@Kromaatikse hi, Jonathan, I’m your cousin. Not on here often, but you can easily find me online if you’d like to get in touch. I last saw you when you were 2!

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

I will be tweeting from #Wokingham Borough full council from #Bluesky tonight under the handle bishopfirth.

Very sad at the death of my brilliant council colleague Paul Fishwick. He will be greatly missed

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

@virginmedia Thank you for this. I'm concerned as a councillor that I have no visibility of progress and no way of keeping in touch other than by Twitter. This is very unusual. Can I ask why it's not possible for me to have an email address or reference number?

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

Hi @VirginMediaCorp how can I escalate a report of a broken inspection cover to you please? Residents tell me they’ve reported several times but it’s not yet mended. Thanks!

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

@virginmedia Good evening - following on from our conversation back in Sept - the residents have seen no action from this. Can you please let me know what has been done? And how can I best keep in touch - twitter doesn't seem the best way of handling this.

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

Each resident has taken us through the six ambitions that we have to improve the lives of people in #Wokingham

@virginmedia This is the item which needs mending. The council have confirmed that it belongs to Virgin. What : words are mats.jumped.fixed

The Local Plan has passed #Wokingham Borough Council. This is a significant step towards protecting the Borough from uncontrolled and unplanned development.

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

Thankfully it’s been voted down

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

Cross party speeches on why we can’t accept an unrealistic Conservative wrecking amendment to the #Wokingham Local Plan, sprung on us at the last minute. Experienced councillors point out this is ‘ludicrous’ and ‘ridiculous’ & shows a major failure to understand planning process

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

This is not constructive, grown up politics for the benefit of residents

[Rachel Bishop-Firth @rachelbf3]

#Wokingham Full Council is considering the Local Plan tonight. This is an incredibly serious issue - if it doesn’t pass tonight the Borough will be open to uncontrolled speculative development. Very disappointed the opposition have produced a wrecking amendment with no notice
