Something the Government want you to forget...
Why did the former Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Finance ask this question? Check out the expressions of the Tories #Reigate #Banstead #localgovernment

A court has ruled that the government's authoritarian ban on Palestine Action was unlawful.
Time to stop criminalising the people protesting a genocide - and start ending the UK's complicity.
A cartoon character says "I want things to be different" and smashes up his home, then says "Oh, no".
UK Reform voters, please pay attention to the following message:
Zack Polanski, "Palantir.. £240 million contract last month"
"That was lobbied by Global Counsel which is Peter Mandelson's lobbying group"
"The idea that a defence company from the US has its fingerprints all over our healthcare system, alongside Peter Mandelson"
SOURCE: DESMOG, BASED ON DONATIONS TO REFORM BETWEEN 2019 AND JUNE 2024 92% of REFORM'S CASH COMES FROM POLLUTERS Green Party Promoted by Chris Williams on behalf of The Green Party, both at PO Box 78066, London SE16 9GQ
Big polluters, climate deniers, and oil and gas interests have donated millions to Reform.
Why? Because they trust them.
But we don't. The Green Party is taking on Reform and their corporate backers - because we know whose interests they serve.
Are you with us?

The political make-up of the council is now:
17 Conservatives
14 Greens
6 Residents’ Association
5 Independents
4 Liberal Democrats
I am looking forward to working with other Green councillors to make our residents’ lives better.”
Green Group leader Cllr Jonathan Essex said: “I’m very pleased to welcome Jenny to the Greens. We have been working closely with her and Mark over the past year since they left the Labour Party.
Cllr Orchard, who left the Labour Party because “they have lost their way and no longer represent my values”, said: “I am delighted to join the Greens as a councillor. After feeling very negative about politics from my previous experiences in the Labour Party I feel like I have hope again.
Cllrs Smith and Orchard were both elected as Labour councillors – in 2023 and 2024 respectively – but resigned from the Labour Party July 2025 to sit as Independents, leaving RBBC with no Labour councillors.
Meanwhile, her fellow Redhill West and Wray Common ward councillor, Cllr Mark Smith, has agreed to work closely with the Green group, while remaining as an Independent.
An Independent councillor on Reigate & Banstead Borough Council has crossed the floor to join the Green Party.
Cllr Jenny Orchard, who represented Redhill West and Wray Common as a Town & Village Independent, will now sit as a Green councillor, increasing the size of the Green group to 14.

Heavy rain = #flooding = road traffic accident risk on Battlebridge Lane in #Merstham I've had it confirmed that Highway Maintenance will be "cleaning the whole system between the two bridges in early March."
Listening to The Riddle album (on vinyl). Great songs, but songs about plastics and saving the whale. Are you an eco wide boy?
