I'm a Witham and Braintree Green Party member, and a non-political Parish Councillor in my home village.

In 2021, I was the Green Party candidate for the Heddingham Division of Essex County Council.

We believe millions of pounds of public money being awarded unfairly to a Conservative peer IS squarely in the public interest.

Our complaint to see the correspondence between Gove and Mone is currently with the Information Commissioner. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/nov/23/revealed-tory-peer-michelle-mone-secretly-received-29m-from-vip-lane-ppe-firm

Revealed: Tory peer Michelle Mone secretly received Β£29m from β€˜VIP lane’ PPE firm

Documents suggest husband passed on money from PPE Medpro, which secured Β£200m contracts after Mone lobbied ministers

And now, after over a year of digging, it seems Government will be forced to reveal which ministers, MPs or officials referred firms onto the 'VIP lane' for test and trace, too

Just waking myself up with a cup of #coffee and a quick burst of #MyChemicalRomance. How's your morning going?

My obligatorily #introduction :

I am a #GPEW member and Councillor for Trinity ward in Burnley, Lancashire, England, which has a high level of deprivation and mainly late 1890's terraced housing, which are often in poor condition and poorly insulated.

I have a progressive neurological disorder called Episodic Ataxia Type 2, imagine being on the waltzers 24/7 and that's a good day 😁.

Interests are #ukpolitics #ClimateChange #baking #cooking and #reading

A new workload model means I’m teaching three times more than last year
I’m worse off in real terms than I was a decade ago
And they’ve taken a large chunk out of my pension without negotiation
Are you at all surprised I’m on strike today?
We need to bring universities back into the public sector and fund them properly
