So impressed by Cllr Emma Oldham persuading Newark & Sherwood council to adopt her swift bricks policy yesterday.

Knocked back in Westminster, but it's still got wings locally. πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸͺΆ

Reform council leader in North Northamptonshire β€˜distances’ himself from β€˜Doge’ 'It is like he's trying to distance himself from it, calling it an Efficiency Review instead of calling it what it is, β€˜Doge’.'

Reform Councillor and Cabinet Member for the Environment says that climate change is a "hoax" and causes a spat.

Another Reform cllr quit after six days.

Four more don't turn up for work, as their leader dithers over simple questions.

They've really hit the ground "umming"

Olive Welch - Green candidate for Worksop West

My background and track record:
I moved to Bassetlaw three years ago and fell in love with the area and the community that lives here. I am a legal researcher, with a background in international   human rights law. Prior to my current role, I worked in the Post-16 Centre and Outwood Academy Portland in Worksop, supporting students with their university applications.

Why I am standing in Worksop West:
It’s clear that the major parties have let this area down, so I’m standing to provide people living in Worksop West with a real alternative on the ballot paper. It is my firm belief that Green politics - those of environmentalism, of inclusion, and of social and economic justice - offer a path towards a fairer society. One where public services are properly funded, where workers are treated with dignity, and where communities across Bassetlaw have the resources that they need to thrive.

 am passionate about supporting our community and am always looking for ways to get involved and help out. I have been actively supporting the campaign to oppose the proposed plastics incinerator on Shireoaks Road, so it’s possible that I have already knocked on your door a few times to hand out leaflets!

As we approach the NCC #LocalElections2025 on the 1st of May, I wanted to share more about my reasons for standing in Worksop West.

The major parties have failed our community & it's time #votegreen and try something different! Together we can build a fairer, greener Bassetlaw. Read more here ⬇️

We don't have the money or capacity to campaign everywhere and are struggling for volunteers to run just about everything. We'd love to give people more options, but I think everyone involved is just flat out. I know I am.
