1,000+ signatures. One way in. One way out. Enough is enough. I’ve presented the Queen’s Hills petition with Cllr Justin Cork to Norfolk County Council. We’re not prescribing the answer. There needs to be full public consultation. But there must be a solution.

The Tories will scrap solar panels on new build homes. That means more solar will need to be built elsewhere, including on farmland. Labour’s Future Homes Plan puts panels on roofs first, helping protect farmland for food production. bylinetimes.com/2026/10/05/c... @bylinetimes.bsky.social

A photo of a new build home with solar panels on the roof being torn down. Text reads: Conservative Party plan to scrap solar panels on new homes. Less green energy, higher bills. More solar on land. A step back for Britain.

According to #Reform I’m now the problem for meeting mates at a local football match and chatting to the club about how I might help support improvements to its facilities. According to Cllr Karl Catchpole, apparently that’s worse than losing 2-1. ⚽️ www.facebook.com/share/p/17hd...

The caption on the post reads: Went to support my football team yesterday and “Hate not Hope” was there aka Ben Goldsborough. I don’t know which was worse, losing 2-1 to Gloucester City or him being present? He was supposedly there with a view of generating some funds for a new purpose built clubhouse…..Will he deliver? I doubt it. Labour only delivers decline in society. 💪🏼⚽️💙🖤🙏🏼🩵🇬🇧👍🏼
