Pleasure to meet this young lady making her strong voice and opinions heard on Gaza. She, her sister and mum used to campaign and door knock for Darren Jones and "carried on even tho he thought he lost". Today he couldn't look her in the eye. "She will never vote Labour again"

So we're just meant to take your word for it @MarvinJRees ? You've been nothing but hostile and disrespectful to residents on your visits. Your cabinet members threatened residents with homeless. You've avoided answering questions every chance you got and banned me from city hall

Hi @MarvinJRees & @KyeDudd , when will you be updating Barton House residents about the results of the survey? Its 4pm Friday. If it won't be this weekend, as your clearly seen saying in video, don't you think it'd be good to make a statement saying there's been a delay?

Since the evacuation of Barton House last month, hundreds of residents have been fighting for answers. They submitted their questions to yesterday’s Bristol Council Meeting. But the council shut down the meeting after answering just ONE of 15 questions.

They are monstrosities even for residents, often neglected by councils. Breading ground for poor health, poor socio-economic out comes, anti social behaviour. None of the CCTVs work in the Lawrence Hill/Barton Hill area where I live. Tower blocks have no place in modern society

For me this motion will also serve to bring to light who Bristol Labour actually 'delivers' and 'gets things done' for; business interest or everyday Bristolians who struggle to find housing or spend a huge portion of their wages on astronomical rents to dodgy landlords/agents.

It’s so disappointing that labour councillors won’t support a motion to bring over 5,000 empty homes into use and help tackle landbanking. Since they aren’t going to listen to me maybe you can help educate them @emptyhomes ?

£400k was apparently spend on making barton house "safe". Contrast that with £3.5M spent on security and hotel. Yet nothing spent on emergency lighting, evacuation measures for the sick, elderly etc...

Using a father, protecting his children, a neighbour and a campaigner protecting his community as political punch bag really shows lack of awareness. The fire alarms and other works are nothing more than a sticking plaster for a building that's way past its life expectancy.

Have to disagree. Rees's been avoiding residents he deems unworthy of his time. He sabotaged the entire full council meeting today, he's trolled and antiginised ACORN members, emotions ran high on both sides. If he was intimidated why did he come out again when we were leaving

Inquiries are always established by govt ministers. Has @ThangamMP asked @michaelgove for an enquiry? She has been absolutely useless. Never seen or met or supported Barton house residents. Probably because she knows none of us will ever vote for her or @LabourBristol again.
