#HappyNewYear2021 #HAPPYNEWYEAR
It's here! After such a difficult year despite which so many positive things emerged, including our Residents' Association and the Community Assemblies we all held which taught us all so much.
Looking forward to keeping these going in 2021!

Our greenbelt and natural environment is so important - and beautiful!

So happy this year our residents' association formed
We've been loving and learning from the community assemblies - thank you all.
Hope you're having a #MerryChristmas as much as possible, looking forward to next year when there will be much to do and listen to each other about

You're being asked for your views - Conservatives say this is democracy in action; other councillors see it as a ploy to hold onto status quo for another year https://t.co/AVpeokWwCt

..the correct info with the people assembled so they can make informed decisions.

Citizens'Forums will not do this

1/3 Citizens'Assemblies are what broke Irish deadlock on abortion

As a Residents'Association that uses a more informal version of the assembly process to manage our affairs, we're very disappointed @SpelthorneBC voted down this opportunity to allowCitizens to decide..
@LDRSurrey

[Spelthorne Council @SpelthorneBC]

The Council have voted on an amended motion relating to the Climate Emergency which will involve the establishment of resident fora.

......how we cope with this crisis.

As Einstein said, you don't solve a problem with the same thinking that created it.

Let the people decide

Few people know the extent of the climate crisis, a Citizens' Assembly would share....

"..a step in the right direction, but the council need to support all residents to move towards carbon neutrality. Helping residents become 'just that little bit greener' (as stated in the council's press release) is not enough."
