@no_expressway @RachelReevesMP @darrenpjones @LordPeterHendy @NA The logic behind this flawed design is looking very weak. It could well be a disaster for the new government.

@RachelReevesMP @darrenpjones @LordPeterHendy there are better ways to achieve growth with £8bn than #EastWestRail whose primary driver is most profitable area in the country for housebuilding. 2021 cost is £6.6bn for a non-electric line - @NA Oorguk ignored £1bn inflation

@Shelter @RefugeeAction @refugeecouncil @crisis_uk @HomelessLink It's simply appalling that this subject is so easily ignored. A home is not a luxury. Good, secure and genuinely affordable housing is a right. Politicians who do not address this should be ashamed.

@pippaheylings These folk who say they support Pippa Heylings have clearly not experienced the zero reply policy the Lib Dems have to straightforward and reasonable questions about their support for the destructive southern approach of East West Rail.
Please ask her for me.

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@pippaheylings @YouTube I have asked LibDems locally on numerous occasions to answer the question 'Do you or do you not support the southern approach for the proposed rail link. No answer has been forthcoming. A simple yes or no please!!!!!

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@pippaheylings @YouTube Politicians love turning issues into political footballs. Having done so they should not then avoid answering straightforward questions with equally straightforward answers.

@CambApproaches In spite of numerous very reasonable requests to make their views clear, Lib Dem candidate appears to be unable to make a clear statement. Flip flop, flip flop all fall off the fence.

@CarolineLucas No government has taken public transport seriously. The vast majority of MPs and government officials are blind to the transport needs of ordinary people.

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@CambApproaches The DfT are obsessed by their desire to link Oxford and Cambridge with up to 6 trains per hour.
The reality is that they want to build massive housing estates and vast industrial estates and high tech business parks on green fields between the two cities.

I've had enough of adversarial politics. It's wrecking Britain.
Proportional Representation must be better.

@We_OwnIt @TracyBrabin Stagecoach Cambridge are cutting again. Apparently 'we have a responsibility to match our service levels to the level of demand'. Carte blanc to cut where they don't make profit. To hell with the customers.

@We_OwnIt @TracyBrabin Brilliant news. deregulation turned an essential public service into a profit driven, treat passengers like sacks of potatoes, business.

@AWCook0558 @HuwMerriman @eastwestrail That's cos there won't be any.

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@HuwMerriman @eastwestrail It's some time since Ipswich County Council put forward a suggestion that reinstating an east west rail route would help improve travel to and from Suffolk. The DfT hijacked the project with their own development company East West Rail Co. It's nothing to do with local transport.

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@HuwMerriman @eastwestrail 'Huge Regeneration opportunities'.............
What you really mean is 'Huge Profit Potential for the Tory Party donors.

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@Shelter @michaelgove @AngelaRayner @HelenMorganMP It's beginning to look like the modern day equivalent of slum housing.
Proper council houses provide permanent homes for low income families and other struggling citizens. It's a disgrace to see families with children in temporary accommodation. We must do better.

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

@CambApproaches @RosieP4 Another fantasy from one of HM Gov's department of silly ideas. Will someone give this government a new rudder for their sinking boat.

.@Dove, we’re watching you. We know your profits are drenched in plastic pollution that is harming women and girls everywhere. When will you become a real force for good and stop selling throwaway plastic sachets? #KeepHerConfident #LetsChangeDove

[Steve Edmondson @SteveEdmondso17]

I’ve asked the #GE2024 candidates who want to be my next MP to back the Climate & Ecology Bill. It’s our best hope of tackling the climate-nature crisis and building a more prosperous future for all. Will you join me? #CEBill @cebill_now https://t.co/T8MH25pGvs
