GOOD MORNING #SunnyColch 😎

Lovely new Red Lion mural 🙌 More of these please #Colchester

Trying to get to the workshop and we’re stuck!
Good luck getting a buggy or wheelchair through there. Surely this is unacceptable and unsustainable on every level?
Engine running behind me too “it’s nice and cool in here”
Last mile delivery needs to happen @yourcolchester @FedEx

Beth Chatto looking SPECTACULAR 🌹💐🌸🌺🌷🌻 Even more so with 25% discount for cyclists 👌 More should follow #Essex

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

@FaySmalls Yeah, but you need cooperation to build consensus. Lovable Lee was lacking in any of that. Quite the PLAYER

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

If you listened to the debate, you would have heard that the objections were about the way you attempted to politicise the Police. Alternatives and co-operation were offered. You were in your tribal bunker at the time #Colchester

[Cllr Lee Scordis @LScordis]

Glad our motion on Anti social behaviour passed last night, with the aim of building a new strategy to make Colchester safer.

It's very disappointing that The Tories, two Lib Dems and a Green councillor could not support it. They offered no other alternatives.

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Finail item is Q's to Councillors. We're done. BAILING. Cheers for your company. Until next time. Maybe...

Cllr Dundas summing up his Management Companies Motion. Voted unanimoulsy #Colchester

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Lab Cllr J Young on management companies: "I've fought the West Quay developers in #Wivenhoe for 20 years. Part of the footpath is falling into the river." Really?

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Lab Cllr Scordis: "I can't think of a bigger con than management companies."

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

LibDem Cllr Goss: "There is nothing this Council can do to influence management companies, apart from harassing and embarassing them" #Colchester

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Second request of "Come together as one" for the evening. SHOUT OUT Tory Cllr Bentley.

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

We're in danger of a unanimous Motion being passed here #Colchester

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Second Amendment now being heard from LibDem Cllr Cory #Colchester Make it all end

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Lab Cllr Rippingale moving her Amendment to the Management Companies Motion #Colchester

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Final Motion is Tory submission on Management Companies. Critical of management companies regarding housing developments #Colchester

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

LibDem Housing Motion approve purely on party political lines. Lab pals backed up the LibDems. Tory Group abstained. Full Council is not whipped. Nope #Colchester

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Cllr King: "This is signal sending." And that's positive?

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Lab's Cllr J Young: "You can't pass a council house to your family. We need to work together. I'm pleased with the Renter's Reform Bill in the King's Speech. I don't think a #Colchester moritorium is even possible."

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

@UnholyTom1980 They could always come to Full Council...

[Colchester Chronicle @ColchChronic]

Cllr Scordis calls for a named vote, aka playing poxy party poltics. Seconded by Cllr T Young. Who knew?
