Delighted and honoured to be reselected by members of the local Chelmsford @Conservatives Association as their candidate for the next UK General Election. 🗳️
@marksandspencer @bp_plc At the BP Garage, Colchester Road, Springfield, Chelmsford. Obviously it’s cleared now but it was shocking. As the local MP I would kindly ask that you do not let this happen again.
7/7 … during our litter pick we also came across old road signs that have been abandoned in hedges, ditches & verges. Local Wombles find & report these often, but they are rarely collected. @essexhighways I will be writing to ask if you will help clear these up. https://t.co/i8FWK9VNKS
6/7 …a particular nuisance are the blue plastic gloves handed out free at the @sainsburys garage. These blow all over the place, into hedges, up trees etc. I know people appreciate a glove when pouring petrol but @sainsburys could you look at supplying biodegradable ones? … https://t.co/6qGoS93ioV
5/7 … here are five HUGE bags of litter we collected from @sainsburys - mostly from the small grassed area between the store door & the bus stop. To encourage people not to drop litter, I will be writing to the boss of Sainsbury’s and @ChelmsCouncil to ask for some bins… https://t.co/owp4aO1GkQ
4/7. The car park at @sainsburys was a horrific mess. I couldn’t see any litter bins in the car park - just one by the store door. So people buy a snack & then throw the wrappings behind the hedge. Please put in some bins & keep your land clean! Other supermarkets do this… https://t.co/pgr1bIDSEo
3/7 … here are some of the 14 bags of rubbish we collected from outside @bp_plc and @marksandspencer - surely these big companies could do better! … https://t.co/csoGYk6nkq
2/7 I was shocked by the state of the bank outside the @bp_plc garage. It was covered in litter from the garage’s @marksandspencer shop 😱 We cleared up the bank, but huge companies like this should be so embarrassed. Please BP/M&S put in some bins and keep the area tidy! https://t.co/XymzsvxI1o
1/7. Here is A Rubbish Thread… Today I joined the Chelmsford “Litter Wombles” - a group of volunteers who regularly collect litter in Chelmsford. They have over 700 group followers. 📣‼️Some very big companies have been helping to make a very big mess… https://t.co/DBUXrd3zpM
The International Parliamentary Network for Education campaigns for the right to education across the world. As Global Co-Chair of @IPNEducation I utterly condemn the arrest of @matiullahwesa founder of @PenPath1 and girls’ and women’s education right defender in Afghanistan.
