Ecologically illiterate piece in the Times today, virtually a puff piece for developers listing all their gripes

“Nobody bothered much about bats and newts in the past”

Moans about having to survey “interesting weeds” before building

Give me strength

@hulltourguide I was feeling the love today

Quite an experience having BBC with us yesterday for autumn statement. Let’s say we had a range of ideas and views on answers to the mess we are in but I think “is the definition of insanity doing the same thing and expecting different results?”

[Tim Iredale @iredalepolitics]

Ready for the #AutumnStatement here at ⁦@TimeBank_HER⁩ at Marfleet in #Hull where we are reporting for #PoliticsLive on ⁦@BBCTwo⁩ and ⁦@looknorthBBC⁩

@Connexin please call me. We have had no internet and phones for our business for a week. This is unacceptable. Call us and tell us how you sorting this

[Kate Macdonald @KateMMacdonald]

@Connexin we have been without phones and internet for over a week for our business. We have had to shut our centre. Still you do not call us back to tell us how you will fix this. Terrible service

There's no #optionality if money is the only way to meet needs, exchange, give, or receive value.

Spending time with HUMANS mutual aid networks team talking about time banking, common funds, gifting, MCC, feasts, sharing, SO MANY ways to live literally collapsing into money.

Our communities need #ClimateChange to matter in EVERY decision. @michaelgove accept amendments 283 & 191 to #LevellingUp Bill #WeAreHereHull @SueHayman1

[Rights : Community : Action @RightsClimate]

From Thursday 31st Aug until Sunday 3rd Sept, #ShorelinesAPerfectStorm will be taking over our social media accounts, live from the @FreedomFestHull! Follow along, whether you can make it to #Hull or not #CommunityVoice #ClimateCrisis

[Rights : Community : Action @RightsClimate]

It's not too late - they can and must accept the climate amendments 283 and 191. Do you want to take action? Have a look here for ideas 👉 https://t.co/FBJrUiVCO6

Next week, The Lords will debate amendments to the #LevellingUp Bill that could give communities the powers they need to adapt and mitigate #climatechange. The Government has resisted previous attempts to make climate change matter in this bill.

Our exhibition is open at 18 Whitefriargate in Hull at part of the @FreedomFestHull Come and see all of the wonderful artwork our communities have made and share your views on our climate change podcast.

[Rights : Community : Action @RightsClimate]

We had a visit from The Wild Ones this afternoon. We have been working with them through the summer to design a mural and learn all about the local impact of climate change. Our podcast is now being recorded in our Whitefriargate gallery. Come share your views with us!

@TheCarlWheatley Not having local reporters representing local people would avoid people like Liz Truss actually being challenged on cruel policies. That feels like an agenda

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

1. I've long wondered how nations slide into authoritarianism. Why do people accept the loss of their freedoms? Why do they not rise up together against oppression? Now that it's happening in the UK, I think I have an answer. Thread/

@BBCr4today @seanfarrington Our much loved presenters which we have a relationship with have all been let go. It obscene. They are the ones we local people have a relationship with, not the station.
