Did you know that @LancashireCC have announced a removal of the grant to parishes that helped maintain our rights of ways. In many cases the grant would need to be added to by parishes to do some of the work. It also helped with employment. @BBCLancashire

Why is @LancashireCC allowing Giant Hog Weed to reproduce on Riversway? It is an invasive species and can harm people. Please get it removed, if it goes to seed, we will see it coming back for at least 7 years. @prestonlabour

More children killed in their sleep last night as the terrorists known as russia pursue their goal of wiping all Ukrainians from existence. They pursue this goal every single night. #CloseTheSkies
Russia struck a village in Sumy region overnight with a massive drone attack—3 killed, including an 8-year-old boy. Six more injured, among them 3 children. Around 30 homes damaged.

I thought Amazon and other selling sites had to add the taxes for the destination country and show them. Trump frightened that #USA folk will work it out #taxingthem. BBC News - White House hits back at Amazon 'plan' to show tariff price rises - BBC News https://t.co/g6biJJclFE

Donald Trump called Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to complain about the plan, which the company said had been rejected.

St James Church on Moss Side in Leyland has been covered in graffiti. A large number of headstones attacked and the church walls. @LancsPolice were called a few hours ago. Still waiting on them to record the crime. A wedding is due to take place tomorrow. Shocking.

Makes you wonder what happened to foresight, extrapolation and imagination. No doubt there will be further "adjustments", meanwhile, those in need will suffer further
So let’s just get this crystal clear. If somebody is trying to manufacture a laptop in the U.S., the components that they import are going to be tariffed at 145%. But if somebody simply makes the laptop entirely in China, they are fully tariff free? And this is all to bring

Anyone who may have had a CB radio will get this. Seems CB radios are making a bit of a comeback. I had a lot of fun with my various set ups over the years, from using Yagi arrays to a helium balloon from Devils Dyke.

Odd how some US Citizens are celebrating a huge jump in taxes they will pay. There is nothing in place as yet to replace those sanctioned imports. Does this now mean that the cost of the US bit of TicTok has substantially increased?

I have seen how hate I have seen throughout my life has affected communities. It's spores sit quietly, waiting for the darkness.
People need to listen to this clip over and over every day to finally get it. If you ever wondered what you would do to stop WW2 you’re doing it now. #RussiaIsATerroristState

Sadly, we see a number of adverts from some outlets that advertise activities which need licensing. The trapping of birds in the UK needs a license. https://t.co/aIGbiS87tk

Hey, @eBay_UK how, using your prescriptive reporting set up can I report a description issue. A 6.5kW 380 bar pressure washer. Equates to a 27 amp, 5511 psi washer. Exceeds a UK 13A by 2 & the pressure can injure and destroy stuff This is a misleading, false and dangerous add

Quite astonished that a Cllr who advocated protecting our Green Belt suggests that Chorley should build houses and factories on Green Belt. I am sure @ChorleyCouncil members may have something to say about that.

Add to the fracking debacle supported by LCC Tories, there is every risk that the frackers could walk away. https://t.co/aN6j2IWVIF

There is “material uncertainty” over the finances of companies in the Cuadrilla oil and gas group, annual accounts have revealed.

The Frack loving Tories at LCC are still allowing Cuadrilla to ride roughshod over the planning process. They supported the fracking of our lands and would have allowed more. https://t.co/3RnxpUkW4m

The fracking company, Cuadrilla, has been given just over four weeks to start plugging the shale gas wells at its mothballed Preston New Road site in Lancashire.

Seems @eBay_UK is promoting crime evasion. As for the drivers who buy and apply this to their vehicles... #GullibleIsNotInTheDictionary

Homelessness can be very close. There are many complexities around it and there is not a single answer.

While there is conjecture around the airliner crash, other atrocious actions continue, tagged by the despot that is Putin. We need to remember that he has inflicted abuse and terror on folk. If his lips move, check the facts.

Putin has chosen Christmas Day to strike innocent civilians in Ukraine. Zelenskyy is right, this is inhumane. Our thoughts are with the Ukrainian people. We will stand with them on this day and every day.
