The Home Officeโ€™s new TikTok account wants you to see migration through a negative lens.

We refuse this toxic narrative. Migration is a positive force in this country.

Oxford Greens have gained a 9th councillor, making them joint second largest opposition in the City Council. Independent Cllr Edward Mundy, who was elected for Labour in '21 and '22, but had left Labour along with 9 other councillors over Keir Starmerโ€™s position on Gaza, joined the Greens today.

Water supplies disrupted in Oxford after water main bursts A burst main under a cycle path in the OX3 postcode area of Oxford is affecting water supplies.

#ThamesWater go into 2026 in much the same way as they have spent 2025: repairing burst pipes in #Oxford! Tonight they're still working on the burst pipe in #Northway and #Headington which is causing disruption to many residents. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

How plants can help reduce flood risk When I lived in Scotland, people often used to say to me โ€œDonโ€™t worry if youโ€™re not happy with the weather, itโ€™ll change in 15 minutes.โ€ And they werenโ€™t lying. It wasnโ€™t uncommon to have all four sea...

Is this a good time to remind you all about our guest article on helping to prevent flood risk with plants?!

15 new affordable homes in Westlands Drive, Northway, have been given the go-ahead. City Council housing arm Ox Place is building them as a โ€œlow car developmentโ€, with just 3 car spaces (2 wheelchair users, 1 visiting carers) but bike spaces for each house plus communal storage.

of COURSE Reform know Brexit has made us poorer, and will do so for many years. That's the whole point. Reform have no success if the people in this country are happy and satisfied. They thrive on people being frustrated and angry. They NEED as many of us to be poor and without perspective.

Transport hubs were one of the key things disabled people in our recent research recommended.

One place, where people can walk, wheel and cycle to catch buses, trams and trains; with seating, shelter and accessible toilets whilst we wait.

The Guardian view on Labour targeting nature: the problem isnโ€™t snails, but a broken housing model | Editorial Editorial: Rachel Reevesโ€™s drive to speed up development is beginning to treat wildlife and the environment as expendable. Voters want homes built, but not at any cost

Spot on โ€œMany of Labourโ€™s younger voters are already tempted by the Green Party, which combines environmentalism with left wing economics. Now by mocking Green protections & cosying up to developers, chancellor is giving them more reasons to jump shipโ€. So here it is join.greenparty.org.uk/join-us/
