The Bay Tree Bakery stopped some time ago. I have been using this as a personal feed since. Am going to ease back on this account to focus on the newly created @JustTransitionW - climate & Wakefield tweets from Just Transition Wakefield. Do please follow!
We’ve been working hard this weekend on the 4 legal cases we’re bringing against the government with @GoodLawProject about dodgy PPE procurement
Over 640 of our friends and colleagues have died of COVID-19, many had insufficient or no PPE 😷

@fneepette @EveryCountry You need to find a local group that finds land for allotment plots - like our Incredible Edible Wakefield. Community growing is definitely part of the answer.
Boris Johnson said in 2016 that Bexit would mean £600m a week in alleviation of business burden. (video)
Well, the food & drink sector have just announced that Brexit red tape will burden them with an extra £6bn a year. (link in next tweet)
9 days into Brexit and it's clear that the UK as an exporter of goods is being throttled to death.
By its own Government.
The exact opposite of the "fantastic global trading opportunity" we were promised Brexit would create.
