Local Election Time again May 2nd 2019 - Tubecast #03 - Nuclear Power



The more I learn about both the past and future of Nuclear Power the more passionate I become about trying to help folk realise the significance of the lack of transparency and accountability this sector wallows in.

This video can only give some insight into the concerns I have over the proposed Bradwell B. But these concerns cover all the potential New Nuclear sites in the UK (or anywhere!). I should point out that these issues are shared by our friends further up the East Coast trying to explain why Sizewell C is also wrong...

Local Election Time again May 2nd 2019 - Tubecast #XR - Climate Change



Because the weather was so gorgeous over the Easter weekend I decided to just record some extra thoughts about Climate Change and the Extinction Rebellion protests happening around the precious planet...

Local Election Time again May 2nd 2019 - Tubecast #02 - Keep Libraries Open



In my second topic in TubeCast #02 I challenge Essex County Council's (ECC) proposals to close down a whole raft of libraries and to downgrade others to volunteer run community projects. ECC sprang this on local councils, libraries, library staff and the public who were invited to take part in a "Consultation". This process has been flawed throughout, used out of date or spurious data and would not stand up to any sort of legal scrutiny.

West Mersea library is one of those under threat, so let's all love our library more and demonstrate to ECC how they can be enhanced such that Essex becomes known as THE County that cherishes Information, Imagination and Inspiration...

Local Election Time again May 2nd 2019 - Tubecast #01 - Housing for Locals



The first in a micro series of video-blogs created to support my bid as Green Party candidate for the Mersea and Pyefleet in the Colchester Borough Council elections on May 2nd 2019. Not only am I up against the usual suspects it is a tougher field this year as the only UKIP candidate standing in the borough is in my ward plus a new independent, my friend (perhaps fiend!) and the popular current Mayor of West Mersea.

It is hard to call and the results will be of great interest to all the other parties and independents represented!
