With @darren-green.bsky.social , today at Environment & Green Investment committee of Cambridgeshire County Council to debate and pass the new Climate Change Strategy. I am delighted to work with officers on this and it means climate data will be prioritised earlier in council decision-making

I chat with many Cambridge residents - fixing the roads and cyclepaths often comes up as a key concern. I was so delighted when our efforts to get Barton Road, a major artery into Cambridge, got fixed - despite previously being told it was impossible and there was no budget! Cheers.

Our County councillors have been reflecting on the last 8 months.

Greens in the room are holding Lib Dems and even Reform to account and making life better for residents across Cambridgeshire.
