Really, Reform UK? THIS is what you're going with? That this man, who served as an MEP next to Nigel Farage for years and was made leader of your party in Wales by current deputy, Richard Tice, is just "one of tens of thousands of people Nigel meets on an annual basis"?~AA

I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore.

So I wrote a blog about ten things you can do *right now* to help defeat Farage, Musk, and rightwing populism.

From scrutinising Reform councillors to demanding the UK Govt leave X - get involved:

It's International Day of Play. Play is critical for child development. But, why do we signal play is no longer important once you turn 15yo?
My recent research (in Cities & Health) found that 16-25yo access #urbangreenspace less than other age cohorts b/c they feel they've aged out of playing.

We know how to save lives and make our city safer for everyone, especially children, older and disabled people, to walk, cycle and catch the bus.

Rolling out 20mph speed limits everywhere people are using pavements and need to cross the road makes sense.
New research provides conclusive proof that 20mph in London is saving lives.

14 yrs of analysis at 150+ sites - reviewed by experts - shows:

❤️40% fewer deaths (vs 7% drop on roads where no changes were made)
❤️75% fewer children killed & 50% fewer kids hurt

And slower speeds deliver so much more:

The turnout in small towns across the country has been incredible drawing crowds of thousands. We’re already seeing over one million in attendance nationwide, and events are still underway. Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Ohio all had especially surprising showings.

Success!

The Police realised that the tree protectors were not backing down & it wouldn’t be a good look to arrest children & pensioners for sitting peacefully under a tree, so they have called off the felling today, & indeed the rest of the week!

Yet again, #DowningSt shows itself to be trapped in a misinformation and disinformation bubble when it comes to nature laws.

Meanwhile, the PM seems to have very little to say about housebuilders that are sitting on 100ks of granted planning permissions, but not actually building houses!
Sir Keir has misrepresented the impact of conservation on housing in Ebbsfleet. The majority of the homes are going ahead. The distinguished jumping spider isn’t even in the development area, but it is a precious habitat. Let's move beyond nature vs. growth - sustainable development benefits us all.
