@IsSaddleThereIs @ContactHaringey @VeoliaUKHelp You need to prune trees before the birds are nesting. Unfortunately, trees that flower early might need to be pruned when in blossom. Soft fruit trees in general shouldn’t be pruned in cold weather as they are prone to diseases. There are many factors to take into account.

Hi @ContactHaringey @VeoliaUKHelp. Is it normal to cut back trees on residential streets when they’re in full bloom? Such a shame!

@francesca_kms You mean make YOUR roads safer.

Spring has sprung 🌷 LTNs aren’t just about reducing cars, they’re about giving streets back to people. They cut air pollution, make roads safer for kids, and create quieter, more connected communities where walking and cycling become the easy choice.

@IndieChris71 Not that same old line. LTNs don’t reduce car usage. Instead they make trips longer & reroute traffic from areas of high car ownership onto poor roads that tend to be where bus routes are. Get the facts. Check out the last census. See who lives in the poor rds & uses buses.

@indieHackney The problem appears to be lots of people in cars, in a city that has excellent public transport and an improving cycling network. Imagine if even half of them had decided to cycle or get the bus or tube instead.

10 mins ago. View from the 56 in Hackney.

This is what the “traffic belongs on main roads” approach has led to. Widespread replacement of bus lanes with cycle lanes, and rerouting traffic from areas of high car ownership onto bus routes. The result, artificially-caused congestion, reduced overall bus speeds and longer working days, eating into bus driver sleep. It’s no wonder so many casualties are occurring. Post-2020 policies are arguably more dangerous than forcing every driver to drink a can of #SpecialBrew pre-shift.

0345am … The London cycling campaign and many of its members like to paint the narrative that if you are against LTNs then you are anti cycling. FALSE stories they like to push forward. I’m against increased harm pushed upon children and poorer communities for a middle class male dominated hobby.

@gawl07 @hackneycouncil Hi Gary. We know why Hackney Council is happy to dump all the traffic in certain roads and increase the house prices of themselves and the rich supporter of local Labour. PM me & please support my campaign, if yiu can in any way. crowdfunder.co.uk/p/vote-clair-f…

@indieHackney People living or working on that part of Dalston Lane obviously aren't important to @hackneycouncil. This is how it is every day sadly

Is @hackneycouncil just ignoring the pollution being pumped into locals lungs as a result of their Graham Road & Amhurst Road works? Urgent readings are needed to Amhurst rd, Dalston Lane, Lower Clapton road, Urswick Rd and surrounding areas. This is in the name of cleaner air?!

@angusjfrench @gilbertsmyth @HackneyLabour @mayorofhackney Deffo.

@indieHackney @gilbertsmyth @HackneyLabour @mayorofhackney Also, building new homes for properly affordable/social rent is good, no? I appreciate that lots and lots of it is needed.

Why do we have a housing crisis?

@angusjfrench @gilbertsmyth @HackneyLabour @mayorofhackney Agree. So, why are Hackney’s Lab pols going on about this now? Trying hard to win back the left?

@indieHackney @gilbertsmyth @HackneyLabour @mayorofhackney Labour did at least make it more difficult for tenants to buy (and then sell) and reduced the discount. But the damage had already been done, hadn't it? Thatcher bought in Right to Buy in 1980. Labour didn't take office until 1997. See graph 4 here: news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/in_pictur….

@angusjfrench @gilbertsmyth @HackneyLabour @mayorofhackney Why bother asking a question everyone knows the answer to? Something are historically documented. Do, however, tell me what the Labour governments since then have done to reverse that “right”. And L et’s not even get into Angela Rayner.

@indieHackney @gilbertsmyth @HackneyLabour @mayorofhackney Isn't she right though? Didn't Thatcher's Right to Buy both deplete local authority finances (since council tenants were able to buy at significant discounts) and deplete the housing stock (since local authorities had to clear debt before rebuilding)?

@gregsmith_uk Hi Greg, Thank you for your follow up question on floating bus stops. I have been volunteering with @NFBUK the national blind person’s charity doing, by far, the most work on this. We were not included in this engagement! Can you ask what DPTAC & those engaged said?

NEW VID Our policies on Transport youtu.be/5dH14yHX9M4

This the rank injustice of LTNs. This is why we fight them.

@HackneyIndSG So pleased to see that these candidates have taken onboard the ideas of @SocEnvJustice . We have been campaigning for 5 yrs about the issues they have touched upon in this video. Would be great if they would join with us. LTNs are environmental racism & environmental classism.

@NbrsVsWoodSmoke @indieHackney The smell of woodsmoke...!

Raving about the health benefits of saunas, yet no mention of the health impacts of this particular wood burning type! “I smell faintly of woodsmoke.” Yes, that will be the carcinogens! theguardian.com/society/2026/m…

A great night out at @HackneyEmpire , Belter for the Shelter, hosted by the always amazing Laura Smith. Lovely to be able to laugh for a good cause. The raffle prizes alone gave her 1/2 hr of material. People I was with were hoping not to win the Sourdough Bread Baking Course.😂
