Can’t we just employ a few thousand people on proper contracts and wages to clean our streets, parks and rivers properly? Not outsourced, not volunteers. A proper job a fella can live off. Like we used to when we were a society.

Anne Hidalgo started with school streets. Then in an Ocean’s 11-style heist… 70k parking spaces disappeared. 50%. Turned into parks and green space and bike lanes. The greatest heist in history. And suddenly Paris is a different city….

🚨 Another day, another batch of misleading, polarising, and irresponsible anti-immigrant headlines from the usual suspects that need debunking and contextualising... The Sun has splashed a story claiming asylum seekers were receiving “£6,500 each” in compensation for seized
