Last night's result was a real team effort - and Stroud Greens were on the ground in Gorton and Denton, and on the phones, making it happen. Want to join in with the fun? join.greenparty.org.uk

Gloucestershire Police & Crime Panel: We didn't just wave the budget through. We attached recommendations. We wanted regular work-stream updates relating to ICT, Estates and New Operating Model. Also info on work to tackle inequity and improve trust in policing.

Bluesky suspended my first Cllr account a month or two back. It may have been because I use Simplelogin so that US Tech companies can't track me and link e-mail addresses. I appealed but no dice. No chance to backup etc.
