Cllr. Tim Wye

I've been at the Cheltenham cricket festival promoting our new cricket and climate change initiative The Next Test. Thanks to @Gloscricket for hosting. thenexttest.org

@Gloscricket I know it's an ECB event but can you get some more bag checkers in

VG event yesterday. Presentation of slow the smoke project in ashley- citizen research in Ashley. Hip hop artist T Relly and Miriam quick worked with residents on new track. @MarvinJRees I've e mailed you àudio link. Useful for you at COP?bristolapproach.org/bristol-approa….

@BDEFbites @carla_denyer @bristolgreen No problem. Happy to discuss follow up and offer from administration to discuss it further with you.

A large group of @bristolgreen councillors stepped out of a meeting at City Hall briefly this afternoon to meet with @BDEFbites members. Cllr @tim_wye and I updated them on the Mayor's response to their requests (bristoldef.org.uk/disabled-peopl…) for a more inclusive #CleanAirZone

Got reply from @BritishCycling after cancelling membership telling me how they will be influencing Shell's sustainability 🤣🤣🤣. Shell won't say what they are investing in renewables but 90%+ still fossil fuels. @chrishoy shame on you too for being duped by this.

@ashleyrpz @JayDown9 @CleoDanceBaton @Amirahcole1 I heard it went well. Sadly I had covid

@GlassSpiderTour @PatelBhavini @profhelenward @BritishCycling They need to take the example of other sporting institutions. I'm a Gloucester cricket member. They have a clear ethical position on sponsorship as do many sports organisation. And after the advice on not too cycle on Queens funeral they are way out of touch with membership

@PatelBhavini @profhelenward @BritishCycling First stop wearing plastic Nike Adidas etc. trainers made from polyurethane, nylon or latex, made using fossil fuel first (glass houses etc….. ) 25 billion pairs made every year. Plus aviation for transportation. Get behind a no plastic made trainers for @britishcycling

I’ve resigned from @BritishCycling.

@profhelenward @BritishCycling I've e mailed them to cancel membership too

@carla_denyer Turn golf courses into wind and solar. People are swapping golf gear for cycling lycra anyway

So the PM Liz Truss has decided that we should use land for food production and not #solarenergy. Here's an infographic of current land use in the UK. Solar farms occupy 0.1% - almost too small to see. Golf courses on the other hand...

@DanWeisselberg1 @MarvinJRees @CllrAsherCraig @judebrew @HeatherMack4 @carla_denyer Yes!

Hey @MarvinJRees @CllrAsherCraig @judebrew @tim_wye @HeatherMack4 @carla_denyer who think this looks good?

@BritishCycling what are you doing taking sponsorship from @Shell . They are using you for green washing. I am cancelling my membership forthwith. How can you be so out of tune with your members?

@MarvinJRees @Eurovision @YTL_Arena @BristolPride @carlyraejepsen I've e mailed you @MarvinJRees . As a life long Eurovision fan ( as featured in the guardian this year no less)be happy to help and show cross party support.

🇺🇦 Ukraine won @Eurovision but sadly won't host in 2023 🌍 As a City of Sanctuary, #Bristol can be the caretaker next year 🏗️ We can custom-build the perfect #Eurovision at @YTL_Arena as I just announced at @BristolPride before @carlyraejepsen’s set ☎️ #ThisIsBristolCalling

@krisharris101 @ASPBristol @BristolCouncil @judebrew @Amirahcole1 @marleybennett @MissAmalian @CheneyCraig @CllrEllieking Yes. Really helpful

@beardedjourno That's going to take up too much space! We will never get to host Eurovision there now!

Astonishing plans for Turbo Island 🏝

Privaledged to support @carla_denyer at @TolpuddleFest . Sorry I got waylaid talking to trade union friends. Would have liked to introduce you!

Great decision @Gloscricket to manage player safety in this heatwave.#cricketandclimatwchange @XRCricketClub

Just wanted to add my solidarity with industrial action taken this week by @UNISONSW with Bristol care workers against local care home provider Monica's trust. Changing terms and conditions for most underpaid and undervalued people not on!

@cabotpschool Not that I wish to appear churlish, bit I was there as well! Glad they enjoyed it, it was fun hosting

Solidarity with @UNISONSW over action to protect worker rights at st Monica's. Also, so hard to recruit care staff I don't understand it

@BugBrand @makawi5 @BristolCouncil @BristolDon @bristolgreen @beardedjourno @BristolCycling I am not great with Twitter but happy to carry on discussion cllr.tim.wye@bristol.gov.uk

@tim_wye @makawi5 @BristolCouncil @BristolDon @bristolgreen @beardedjourno @BristolCycling Nice to 'meet' you Tim. I remain highly sceptical - as someone who's had a business by the junction for 10+ years. True, paint makes no difference. But willing to bet it'll remain a cycling nightmare. Minor upgrades for pedestrians.
