Thanks to @ydmt and @LothersdaleWG for the pollinator sign boards erected this morning on our new wildflower patch in front of the Primary School. No action yet but we’re all set for spring. Watch this space!

A grant from @bradfordmdc allowed @Addingham_Group to buy a TIC & equally important, obtain professional training for an operative. It’s going absolutely great guns around our village!

Congratulations on your anniversary – at Doncaster, England
12 years ago today (below) Civic Voice launched at an event in London with a mission to promote civic pride and speak up for communities. It's been a long and winding road, but when people come together, something special can happen. Thank you to all who have supported our work.

Here’s Scout back with us in the village now waiting release in the spring near the Scout Hut where she was found in poor condition last October. Thanks to Steph from Bingley Rescue she’s now in perfect health and weighing a mighty 900 g.

Between 1999- 2002 @GordonBrown sold 401 out of our total of 725 tonnes of gold reserves at $275 per ounce. By 2011, gold was selling at $1900 per ounce. Once again, @UKLabour left office - and our economy - in a far worse state than that they inherited.

Private pension funds were raided by @GordonBrown in 1997 to the tune of £98 billion. The cumulative effect between 1997 - 2021 - is circa £280 billion in lost pension credits. And @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer wants us to believe it can be trusted with our economy.
