To the 22 followers, I have, could you please share this e-petition? https://t.co/KcqLT6p7uN We're trying to get Southend Council to ban Glyphosate, an evil herbicide, we want to save the bees and really who doesn't love a bee?
@tonycoxreform You're wrong, I care, and I think at the very least it's xenophobic - some immigrants come from countries in Asia, Africa, etc., stricter rules that throw out or make it harder to work will disproportionately impact people from minority and global majority backgrounds.
@tonycoxreform@reformparty_uk Does that mean you will be too! If you can’t hear everyone, you can’t represent everyone. Keep in-person translators. £150,000 is 0.1% of Southend's £150 million budget. You really are a performative muppet
@tonycoxreform A 1.1% response rate doesn’t reflect the will of the people — just the will of the loudest few. According to the last census, Southend's population was 180k (2021)
@tonycoxreform Yeah - your original comment didn't make that clear, nor does your blurb in the article - but even so - Google Translate can't handle a full-on 'legal' conversation. Of all the things to get 'hard' on, is this your hill?
@tonycoxreform@Essex_CC@thurrockcouncil I'd suggest that confidence in elected representatives couldn't be lower, regardless of the flavour; elections are going to be delayed so that reforms can be introduced. You just want them now, because you believe your party has momentum - "smells like political opportunism"
@JimmyTheGreat44@CllrDent You said murder, my gran; the ADB was a logical assumption as to what you were referring to. You're entitled to your opinion; I wish you the best of luck.
@UTCShoebury "Wow, a screenshot of some survey from somewhere—probably relevant back when Blockbuster was still a thing. Meanwhile, online shopping has obliterated that reality, but sure, let's cling to those ancient facts. 🙄📦"
@cllrtonycox Get to fuck: Bedroom tax, two-child limit, withdrawal of EMA; the disability element of ESA. Cutting the NHS and reducing the grants for local authorities. Fucking hypocrite.
