment to listen to the Dream Passes by the Windows, a love letter to its embattled people, sung by Dorset County Hospital choir @DCHFT @ArtsInHospital @shascreenplay @AlastairFeeBBC youtu.be/vkThOmajwcI

National Grid is trying to fell a 300-year old oak it promised to save. (The farmer even checked this morning that they would keep their promise and they said yes). This afternoon he finds out they were lying and WERE going to fell it. He has stopped them - for good?

Oh come on @mhclg this new legislation from 31st October is REMOVING power from communities and it’s elected councillors ..this is merely to speed up the approval process for unsustainable development by unelected officers..democracy is being overruled and you know it. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cmn0…

@AngelaRayner and this out of touch government will not listen! The new National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) rules make it even harder for communities to object to unsustainable development…..every common sense reason for refusal no longer apply in the same way…what’s worse the new rules apply immediately even to applications already under consideration, meaning communities hard work campaigns are now pointless.

When the Guardian went on strike to protest the Observer sale, I became a de facto spokesperson. Later a Tortoise employee I’d never met wrote to me to cancel my 20-year contract. No goodbye & no pay-off. This is how they now take credit for my work..but write me out of the story

Tory Conference off to a flyer... 🌳 Scrap Natural England so it's easier to trash our environment. 🧊 Lower standards so homes are colder and bills are more expensive. 🗳️ Leave the Aarhus Convention to restrict local democracy. A plan to make developers richer & lives worse.

The end of ‘summer’ - a patty pan squash, outdoor cucumber and tomato big enough for a Caprese salad for one

All in the name of the grid upgrade. These will be gone by this evening.

Dear Chris - could you come and be our MP in Dorset ?
The National Planning Policy Framework is a spectacular failure. All at once, it ignores communities, fails to build homes we need, and is a labyrinth of empty process that doesn’t protect the environment or uphold decent housing standards. Scrap the lot and start again.

"Southern Water fined £2.4m over multiple incidents of sewage pollution in Kent." That of course is on top of the £7.1 million they were fined back in July, the £90 million they were fined back in 2021, or the 107 environmental offences they've been found guilty of in the last 15 years. Really, what is the point? itv.com/news/meridian/2026-0…

The housing crisis began when the state stepped back. Profiteers took over, and homes became assets instead of places to live. Housing is a necessity, not a commodity. It can't be left to markets. We need a plan to build affordable homes that meet people's needs.

Well it would be if we hadn’t had three or is it four heatwaves in the UK, especially on the Dorset Rivieria 😜
Another rather annoying picture from the #Aegean … ❤️🇬🇷
