I met Helen in 2019; I've supported her family for many years - with food parcels, employer disputes, discrimination in school. I was thrilled when she invited me to attend her citizenship ceremony. As a councillor you advocate for people in hard times & celebrate the better times. Congrats Helen!🎉

On the picket line w Forest Fields Primary staff, listening to concerns about working conditions & understaffing. Their dedication to the kids is unquestionable, but we can't ask teachers to do more with less. Every teacher & every child deserve a safe, happy classroom #Solidarity #SaveEducation

I've been on a mission to sprinkle some green joy around Forest Fields. Two new flowerbeds on Harcourt Rd & 30 hanging baskets on 12 other streets. Everyone deserves beauty on their doorstep, especially in the inner city. More flowers, less concrete! Big thanks to the council's Green Spaces team🌻

This is a historic moment: the first time the rights of Nature have entered the UK parliamentary process. The Bill recognises Nature as a legal subject, reorders the hierarchy of rights, creates a duty of care towards Nature and embeds Nature’s rights into UK decision-making across all sectors.

For years I've supported people from careworkers to Afghan refugees to university lecturers to apply for asylum & helped secure Indefinite Leave to Remain. Since Labour's cruel new immigration reforms, my residents are more fearful than ever. Migrants are our friends & neighbours, not strangers 🫂🌍

Eliza's story is in Notts Live today. Her essential personal care has been cut as a result of Labour cllrs voting for a 'review' of high needs care packages. This is the human impact of cuts to public services. Disabled residents & unpaid carers deserve better & I'll keep amplifying their voices.

@nottsgreenparty.bsky.social welcomed 177 new members this week alone. Each one brings hope and commitment to a fairer, greener city! In the same week, Sherwood welcomed all with signs of kindness, where flags were before @councillorq.bsky.social @greenparty.org.uk www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Signs of kindness put up along Nottingham road in place of flags
It is not clear who put up the signs, which have appeared on lamp-posts along a road in Nottingham.

Before I was a cllr I worked for several women's shelters. Now, I often handle domestic violence cases & I couldn't do it without my caseworker, Tamia. She always goes the extra mile behind the scenes. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month & I want to thank her for the hidden work she does 🤍

As another heatwave hits the UK, the UK Green Building Council have said the UK’s schools, care homes and offices are not equipped for the effects of global heating. We need a maximum working temperature and urgent adaptation to protect people from the effects of extreme heat.

Israel — on trial for genocide at the ICJ, with leaders under ICC arrest warrants — bans journalists from Gaza to hide its genocide with lies & hasbara. The evidence of war crimes is overwhelming — yet the UK government still refuses to implement a full arms embargo & sanctions.

You know this is the point - it's the lazy city. You need food, you pop to the shop, you want to go to the pub, you just go. You walk to work. No need to think about if your car is fueled, about traffic, parking., anything.
