@green5347 I know about this one - the figures for green walls are not bad but over-egged. Main problem is the green roofs they want to install which aren't good at all. I have told City about this - it has received planning permission. The green wall system is same one...

@EnableParks @MikeL0302 @TootingCommon @wandbc @idverdeUK @EnableUK Has hedge laying been considered?

[Ldn Beekeepers Assoc @LondonBeeKeeper]

A few years ago a large group of our members organised by our forage Officer planted thousands of spring bulbs in Arch Bishops Park @lambeth_council. Today they looked magnificent in the afternoon sun and were buzzing with bees.

TCMAC is objecting on those grounds. @TootingCommon ?

@wandbc planning applications 2018/6155 & /6193 for telecom masts on #tootingcommons claim ‘trees, conservation areas etc.’ … ‘not relevant’. Oh really? @TootingCommMAC Character Statement specifically identifies degradation of priceless natural environment by intrusion of tech

Extraordinary then and now picture from today’s ⁦@TimeOutLondon⁩ of the view across Greenwich to Docklands. The change in just 30 years is amazing.

But traffic engineers do have a pretty good idea. It's the brief that fails through want of vision

[Tooting Commons MAC @TootingCommMAC]

Neither did the world end when Bedford hill was closed during work on the bridge at station road. And the world didn't end when Putney bridge was closed. If temporary closures can be made to work, how much more so a truly radical scheme?

Quite simply, this not cricket

[Edward Cooper @edwardbcooper69]

@TheCricketerMag Cricket fans are going to hate it, it devalues the game and promotes gread. @ECB_cricket have already marginalised @CountyChamp and in 2020 will crash the @RLODCup . It will break county players loyalties @PCA as the players chase the money. Scrap The Hundred now.

@Simon_Hemsley @steffisutters @TootingCommon @EnableParks @wandbc I had a Polish friend who spent a few years in the Siberian Gulags helping Mr. Stalin build a railway. He met people there being educated about the consequences of dropping cigarette butts on the streets of Moscow. Just saying …

[Tooting Commons MAC @TootingCommMAC]

What are the odds on this starting with a cigarette thoughtlessly discarded? @TootingCommon @EnableParks @wandbc @TootingCommMAC

We've issued an urgent safety warning following the largest grass fire in our history on #WansteadFlats yesterday and a series of other serious fires on grassland. @LFBCommissioner says she is "praying for rain." https://t.co/QPMggyu7SU #London
