This is what all the birds are tweeting at @EMA_Airport @MAG_PressOffice @SEGROplc @Prologis @EMidsFreeport @SleathDavid @norasenior1 B8 sheds totally unwanted/ needed in our heritage village @Hack4Labour @MJSquiresReform @CharlesAPugsley @NWLeics @LeicsCountyHall @CllrDTaylor

Why aren't Freeports and SEZs being debated on Questiontime? @BBCNews @EuropeanPowell @SalvoFreeports so many unanswered questions on transparency, tax payers money, tax incentives and so much more. @DailyMail @DailyMirror @Telegraph @guardian @guardiannews @BylineTimes

Guess Diseworth will need to plant hedgerows too if developers get their way. The biodiversity loss will be huge. Humans don't exist in isolation. We're part of an infrastructure! Which is essential, not concrete! @EMidsFreeport @ProfBrianCox @nature_org @Natures_Voice

Future need for warehousing is usef to justify destruction of agric land.Well here you are @LeicsCountyHall @Hack4Labour @CllrDTaylor @CllrJohnLegrys @glenfieldconse2 @craig_smithUK @AlexJJNorris hands off agric! Wheat fields not warehouses! derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/local-new…

Why would anyone think warehousing is better than this? Struggle to comprehend @SEGROplc @SleathDavid @EMidsFreeport @norasenior1 @EMA_Airport @MAG_PressOffice @AlexJJNorris @Hack4Labour how do you agree to this? @CllrDTaylor @craig_smithUK @CllrJohnLegrys stand up for nature?

Interesting Section 13 Subcommittee Arrangements acknowledges the 'lack of consistent attendance from senior individuals from partner organisations '. Looking forward to the progress of these Subcommittees or not.Rolling out 4/25.Taxpayers money eh! @JimFunnel1 @EuropeanPowell

Draw your own conclusions as to why it's taken so long for @EMidsFreeport to have a policy on transparency. Effective from January 2025. @EuropeanPowell @bbcemt @JimFunnel1 @Hack4Labour @craig_smithUK @CllrJohnLegrys @CllrDTaylor @PrivateEyeNews linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

If Keir Starmer had said before the election that he would remove the winter fuel allowance from millions of pensioners, add inheritance to family farms and family businesses, council tax & energy price increases, raise university tuition fees, plaster mass-scale solar panels on thousands of acres of prime farmland despite huge local community objections, spaff £22bn of taxpayers’ money on carbon capture machines, give £3bn a year of taxpayers’ money to Ukraine, betray WASPI women, hang out with BlackRock, pledge a 20% cut in meat & dairy and get exposed for receiving over £100,000 worth of freebies - he almost certainly wouldn’t have won. He duped the electorate. An utterly shameless display of snake oil political salesmanship. And still he lectures all of us in that gratingly sanctimonious manner of his like we are all somehow the problem here.

This is our reality @EMAPressOffice @EMA_Airport Want to increase noise, light, & air pollution by building 24/7 operational warehousing in Diseworth.The retort if there is one will be about reducing noisy night flights & 28,000 jobs. Heard it all! le.ac.uk/news/2024/sept…

Correct!

Where are the 2 year updates? @bertie__adam @tonyroe @The_AEF @carlbenfield @MAG_PressOffice @HS2theTruth @carolvorders @NoAirportExp @NWLeics @CastleDonPC @blakepain @LeicsCountyHall @EuropeanPowell @blowhound @OfficeforEP @envirocare4you @EnvironmentEEYE @HPRU_EEH @guardianeco
