Whilst I welcome the £200 Winter Fuel Allowance @neilduncanjordan.bsky.social it's still going to be a juggling act to make ends meet with the cost of living far out weighing any comfort the #WFA is meant to bring. I'm 73 and it's going to be the bleakest Winter / Christmas in my own living memory.

Here's yet another thing my #Creekmoor Councillors probably won't share on Social Media with their local #community .... unless of course it's with a lazy bones RT of this post as is the usual case on other platforms I post on.

I'll post it because my #BCP #Creekmoor elected Councillors haven't / wont ....

Good to see Independent #Labour MP for #Poole @neilduncanjordan.bsky.social taking the #SEND crisis seriously.
"The Government must deliver SEND reform – the current system isn’t working for families or children in Poole.
I’ve written to request interim support following the delayed White Paper."

I feel sure that #BCP Council #Standards Committee will be keen to ask #Creekmoor Councillor Judes Butt why she feels that it's okay for her to breach the Seven Principles of Public Life (1.7 in this case) at every/any opportunity she can think of on her FB profile page. 🤔

Jeremy Clarkson has had to to kill his first calf after a TB outbreak, despite bragging he’d already “shot all the badgers.”
It seems that the real problem isn’t #Badgers.
It’s a broken testing system.

Just posted a 🐝 #Bee🐝 themed Birthday card so this lovely decorated Post Box in #Creekmoor #Poole was the ideal send off for it!

Due to exhaustion & feeling far too lazy to cook after watching the @redrosesrugby.bsky.social yesterday I will be supporting a local business, the Acorn #Creekmoor before getting settling down & roaring on the #RyderCup2025 🇪🇺 team to victory.

1 of 2 ...
My thoughts on #Poole #Labour MP Neil Dunan-Jordan's statement.
#1 Good to see a reasoned response from him.
#2 A referendum would have to be properly conducted with balanced debates beforehand .... remember #Brexit

Drown out all the noise about Town & Parish Councils for a few hours this weekend with some #familyfun, 'Banging' Burgers & #Music at the Acorn #Pub in #Creekmoor #Poole.

RIP Dickie a true legend of the #Cricket world whose long innings touched players and supporters everywhere.
1933-2025 🙏

What a great victory for the 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 #RedRoses but it'll take me until the final next week to calm my nerves to anything near normal. Until then👏👏👏
September 20, 2025 at 6:07 PM
This is such a great initiative that we need more of so I hope that our local #MP's and #Councillors get fully onboard and actually hold and "promote" events like this in their own wards and constituencies.
🤞As always I live in hope. 🤞

Posted on the FB Poole Community Group.
Some idiot(s) buried their used disposable #BBQ in the sand & this little kid paid the price for it. Yet another reason to sign local #MDNP LibDem MP @vikkislademp.bsky.social petition to ban the sale of them.

The rare Puya Alpestris is flowering for the first time since 2019.
Native to the Andes, this stunning plant with turquoise blue flowers and orange stamens is a true marvel. We think #Upton Country Park may be the only place in the UK where you can see it blooming outdoors.

Coming to The #Acorn Pub #Creekmoor in #Poole soon and just for clarification the Pizzas haven't already been sold out but are being served from 5pm until they are all sold out so no specific time can be stated so get there early so that you don't miss out!
