When all the sites are added up, how many acres of green spaces, play areas + amenities stand to be lost in Southwark? Across London?
So-called 'Infill' = jargon for loss of play areas, growing spaces, ball courts, vital for health #YouDontBuildOnParks #YouDontBuildOnPlayAreas

[Infilling Harms Estates @CourtCampaign]

Yesterday, Elim said "no" to losing their ball court. @BallcourtGarden. #Youdontbuildonballcourts. #Youdontbuildonparks. You don't make estates poorer to 'solve' the housing crisis. #infillscandal. @StephenNolan @se1 @Channel4News

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.
https://t.co/qMmYN6l1dt

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