Warren Farm is home to a variety of species. Council plans put all that re-wilding at risk, that's why I've written to the Mayor urging him to take action & put pressure on Ealing Council to pump the brakes on this. Thanks to @CllrGaryMalcolm & all campaigners for their work.

I fully support the nurses. We are living with the most corrupt & incompetent government Britain has ever had, they’ve lined the pockets of their cronies & thrown £bns at fraudsters. Nurses cannot live on claps #FairPayforNursing #NursesStrike

Sent these photos by friends in Ealing. Unforgivable that children on & near busy rds whose lungs are already compromised are now breathing in more toxic air. The new social & environmental injustice has been created by a few but majority are suffering especially schools;shocking

Data are clear, congestion has increased dramatically on our boundary rds. Our MP cannot support the LTN anymore. 7 MONTHS is long enough! @EalingCllrs @JasbirAnand2 @P_DriscollW5W13 @fayblock @shawgareth @BindaRai1 @RupaHuq @DrOnkarSahotaAM Time to request their removal NOW!
Following the LTN event I held, I wrote to Cllr Bell summarising our discussion. I made it clear that while I believe them to be well-intentioned, LTNs must not disproportionately impact disadvantaged communities on the boundary roads. If this is happening, I cannot support them

@VirendraSharma @jamesmurray_ldn @RupaHuq @DrOnkarSahotaAM You need to ACT NOW! Why were ALL the LTNs placed in the wealthiest parts of Ealing & are pushing pollution toward social housing? Who designed them? #itsawhitemansworld #socialinjusticeofltns #labourisnotlistening

Residents living near Hanwell & West Ealing town centres should get tested due to South African variant case. From council press: “Ealing Council is asking residents living and working in parts of Hanwell and West Ealing to get a COVID-19 test, whether they have symptoms or not”

Shame on you @ealingcouncil & @EalingCllrs Taking advantage of the Elderly! A 85 year old (not on social media) just received 5 PCNs from Ealing's LTN cash cow scheme ANPR camera! That's £650 from his pension gone! He was on his way to his GP located in a different LTN ! 1/2

👩‍⚖High Court today "The Mayor and TfL "took advantage of the pandemic" to push through "radical changes". The decisions were not a rational response to the issues which arose as a result of the covid-19 pandemic"👨‍⚖.. Sounds familiar @EalingCllrs @EalingLD @EalingTories ? 👇

@RupaHuq @VirendraSharma @jamesmurray_ldn @EalingCouncil used laws to take advantage of COVID to get LTNs scheme installed but is not allowing keyworkers to efficiently deliver the vaccine💉. This is shameful ! Please MPs, SORT IT OUT NOW !

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 Ealing's LTN have generated 3/4 of a MILLION £ in PCN in 5 weeks alone! LTN are NOT a green initiative. @EalingCouncil have ignored their own review where 76% of residents opposed LTNs & decided to put more ANPR. 💰talks as far as @ealingcouncil is concerned.

@RupaHuq @VirendraSharma @jamesmurray_ldn Please follow your fellow MP @elliereeves & ask @EalingCouncil @juliangbell @JasbirAnand2 to obey Ealing's LTN commonplace results or organise a "CPZ style" consultation of residents affected & UPHOLD its outcome. Show us you care !
In a consultation on the Crystal Palace LTN over 60% of residents who turned out to vote were in favour of removing the scheme. I have made my opposition to the scheme clear over many months & have written to Croydon Cllrs asking that they uphold the outcome of the consultation.

🚨To the Pro-LTNer that decided to put a lock on the bollard on loveday road: By doing this, you are hindering emergency workers access, an offense under the "emergency workers (obstruction) Act 2006" with a fine of up to £5000. @EalingCllrs please condemn this act ASAP !🚨 #LTN/

Ealing Council is set to start full enforcement of trial Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) measures from Monday 7 December 2020, it has been confirmed. No consultation - the Labour Council is a complete disgrace.

🚨Myth Buster🚨 We see people comparing Ealing's LTNs's opposition to the smoking ban of 2007. Smoking ban was opposed by ONLY 22% of the population. Ealing's LTN opposition is growing from 70% to up to 93%! If you need to pick an analog: pick the poll tax with 78% opposition !
