Cllr Lezley Picton 🏳️‍🌈⚽️🏏♐️

So "X" has locked me out of my original account. @CllrLPicton is now my only Council account. My old account will be deleted in a few weeks.

Celebrating women everywhere who make our world a better place. I’ve had the privilege of working with some incredibly dedicated, strong and brave women in my time and I am a better person because of them. Last post from me on “X”, seems sort of right somehow!

Happy Shropshire Day #LoveWhereILive

Never Forget, never again #HolocaustRemembrance

Hey @nationalgriduk could you fix your roadworks on Wenlock Road in Shrewsbury please. They’re a right mess and it’s very difficult for vehicles to get through. Ref 👉 one.network/?GB141558637

@_AndersonStuart And we need to remember the impact these increases will have on companies that provide vital services for our most vulnerable residents. Where do they go to recoup their increased costs? Why the council of course! #visciouscircle

Watch my contribution to a recent debate on the increased employer National Insurance Contributions. Business owners are working people. Labour broke their promise and our small businesses will pay the price. stuartanderson.org.uk/news/stuart-an…

Does the torrential rain stop the @BBCShropshire #CarolsIntheSquare festivities? Oh no it doesn’t! Merry Christmas all. @ShrewsburyTC

Be the one to ask “Are you ok?” It might be the most important question ever.

@Dan4Burnell @theatresevern Oh no it’s not 😂

. @theatresevern official start of #Christmas2024 @CllrLPicton

⚠️ SCAM TEXT ALERT We’re aware that some people may have received a text message saying they could be eligible for winter support funding - see picture. This is a scam, please ignore and delete the text. Don't click on the link or make any payment. orlo.uk/CiAXH

@_AndersonStuart @Keir_Starmer Seriously hope there’s a chunk of money for Local Government/Social Care in that list #broken

⁦@Keir_Starmer⁩ has just spent 100 days telling us there is no money that’s why he is cutting Winter Fuel Allowance. Now he is going to spend billions 🤷‍♂️ Starmer to pledge billions for transport, schools and hospitals in budget theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

@DRobertson_Star Towards The Wrekin 😍 Jupiter is also very clear to the naked eye.

Shropshire Local Mobile service will be at #Ellesmere Town Hall on Weds 2 Oct from 10am-2pm. We'll be on hand to answer any queries you may have on council services including subscribing to our garden waste collection service. Find your nearest Local orlo.uk/4PmBZ

@_AndersonStuart There’s a surprise - not! AND the NHS and Local Government will pick up the impact and the costs. #NoThoughtGiven

This is shocking and dangerous. Questions need to be answered and the impact assessment should be done immediately.

Today is #BackBritishFarmingDay Our farmers work day in day out to provide for us. Join me in saying thank you to all our #Shropshire farmers 🙏 #ThankYou
