Today is ‘D Day’ for Bristol and Brislington - bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-n… - If approved it will result in the worst environmental disaster to be suffered by the city since the Blitz in WWII.

'Every breach of planning which goes unchallenged sends the message that planning rules are effectively unenforceable and this is an affront to justice.'

@AudreySuzanne @andrewtlynch @ChopsyBristol @SageAndOnion @MrDanack @bristol_citizen @JoePBanks And why don't they publish all their FoIs in the same way that @WhatDoTheyKnow does?
That way we could all see if our proposed FoI has already been asked and track those we are interested in.
Obvs.
English
@AudreySuzanne @andrewtlynch @ChopsyBristol @SageAndOnion @MrDanack @bristol_citizen @JoePBanks The detailed breakdown make interesting reading - bristol.gov.uk/council/data-p….
They could add a lot more detail such as the FoI pipeline:
how many were successful / refused,
went to an Internal review, and
were referred to the ICO, and
the outcome of the ICO review.
English
Both FoIs & SARs are significantly worse than 90% target and are impacted by the increased number of requests and a lack of dedicated resources in non-centralised services.

Or impacted by lack of transparency?

This is in relation to a Freedom of Information request of 22 Oct 2025. Appalling service with no sense of urgency to improve it, leading to multiple requests for internal reviews. I hope @JoePBanks has the energy to report this to @ICOnews @stillawake @MrDanack @BristolTreeFora
English
Yep...not a single one ... ever!

@WlStoke_Lodge The contest to this is that Planning "Enforcement" has never done anything, ever. It only exists to troll the people who make legitimate complaints. @BristolTreeFora has never made a successful complaint. No enforcement of illegal tree removal in Bristol for at least a decade
English
@AudreySuzanne @BristolCouncil This has become the default response to internal review requests where the substance of the FoI has been ignored - apologise, crocodile tears...yet still the FoI is ignored.
English
I have investigated the cause of the delay & identified
-lack of clarity regarding the service most likely to hold & manage the type of information you are interested in
-lack of technical understanding on using @BristolCouncil's case management system

@martr101 Indeed it was! I have complained to Planning Enforcement.
Can you show the location of the tree. Are there others?
English
sound on. Just how many piles are they driving in? It's an awful lot!

Cotham School keeps us all busy with its misleading claims about anything and everything to do with Stoke Lodge. @BristolTreeFora takes issue with its latest statement 👇🏻 and we’ll be issuing some corrections of our own this weekend to set the record straight.

In its Information Statement of October 2025 concerning its recent fencing works at Stoke Lodge Playing Fields, @CothamSchool has chosen to misunderstand our concerns about the welfare of the trees at Stoke Lodge Playing Fields. Here is our response: bristoltreeforum.org/2025/10/23/cot…

The latest proposal to abandon Local Green Spaces to protect open spaces across the city is a mistake.

We have submitted this statement to the Economy and Skills committee for its meeting on 22 September trying to understand just how many planning breaches Bristol suffers from. It remains far from clear:
