So excited that Bristol's Green City Leader, Tony Dyer is meeting with NY's Mayor Mamdani and 48 mayors from the around the world. One agenda item is city owned grocery stores which could provide access to affordable decent food to combat food poverty. So good to see progressives sharing ideas.

Very very disappointed that this scheme has been spiked by Bristol Labour's nonsense. Evidence led policy is essential to reducing and eliminating the gridlock that plagues the city and those of us on the fringes would like reliable bus services that aren't stuck in traffic in town

Been in Birmingham today, meeting with other Green councillors to look at policy development for new Green administrations, sharing ideas from Greens already running councils. A pang of jealousy over Birmingham’s new trams, but they did cheer me up after Thursday.

Tonight Labour voted with the Tories to block plans to deliver cleaner air, faster buses, safer cycling and nicer walking, and enabled future mass transit. It was the old Labour administration's idea in the first place! They care more about petty political pointscoring than what's good for Bristol.

Bristol labour sunk to new depths tonight. Voting against or abstaining on three sustainable transport projects, that would improve air quality, improve bus times, a safe route for children to get to school, and even improve traffic. An absolute disgrace.

Mandelson’s malign influence runs right through the heart of this Government. Not least in the govt’s NHS data deal with Palantir – a spy-tech firm co-founded by a man who thinks the NHS should be ‘ripped up.’ I've written to Wes Streeting urging him to ditch this dangerous deal.

Nice to see that the progression artwork at Ashley Down station, designed by the Lockley’s neighbourhood trust, and members of the first Muslim Scout group, has Ben been replaced after it was vandalised. We’ve been working with officers to get this done as quickly as possible.

Exactly my point; this doesn’t seem like a good measure of ‘value for money’ when attending committee meetings (and not even all the other work/prep for the committee), is the only thing being measured.

Emma Edwards @cllremmaedwards.bsky.social · 14/12/2025

Surely this would only make sense if all Councillors did was go to committee meetings? Doesn’t take into account things like Ward size/population, complexity of Ward issues in different wards, and the workload of other roles held.
