Redundancy beckons, giving me the escape velocity to leave the council that I have been working for for the past 18 months! Glad to be out! New job required!

@LutfurRahmanTH Great ad for TH recycling showing at the Genesis Cinema.
Pity recycling sacks are rarely available from the Ideas Stores.
Lack of an overall #recycling strategy?

In Gaza is it an unimaginable reality.
No one can ignore what Hamas did on 7 October. It was unambiguously wrong.
But we cannot ignore what Israel is doing either. It is not proportionate. It is way beyond self defence. It too is unambiguously wrong.
