glad to see money allocated to road maintenance by Cambridgeshire. This is key for cyclist safety, potholes can be lethal. I have been calling for this since elected last year and continue to do so www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I spent today at Cambridgeshire County Council to present our Green budget amendment including auto-enrolment for schoolmeals to help tackle child poverty and Polluter Pays parking reform to raise funds for potholes. Unfortunately, voted down by the other parties. But we are not deterred !
“Ecosystem degradation is occurring across all regions. Every critical ecosystem is on a pathway to collapse.” This is a threat to “UK national security and prosperity”. Terrible evidence in report which UK Goverment intentionally tried to hide

With @darren-green.bsky.social , today at Environment & Green Investment committee of Cambridgeshire County Council to debate and pass the new Climate Change Strategy. I am delighted to work with officers on this and it means climate data will be prioritised earlier in council decision-making

I chat with many Cambridge residents - fixing the roads and cyclepaths often comes up as a key concern. I was so delighted when our efforts to get Barton Road, a major artery into Cambridge, got fixed - despite previously being told it was impossible and there was no budget! Cheers.
Our County councillors have been reflecting on the last 8 months.
Greens in the room are holding Lib Dems and even Reform to account and making life better for residents across Cambridgeshire.

More Cambridge potholes filled! so many cyclists use the Driftway which is also poorly lit—really glad this dangerous set of potholes have been fixed. With fellow green councillors Jean Glasberg and Hugh Clough
