@RyobiToolsUK Shame your website won't actually let you pay, otherwise I'd have spent nearly £300 today.

@David_Cameron HS2 was doomed from the moment it's construction was awarded to a private contractor. HS2 should have been constructed by Network Rail. The unemployed could have been sent to work on it as part of a job skills program, thus saving Taxpayer money.

David Cameron@David_Cameron·
Today’s decision on HS2 is the wrong one. It will help to fuel the views of those who argue that we can no longer think or act for the long-term as a country; that we are heading in the wrong direction. HS2 was about investing for the long-term, bringing the country together, ensuring a more balanced economy and delivering the Northern Powerhouse. We achieved historic, cross-party support, with extensive buy-in from city and local authority leaders across the Midlands and North of England. Today’s announcement throws away fifteen years of cross-party consensus, sustained over six administrations, and will make it much harder to build consensus for any future long-term projects. All across the world, we see transformative, long-term infrastructure projects completed or underway. They show countries on the rise, building for future generations, thinking big and getting things done. I regret this decision and in years to come I suspect many will look back at today’s announcement and wonder how this once-in-a-generation opportunity was lost.

@CMPG Judging how close the front of the van is to the rear of the tow vehicle, how the heck did they manage to corner without the 2 vehicles touching?.

@BBCEssex Good luck getting anything done. The opposition will vote down everything the minority Conservatives put forward.

It's emerged Thurrock Council has stopped the collection of garden waste bins for the foreseeable future, just one month after they were reintroduced. The cash-strapped local authority has told residents it's axed the brown bin service and has no plans to resume it

Essex county councillors set to receive 5.3% rise in their allowances increasing the cost to the taxpayer by more than £60,000. The recommendation from independent remuneration panel means the allowance will be going up to almost £13,000 per year bbc.in/2Qw5OjW

@Essex_CC Hope you give your workers a payrise above inflation this year. Especially the Ugobus crews who are getting hacked off with the way they are treated.
