Campaigning for better train services for Bedford, better trains, a better station & better station access.

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

We've got chances 2 improve Bedford sta, & so get better train services from Leic & 2 London. V. important 2 not miss oppo. EastWest Rail would link Bedford 2 Ox & Camb but shouldn't put over 60 homes at risk of demolition in Bedford. Please sign petition: https://t.co/7YgzVefeKp

@Golcarbob1 @BedfordGreens Bedford station is losing its intercity trains this weekend very largely because it was built for cross-platform interchanges, that required intercity trains to cross to the slow lines, adding a lot to their journey times.

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@Golcarbob1 @BedfordGreens I wonder if confusion was sown by advice re "cross-platform interchanges". Cross-platform interchanges mean going from one train to another without using stairs (or lift).

@EastGreenParty Shouldn't wins=gains+holds?

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@BedfordGreens - thought this was worth highlighting.

[Green Councillors' Climate Action @GpewAction]

Vital to success in local authority climate action is staff and councillor training. So it's wonderful that @Carbon_Literacy has FREE toolkits for all staff, for leaders and for councillors. Does YOUR council have a training plan in place? https://t.co/skRhhckrSR

@sebvandenbrink @yspeert @TerribleMaps After many hundreds of years of invasions, they could do with a change...

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@NorthBedsPolice NOW I see...

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@Green_NewDealUK Meanwhile, #Bedford is suffering the pain of electrification to make our train service WORSE, because #failingGrayling doesn't want to pay for electrification 2 get as far as Leicester, even: so electric trains will stop in Northants rather than anywhere with network connections.

My first vote was in the European election in 1989. I voted Green, and there was a Green Wave then, too. 30 years on, Greens are needed more than ever #EUelections2019 #greenwave #ClimateEmergency

@FionaRadic Not just interesting. Brilliant. Well done Fenland GP!

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@FionaRadic Not that different from Norwich...

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@martinschmierer @EastGreenParty @NorwichGreens @catherinerowett @TheGreenParty @Martinshmierer think of it as a referendum on your performance as Mayor of Norwich!

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@theblakeroberts @EastGreenParty On Wednesday she joined us in a protest against #BedfordStation losing its services to/from the north. Then had a Loooong journey back to Norwich via London. It would have been quicker to go direct Bedford-Brussels 💚

@_MikeLoftus_ @GreenRupertRead Green Party is not afraid of hard work!

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]

@jasonintrator @EastGreenParty Shame @GreenRupertRead couldn't join her. Meanwhile, like Catherine I have recently left academic philosophy - glad to be her regional agent: @EastGreenParty would struggle without philosophers!

[Bedford Rail Campaigners @RailBedford]
