So something incredible happened today!
Myself, @EmilyFedorowycz and @tubbssarah got elected as the first ever @TheGreenParty councillors in Northamptonshire! 💚

Thank you so much much to everyone that voted for us! 😍

Thanks so much for your excellent reporting at the NT over the years 👏👏

When we build bigger roads, we get more traffic. Congestion briefly gets better, then the same, then worse. £Billions is spent in the process.

Instead of dualling roads, what if we used the space for active travel instead? Here’s a thread on why it should happen.🧵

[WeGotTickets @WeGotTickets]

Wellingborough Walks Action Group did it! Took the council and a massive developer to court - and won. It's been quite the story to follow from early protests to @paulpowlesland being arrested to the High Court. Off to Wellingborough for the next chapter

@JustPlaneNews @weekleyhallwood @NTelegraph @paddersboy @wildlifebcn Ooh also, at the start of the campaign I found @ginamartinuk’s ‘Be The Change’ book hugely influential (and inspirational).
We often referred back to the great practical advice in there, the press release guidance and media tips for radio/TV were so, so handy 👏

[Cllr Dez Dell @dezzahd]

@JustPlaneNews @weekleyhallwood @NTelegraph @paddersboy @wildlifebcn Regarding cllrs, 3x Greens were elected in 2021 by the people nearest to the area (the first Green Party Cllrs in Northants). The ruling Tories see the campaign as political so haven’t engaged. Better to keep politics out of it or get cross party support tbh!

[Cllr Dez Dell @dezzahd]

@JustPlaneNews @weekleyhallwood @NTelegraph @paddersboy @wildlifebcn There’s a potted history on our website, but it’s been hard work. Helped by amazing support from the community & local press, huge amounts of social media to engage locals (mainly Facebook), keeping the campaign positive and sticking with it for 4 years. https://t.co/OkD8yRGTzv

[Cllr Dez Dell @dezzahd]

@weekleyhallwood @SamWildmanNT @AlisonBagley1 @NTelegraph Alright, alright! I've got to add 2x @NTelegraph articles, the @NNjournalism report, @BBCNorthampton (online and radio interviews) plus @BBCLookEast and @itvanglia, so bear with me! 😅

TV reports are on our Youtube channel already though - https://t.co/jfvjm3hx6u
