Israel's award-winning journalist Amira Hass breaks down as she tries to put into words the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, Israel's plan for even greater slaughter, and the world's indifference

[James Abbott @JamesAbbott2013]

From the aggressive tone on #planning from senior Labour figures, including Starmer, it appears that Labour intend to out-Tory the Tories in dismantling the planning system. Ignoring local communities and their elected representatives would be an assault on democracy.

The closure of Bristol's public toilets, & the subsequent poor take up of the 'Community Toilet Scheme' disproportionately affects women, & especially disabled women.

It’s so strange to see Richard Eddy still chair of his planning committee after he and the mayor’s assistant appeared to collude with developers to get a planning decision through, subverting the process.

@AudreySuzanne we need a debate.

[WHaMplanning @WHaMplanning]

@TristanCorkPost Eddy has total contempt for anyone who opposes him, yet he is Chair of a planning committee. Therefore, how can anyone speaking at a planning meeting have confidence that their views will be respected?

If you don’t want to see Bristol lose it’s last working farm and a site of nature conservation interest you can still submit objections on the planning portal➡️ https://t.co/x187J41341

Well done to the brilliant campaigners fighting for a decent, fair and objective decision on Broadwalk after being stitched up. Really shocking to hear @MarvinJRees praising the chair of the committee. Fed up of @BristolLabour siding with the Tories. #justiceforknowle

Is the Mayor concerned that a senior member of his office (Kevin Slocombe) was in extensive conversation with Savills planning consultants & the Chair of DCA.. after DCA had resolved to refuse the scheme.

More incredible evidence of the strength of the Knowle and Totterdown local community inside and outside City Hall this afternoon. Standing up for a proper review of the Broadwalk planning scandal

[Mark Starbuck @MarkStarbu29985]

@nicolawriting @DanicaPriest @Catherinewith11 An utter disgrace. A council who shouts about clean air but are happy to destroy the City’s last remaining farm so they can bury dead people….it’s obscene that we’re even having this discussion. Why would you destroy a living, breathing environment to bury dead things?

Our local councillor has been blocked by the mayor. Was this triggered by asking @MarvinJRees @BristolCouncil about the current substandard walking/cycling route by the derelict Grosvenor Hotel
