Tories fail green-o-meter test

Check this link - see the truth about the Tories

And the Lib Dems can't counter-act the failure.

Not surprised.
Increasingly infuriated.
We can't afford a Government that sees little 'value' in the environment, biodiversity, nature, wildlife.

We don't want a Government that shows no grasp of the urgency of the biggest issue our planet has ever faced - that one of the species upon it is doing it and every other species massive harm.

Sustrans message gets great response

Ben, Hannah, Sue and I spent a hectic time yesterday at Exeter Uni's main campus. Our Sustrans stall was in the sports hall, though to us Sustrans is about transport rather than sports cycling.
So we split up and took turns covering the rest of the Freshers Day stalls.
As ever, masses of students with ever-growing armfulls/bag-fulls of literature.

And so many of them said "Yes!" and took our cycling leaflets.
Exeter is such a cycling friendly City, it's actually quicker and easier to get to campus by bike than by car.

Can't praise this company enough.
Seddon Group painters along with Danielle, their Public Relations manager, spent all last Friday and some of Saturday finishing off the painting of the children's play area in  Pinhoe's Arena Park.
They gave their time and materials free.

Exeter City Council's parks maintenance team quickly strimmed away the grass growing at the bottom of the railings and we were off! Residents, volunteers and Seddon's painters enjoying the great sunshine weather as we worked hard.
Thanks also to Jean, the volunteer from Exeter Parks Watch who most often gets stuck in with the residents on local projects.
The children's play area is far more attractive now. There's new play equipment. And with the plans in the pipeline there's more to come.
