Over the last few weeks @CambridgeLabour have agreed to support a unitary authority, that will ensure City Cllr’s. are outvoted by South Cambs Cllr’s. Last night they de facto supported a Development Company that will take over our planning process. 🧌 @CambridgeLabour are selling @camcitco residents into subservience! 🧌

Good to see that the Planning Committee did not approve the application for the market. How did officers get this so wrong?

At the Cambridge Festival 2026, What’s Your Mill Road organised by @MillRoadHistory. A wonderful map, which we added too, and an opportunity to talk to people connected with the community. 🙂 I was surprised that no other Cllrs were there. 🫢 @MillRoad4People @YPCambridge

Listening to a talk on resilience and it raises a question. What would we do if electricity failed right now and didn’t come back on? 🫢 Currently there is no guidance. Perhaps there should be? 🤨 The list of questions that spring to mind is endless. 1/ can household solar panels supply electricity? 2/ can batteries power a router, central heating? 🙁 3/…..

Yesterday, I engaged in a thoughtful discussion about the historic city of Cambridge and the broader issues facing Britain. We addressed the ongoing neglect by both the Labour and Conservative parties, as well as the concerns surrounding the Liberal Democrats' management of a budget beyond their expertise—an approach that risks further harm to our city. I believe the Green Party, lacks the trustworthiness needed to foster real change, potentially prolonging the challenges we face. The path forward requires the resignation of those who do not prioritize the welfare of our city and its residents. As a political expert, cancer consultant, and businessman, I am committed to leading initiatives that support our communities and essential services. I'm grateful for the solidarity shown by Mr. David Carmona and appreciate the insights of former councillor Neil Schailer, whose support for our shared vision is invaluable. Together, we can build a brighter future for Cambridge. election 2026 @danomrac #CastleWard #SafetyFirst #Cambridge #ResignNow #CyclingSafety #CambridgeDisgrace @cam_friends @TerryMac999 @CambsCops @MohammedAzamud5 @lewis_herbert @PaulBrackleyCI @JoannaRTaylor @SU_Welfare @CambsUnitaries @CambridgeIndy @camcitco @camcycle @CambsNewsOnline @camdiary @markrwilliamson @julianclover @MillRoad4People @JoannaRTaylor @CarbonNtrlCambs @CUH_NHS @CamBreakfast @CambsClimate @foodbankcambs @Dave4YP

I am increasingly pessimistic about who will have power after 2028. 🫢 The new unitary will have more Cllrs from South Cambs. 🫤 South Cambs has different needs to the city. 😶 Where do you think they will spend money?

Over the last few weeks Cambridge Labour Party have agreed to support a new Unitary Authority to replace the City Council in 2028. The distribution of Cllr’s will ensure City Cllr's are outvoted by South Cambs Cllr's on the unitary. 📷 Last night, Cambridge Labour de facto supported a Development Company that will take over our planning process. 📷 The Labour Party are selling Cambridge City residents into subservience!

Tonight. Full Council. 🙁 Consultation on the Establishment of a centrally led Urban Development Corporation for Greater Cambridge. 🙁 Why is there a full council meeting a few days before the consultation has finished? 🙁 Why not afterwards? 🙁 This is a massive decision. Cambridge’s response should be taken by Full Council. 🙁 Not by The Leader (of a party that will not be in power after May). 🙁 @YPCambridge @Dave4Romsey @thisisyourparty @cambs_socialist @CambridgeIndy @BBCCambs @CambsNewsOnline @libdemscambridge

🇬🇧 Jeremy Corbyn just told the truth Parliament won't: "The government is lying to you. Britain is directly involved in Trump's illegal war on Iran." Directly involved. Not just hosting bases. Not just selling weapons. Directly. RAF Fairford launched the bombers. British intel helped target. British silence enabled the killing. Corbyn named it. The government denied it. The people should believe the one with nothing to lose. Illegal war. Direct involvement. Government lies. Three truths. One voice. The establishment will ignore him. History won't.
