Cllr Steve Davis

@sianberry.bsky.social and Cllr Steve Davis ( @withdeangreens.bsky.social ) are speaking up for our city.

Here's why we're calling for an emergency council meeting, and demanding that Labour MPs provide answers on why they're backing brutal attacks against disabled people and the most vulnerable.

Labour promised ‘Change’, yet all we are seeing is more of the same cuts Let’s not allow Labour to pretend this is not a cuts budget, it is.  How refreshing and commendable to see a Labour councillor stand up for…

Same cuts, different axe

REAL HOPE. REAL CHANGE WHOSE SIDE IS LABOUR ON? Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ

So Labour can find the money to 'relax' their changes to the non-dom tax regime but they can't find the money to restore the winter fuel allowance or lift children out of poverty by scrapping the two-child benefit cap 🤔

Whose side are they on?

‘I was a multimillionaire, I had a beautiful girlfriend, I was unhappy’: the ups and downs of a supertrader Gary Stevenson grew up poor, got rich in the City – then found himself wrestling with depression. Now he says he’s the only person on the left who really understands the British economy – and the peop...

A mayor isn't needed to achieve council aims Happy New Year Brighton and Hove and to all avid Argus readers, wherever you may be. I hope that everyone has had a good start to 2025 and that you…

@bhgreens.bsky.social and Cllr Steve Davis are right. Labour leaders in Sussex need to be up front about their plans for a Greater Brighton Council and ask the public if that is what they want. #AskthePeople

It's an outrage to see so many County Councils, including Suffolk & Norfolk, asking to stop local elections.

The councillors wanting to decide on the shape of our councils for the next half century need to have a recent mandate.

UK government scraps plan to ban sale of gas boilers by 2035 ‘Future homes standard’ will not mandate replacing boilers with environmentally friendly alternative

Labour scrapping the phase out of gas boilers and backtracking on pledges of a 'rooftop solar revolution' is bitterly disappointing.

I also fear the revolving door of this Gov't and the 'environmental sector' means this won't receive the scrutiny it deserves.

Final motion and @withdeangreens.bsky.social says the increase on the bus fare cap from £2 to £3 will have huge consequence in the city with the higest level of bus use outside London. Families on lower incomes are 3x more likely to be on buses, they are a necessity #LDreporter #Brighton #Hove

Councillors push for local bus fare cap Opposition councillors are lobbying to keep a £2 bus fare, with the government due to lift the national cap to

We're certainly a breed apart 😀

Gosh no, our administration recently reduced car park charges

Labour Party tweet saying "The Tories lost control of our borders. Labour is taking it back." Above a picture of Keir Starmer in front of a Union Jack and the text "Keir Starmer has organised the three largest deportation flights in UK history"

The Labour Party are sinking to new depths - now copying propaganda from the most disgusting racists

@helenwithanh.bsky.social thanks for the add, love the radrunner

Me too, it was a great atmosphere and your fans were superb. Good luck for the rest of the season 🦁

Ah mate just got back from The Den, got to love a 92nd min equaliser 😀. Tbf your lot were decent especially as missing so many players. I'd rather you than Leeds right? 😁

@davenextthesea.bsky.social cheers for the follow, not a Sunderland fan are you? 😀

Cllr Davis is right, Brighton Labour's obsession with a Park&Ride site for the city is pure fantasy. Just look at the many expensive feasibility studies previous Labour administrations have commissioned. Even the unsuitable sites have gone, either built on or in the national park. Time to move on.

🧐

One minute into listening to Keir Starmers BBC local interview - and it's clear how much trouble we're in.

Justifying cutting off winter fuel payments to pensioners all around the country - he says it's a tight budget where they had to balance the books.

Starve kids and freeze pensioners...

Fewer cars will mean more high street shoppers It appears that the Administration have hit the panic button as the realisation that yet another set-in-concrete, nailed on, and utterly guaranteed…

So driving tractors past barriers with tens of thousands protesting a tax break is fine, but a Zoom call about the biggest issue humanity faces warrants jail? Makes sense.

Bristol City Council is not (yet) on Bluesky.

Please retweet this if you think that all local councils should open Bluesky accounts and use them for communicating with the public.

This will help me to make the case locally for them to get on it!

If only there was some way that the Labour Party could have known that their fantasy of building a massive car park on the South Downs National Park and then running a viable rapid and frequent bus service through the congested city streets was undeliverable. 🤔
