I really don't think this news has made sufficient shock waves. Dr Katherine Calvin, NASA Chief Scientist Trump-Musk just fired, is the highest ranking American on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the IPCC. She is co-chair of Working Group 3 on mitigation. This is a climate attack.

Councillor Dartnall is 💯 correct. The #Shrewsbury North West Relief Road has been a Tory scandal from start to finish. An over budget, out of date, climate wrecking road to ruin @liliangreenwood.bsky.social @rosemary4column.bsky.social @heidialexander.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Hoping someone is paying attention at Shropshore Council. Cancel the NWRR and get the £39m spend to date written off while you still can! www.highwaysmagazine.co.uk/DfT-throws-N...

Norfolk CC ignored warnings, wasted £56M of public funds, and failed to plan a viable Plan B for the Western Link. Blaming bats & Natural England is deflection. We demand accountability & resignations. Norfolk deserves better—enough is enough. www.edp24.co.uk/news/2497154...

Public ownership of water isn’t just popular—it’s common sense. MPs must take bold action on the sewage crisis. Ask yours to attend @labourlewis.bsky.social’s Clean Water drop-in on 18th March and show their support. Take action now: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell... #ourwaterourway

🧵 1️⃣ UPDATE Last week Shropshire Council published the draft Full Business Case for the #Shrewsbury North West Relief Road (NWRR). Campaigners say it's "a total work of fiction riddled with so much misinformation, it would make Donald Trump blush." But there's more...👇 @heidialexander.bsky.social

Wyle Cop, #Shrewsbury. Locally known as "the Cop". This beautiful historic street full of independent shops is the main excuse people give for not cycling anywhere in our town at all - "how are we going to cycle up the Cop?" Forget what you think you know, #E-bikes are the future. #ActiveTravel

This week's impressive Climate Change Committee report makes a rock solid case for net zero. BUT it recommends a major program of new fossil fuel infrastructure—giving Big Oil exactly what it wants. Why that’s a bad mistake, and what the alternative is. 🧵

We can't go on like this. Huge financial waste, terrible contract control, and zero transparency. The moment this meeting ends we’re getting back out on the doorstep in Conservative seats to campaign. We need a new Liberal Democrat administration which can stop the rot and fix our county.

Jurors have an absolute right to acquit a defendant according to their conscience. They must hear the whole truth. It is anti-democratic for judges to withhold evidence from jurors. It is corrupt for judges to refuse jurors their rights in law. www.defendourjuries.org

"The council needs an ‘off-ramp’ strategy to prevent a scenario where council tax payers have to pick up the bill" Campaigners have been warning about this since 2019. Council said it would be fine. Now we face a £150m shortfall + UNLIMITED overrun costs. Taxpayers on the hook! t.co/xU4yl7QfKy

😱 New docs show the North West Relief Road really will bankrupt #Shropshire. Total cost now £215m (!) and Oxon Link Road section up from £17.9m to £52.7m!!! Cancelling it will cost £38.9m from the skint revenue budget 😱😱😱🚗💥

The Conservatives want to spend £200m on 1 four mile road in Shrewsbury. (which they don’t have the money for) There are 74 divisions on Shropshire Council. That’s £2.7m for every community in the county. #letsfixshropshire #72daystofixshropshire
