@northernassist Thank you

[JR @jpmroberts]

@northernassist The fly tipping and litter at Saltaire station is a disgrace and has been left for years, spoiling views of the world heritage site. Can this *please* be cleaned up as part of the platform extension works this year? #Saltaire @Bradford_TandA @ShipleyTC @salt

[JR @jpmroberts]

@northernassist The image I sent yesterday is of the station and embankment above it. The issue carries on along the embankment along Albert Terrace. The image I sent previously was off the embankment itself (which still hasn't been cleared)

[JR @jpmroberts]

@northernassist @Bradford_TandA @ShipleyTC @Salt A year later, the fly tipping and litter still hasn't been cleared, but now looks even worse following the trees being cut down 😢 @RailwayNorthern can this *please* be escalated? This is the 25th anniversary of Saltaire's World Heritage listing and the station is a disgrace

@QburyTunnel @NationalHways Deeply disappointing and very short sighted

A few updates to the site and a bit more content. https://t.co/UZWX8HopuB #travel #scotland #arran

[JR @jpmroberts]

Lots to tweak, but I finally managed build a website 🎊🎉 Please have a look if you might be interested in an Arran holiday. The house is lovely, well equipped and has loads of space. Sleeps 6, family friendly and perfect for remote work. https://t.co/UZWX8HoXk9 #Travel #Scotland

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

The reaction to today's ambush of President Zelensky by Trump and Vance is a good litmus test for which accounts on here are utterly irredeemable / in thrall to Putin. It's good to see a number of right wing voices call this horrific display out. When the story of the demise of the MAGA cult is told, today will play a significant role.

@WeAreZizzi is the split in this board ok...? #york

[JR @jpmroberts]

@annalouisedixon I understand that ending sewage dump in the Aire is one of your top priorities as an MP and I hope you succeed in your campaign. The river was disgusting today and I have reported it to @YorkshireWater online

[JR @jpmroberts]

I've just run between Saltaire & Dowley Gap. The river smells overpoweringly of raw sewage. It's high at the moment, but this is a regular problem and disgusting, particularly for a stretch of river used for rowing and next to the World Heritage Site 🤢 @YorkshireWater @EnvAgency

One of these people won 3 consecutive Mayoral elections and was knighted
The other 3 have jobs for life in the House of Lords - can anyone tell me what they achieved

That is what is wrong with the Honours system

[JR @jpmroberts]

Finally ready! Huge thanks to everyone in the island who has worked on the house- it's looking great! https://t.co/2513w33FdA #arran

The £18.6 billion Elizabeth Line has won 2024's RIBA Stirling Prize. Us Northerners couldn't be happier. This morning, a 35-min journey from north to south Manchester took 1 hr and 40 minutes thanks to a woeful lack of investment in Northern transport infrastructure.

This wonderful mural - depicting a lost Bradford scene - has a new home @SaltsMill @BradfordCivic 😊 https://t.co/WXINaP5EQi

@ForestryLS Thank you!

[JR @jpmroberts]

@ForestryLS the fort at Glenashdale on the Isle of Arran would historically have had views of the waterfalls now blocked by mature conifers. What is the process for ensuring that this is restored when the trees are harvested? #arran
