We've planted 2 #RainGardens#SuDS, covering 23m² & with over 170 plants, in partnership with @CamdenCouncil🌼🐝
These gardens are more than just beautiful spaces:
💧 significantly reducing rainfall runoff,
🌿 green spaces for biodiversity,
🌼 a win-win solution for our community.
While it will take a few months for the plants to fully establish, we can't wait to see the burst of colour and life they'll bring when spring arrives.
Our selection of plants includes a vibrant mix of colours and types, ensuring a diverse and #resilient garden!

It's been an utterly abominable 24 hours for Brexit news:
- The UK gave up on negotiations to extend our trade deal with Canada, leaving us worse off than when we were an EU member
https://t.co/EkwL7Ux6TG
- New incoming border checks will add £200 million a year to the cost of our food and drink.
https://t.co/gxYDOLZdeE
- MPs were warned that the EU's upcoming ETIAS/EES border systems may lead to 14-hour queues to enter (the rest of) Europe from the autumn.
https://t.co/L0rpDZLNTZ
- There were warnings of possible shortages of flowers for Valentines Day because of the new incoming border checks.
https://t.co/G7ao5PRwOS
- A plan to extend visas for British expats in France from 90 to 180 days was blocked by France's Constitutional Council court (a decision which has no right of appeal).
https://t.co/tTIfgcgYFd
- Rishi Sunak's pledge to ensure no future laws can create a border down the Irish Sea has gone down like a bucket of sick in TUV quarters. (And has sent the blood pressure of the usual suspect Brexiters sky-high.)
https://t.co/odwcopbjcJ
- The EU's plans to increase bulk medicine procurement across the bloc risk creating shortages in Britain because they have very significantly greater buying power than the UK does.

Phew! That's a truly catastrophic batch of headlines for just one day...
