I want to say something to the people with mental health conditions that have got in touch with me worried / panicked about the govt news on possible benefits changes... NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. - The govt has put out a green paper. That is an EARLY STAGE consultation document.…
@MatRix14463751 @SaveOasis @RobertBuckland @Sport_England Moving the plastic pitches to where the hall was doesn't create any 'excess land', it actually represents a reduction in the leisure facilities at the #Swindon #Oasis site. The Council know this, so will be interesting seeing how they attempt to justify or gloss over it.

The Health & Care Bill is back in the Commons tmrw. It divides the NHS into 42 areas led by Integrated Care Boards which - incredibly - private companies will be allowed to sit on. I believe private companies should *never* get a say in how the NHS is run. Pls RT if you do too
Today @RobertBuckland has met the CEO of @Sport_England on our behalf to raise concerns about the loss of the Multi Purpose Hall at the Oasis Leisure Centre that the people of Swindon demand is retained. We will post further details this evening.
@SaveOasis update 29/04/2024 @RobertBuckland meeting with @Sport_England on the #Swindon Oasis Leisure Centre and fight for the Hall.
@SaveOasis @alltheeights Residents & ex-users of the #Oasis are rightly campaigning against the demolition of more than half the facilities & the required parking areas. If anyone reading this has not yet signed and shared, please do so now- chng.it/CjPngSpM
@SaveOasis I hope not, as that will make our council no better than our former council that came to an end last year, that are responsible for our town turning into the country’s largest housing estate
Trussed up - renationalise Thames Water say civil servants or face economic meltdown bit.ly/3UhhqJO but plans still include taxpayers taking over most of its debts leaving investors bearing only 40% of the loss
See, told you. All hail @PrivateEyeNews
See, told you. All hail @PrivateEyeNews
Ah yes, it rained and @thameswater as usual empties the bowels of its sewage system into the nearest river.
Have to say @PrivateEyeNews is absolutely on fire this week. 👏👏👏

@jimrobbins @Redkitetravell1 @SaveOasis There won't be a Hall, because 7C want to squeeze as many flats there. Should be the other way round, rebuild the Oasis in full, then build the flats around it.
Potholes - they really can be filled bit.ly/3UhOe5o one of the poorest councils in England resurfaces every road and pavement. Memo to councillors - it can be done and save you money!

Beg of the end - drastic surgery to cut costs & losses. Times Radio good but TTV never worked. Action on GB News needed/coming too? TALK TV vacates its studios on 26th April & will close at the end of Tuesday 30th April switching to digital YouTube. tvzoneuk.com/post/talktv-di…
On SM - for me Labour def heading in right direction but taken too long to arrive in some areas (Swindon Plan), too much squabbling between operators, & needs more stops in ignored areas. And I disagree with service cuts around #Oasis. @Heidi_Labour @jimrobbins @SaveOasis
Some bad news, Liz… New Private Eye out now!
As I used to advise witnesses appearing before me at the select committee: if you don’t know the answer, just say so. 😬
