Cllr Brad Baines 🌹🐝

I have passed these reports on.

The County Council have decided to only remove flyposted flags where they pose a health and safety risk. Will see what they come back with.

Thank you to the hundreds of residents who have signed @bradtbaines.bsky.social petition to make the Abingdon Road/Weirs Lane crossing safe. 1/2

Another great morning talking with residents! This time in Long Ford Close.

Will be taking up issues around ASB, drug dealing and e-scooters. South Oxford is sooo pretty in the sunshine ☀️

Fantastic to be out again talking with residents in Iffley Village about the issues which matter to them.

A great response on the doorstep. Looking forward to continuing to work alongside residents to make Iffley an even better place to live! #labourdoorstep

@oxfordlabour.bsky.social

Lots of positive conversations out this morning talking with residents in St Ebbe’s By the Water. #labourdoorstep

Fantastic to be back out talking with residents in Iffley Fields this morning with @anneliesedoddsmp.bsky.social

Great to hear about what matters to local people and how we can be ambitious for our city. #onyourside #labourdoorstep

New scheme in Oxford to protect every home and business from risk of River Thames flooding Environment Secretary Steve Reed approves purchase to allow new scheme to be built

It is fantastic news that after significant lobbying by @anneliesedoddsmp.bsky.social and Labour Councillors such as myself, OFAS now has the CPOs it needs to progress!

It’s time to get shovels in the ground to protect Oxford’s homes.

The Independent Oxford Alliance everyone 👏

Voters across Cowley, Rose Hill and Littlemore will be shocked to find that their ‘independent’ Councillors have joined up with the Conservatives at County Hall - propping them up behind closed doors.

It’s clear a vote for the IOA is a vote for the Conservative Party!

Full results of the County Council elections can be found here: mycouncil.oxfordshire.gov.uk/mgElectionEl...

Still recovering after a long couple of days.

I am overwhelmed to have been re-elected as the Oxfordshire County Councillor for the larger Isis division.

It has been an absolute privilege to represent the diverse communities of South & East Oxford over the last four years.

Greater to be out again in Iffley Village talking with voters before Thursday.

It has been a privilege to serve Iffley, Donnington and South Oxford on the County Council.

Why can’t these things come to Oxford after 1 May? Sad I missed it.

What a weekend!

Fantastic to meet so many residents across South & East Oxford.

So grateful for the support shown by residents. Together we can deliver a fairer, greener Oxfordshire! #labourdoorstep

More lovely conversations with Iffley Fields residents this evening. #labourdoorstep

What's the best way is to make Oxford's streets safer for pedestrians and cyclists?
We ask representatives of political parties standing in local elections. We'll post one video a day.

Lovely morning in South Oxford today 🤩

Absolutely shocking that despite claiming that social care is a priority the Tories and Lib Dem’s grouped up to block Oxfordshire supporting a new National Care Service

A National Care Service would put provide clear national guidelines and standards, so that no one goes without the care they need

Extension of Iffley Road bus route to Oxford station axed from improvement plans Calls for the 3/3A bus route along Iffley Road to be extended to Oxford station have been axed from Oxfordshire County Council’s plans to improve…

Fantastic to hear from residents this morning about the urgent need for the 3/3A to connect to the rail station.

The petition has now attracted 1,132 signatures. Yet, the Council still refuses to help restore this link or bring buses under public control.

Great to be back out with the team talking to residents in Donnington. #labourdoorstep

One of most common things people raise with me is the lack of a dedicate time for pedestrians to cross at the junction of Abingdon Road and Weirs Lane near Tescos.

We shouldn’t have to wait for someone to be seriously hurt for something to be done at this dangerous junction.

I have other canvassing photos you could use 😭

Well done Anna. Queen Victoria would be proud!

A pleasant evening canvassing on Iffley Road catching the last of the sun’s rays for the day ☀️

It’s been lovely meeting so many residents in Iffley Fields ahead of the election as it moves into Isis division.

Can’t get enough of the spring sun ☀️

Fantastic to meet provider Clear Channel this afternoon about installing a bench or shelter at the southbound Howard St bus stop.

It’s critical that public transport is inclusive and easy to use if we are going to tackle congestion.

Labour MP Sean Woodcock, council group leader Liz Brighouse and MP Anneliese Dodds at the launch of their manifesto

Labour has unveiled its manifesto for May’s Oxfordshire County Council elections, pledging to “put more money in your pocket” and saying “A Labour-controlled County Council working hand in hand with a Labour Government at Westminster will turbo-charge what we can do for local people.”

Warm reception out on the doorsteps this morning in New Hinksey.

Always great to talk to people about how we make our area an even better place to live!
