In a 🌍, an industry, where representation matters, today your girl will make history as the first woman of colour to EVER have her play on the main stage of @the_globe AND be in it!

Why is this important?

Because one of the last people to do this, was...Mr William Shakespeare

This brown Essex girl finds herself in a position up where she is up against Will Shakespeare on the main stage of @The_Globe -and she intends to beat his ass!

Any chance of a share for our 🥰 show?

@BuckCllr Thanks, I've now DM'd you.

[James Ravinet @JamesRavinet]

Hi @BuckCllr - I sent an email to yourself and fellow Prittlewell ward councillors on 28th June regarding a concern as a local resident. Could you possibly respond or acknowledge the email please? Thanks.

Tickets are selling fast for our walks later this month, which are inspired by the ground-breaking legislation of the #EppingForest Act 1878 and the events that led up to it. Details of how to book can be found in this thread 👇

@DavidBSampson @CllrCowan @EssexPoliceUK Thank you for clarifying/replying. Concern really emerged from speaking to the business owner who indicated that police expressed they didn't have the resources - but I trust/hope this has been rethought given the escalation. Thanks.

[James Ravinet @JamesRavinet]

There is a business in #Southend being targeted by the far right this week. @DavidBSampson @CllrCowan is there any indication that @EssexPoliceUK will attend? I spoke to those that reported it, who were told by police that they don't have enough resources to send officers.
