Campaign to get @TfL to increase the frequency of local buses across Barnes/Mortlake.

[IncreaseTheFrequency @533bus]

My understanding is that #HammersmithBridge task force, led by @CharlotteV, has overall responsibility for co-ordinating all the relevant parties (inc. @tfl) in ensuring adequate transport across the river. This includes local bus services. Is that your understanding? RT to share

@fifisyms @Conservatives @RishiSunak Political reputation over national remembrance. The leader of your party is a disgrace to the nation.

[IncreaseTheFrequency @533bus]

A question @fifisyms Given your father/grandfather’s incredible service to this country during WW1/WW2, how do you feel (if true) about the behaviour of your @Conservatives party leader @RishiSunak today? Is he getting your vote on the 4th July?

Thinking about all those vulnerable residents who couldn’t reach their GP & hospital appointments for nearly a year because #hammersmithbridge was considered at a risk of “catastrophic failure”, but today accommodating hundreds of spectators of a rowing competition..

���Seriously I can just come out and say it? Call him a liar?” asks @JonathanPieNews, a fictional broadcast reporter created and performed by comedian Tom Walker, in a satirical video about Britain’s Prime Minister.

[Mortlake & Barnes Common Labour @MortlakeLabour]

The problem with this type of presentation is that opportunity for interaction with community is zero. Lots of talking AT us not WITH us. @BreweryMortlake

[Regan @BanksRegan]

£450 a month is getting taken directly out of my wage to pay off a 2k fine for being in a house with 5 other people over lockdown. Meanwhile @BorisJohnson’s getting about throwing parties. Tell me how this is fair? #PMQs

[Paul Avon @paulavon_barnes]

I have invited Cllr Ehmann (he holds the transport brief @LBRUT) to Alder Rd next week. I want him to witness traffic chaos first hand & meet residents. Please take a look at video. Utterly appalling. Residents cannot put up with this. Eastern end of SWW similar. @BCA4Barnes

"It is clear that now is not the time to be thinking about cutting services. While commuters are thinking about how to structure their working lives, we need to incentivise rail travel and encourage commuters and other travellers to choose it. "

[Sarah Olney @sarahjolney1]

.@munirawilson: My constituents recognise the need for temporary timetables, however the proposals to permanently slash services up to 50%, often for stations where there are no tube alternatives, are unacceptable."

[IncreaseTheFrequency @533bus]

@sarahjolney1 @munirawilson Don’t forget the buses! Local bus passenger capacity has been decimated since the closure of #HammersmithBridge by @TfL. Capacity has been slashed by over 40% on some routes!

[I Z Z I @IzziFranson]

I don’t have the foggiest idea if @CharlotteV is so busy “solving” the #HGVDriverShortage that she has forgotten about “leading” the #HammersmithBridge task force? Anyone heard anything? At all? Next task force meeting date?

[IncreaseTheFrequency @533bus]

@charlie_baker23 @munirawilson @TfL @MayorofLondon Did I mention anything about pollution?

[IncreaseTheFrequency @533bus]

@charlie_baker23 @munirawilson @TfL @MayorofLondon “Excellent public transport in the area?” 🧐 Bus services have been significantly cut over the course of the last 3-5 years and TfL are currently consulting on cutting local overground services too. Local PT is patchy at best.

[Michelle Coulter @MichelleCoulter]

"Disinterest", "empathy not her strong point" "ensuring the buck is passed elsewhere" @c_blackhurst sums up @charlotteV's performance on #hammersmithbridge. And now she's in charge of solving the #hgv crisis....prepare for a long, painful winter. https://t.co/itfQTt2J9k

[Tom Hamilton @thhamilton]

Can’t believe she’s fallen on Matt Hancock’s sword

[IncreaseTheFrequency @533bus]

@CharlottaCampan But the sign says 21. 🧐
