Thames Water 💧 Haha spent 15 years and three AMPs justifying a concept of “Totex” which basically involved borrowing money to pay dividends whilst you put plumbers mate around Victorian pipework. My town has been gridlocked this week with at least 4 urgent pipe repairs. Absolute charlatans


Love was in air at Finsbury Park today, with amorous Goldcrests chasing each other around the Leylandii. Here's one, showing the world exactly how he got his name Friends of Finsbury Park Liz Ixer London Bird Club #ThePhotoHour #londonbirds




Summers & Haringey Council bring #exclusion/asb/noise misery/disruption to #FinsburyPark while krankbrother say: ‘We want Krankbrother Finsbury Park Events to be a positive addition to your summer’ Here’s how to make that happen say local residents: stop your noise & ‘GO AWAY’

Came across this thoughtfully-planted area in Finsbury Park: dead- hedge borders & planting for pollinators; done by volunteers of Friends of Finsbury Park #Rewilders group creating habitat for wildlife. So good to see such care & love for our much-beleaguered Park. NB Haringey Council



Hurrah for Brockwell Park MAC campaigners! Parks R4 People not barricaded off all summer for commercial events


SAVE #FinsburyPark: still2 recover frm years of abuse as #concert venue, yet this Grade II listed heritage again 2 be barricaded off for summer months CPRE London @Live Nation UK Emily Uchida Finch @LifeBrockwell David Lammy The Parks and Green Space Network



#FinsburyPark has not recovered frm summer mega festivals’ destruction, & Tough Mudder debacle permitted by Haringey Council #Events Team in 2024. Yet, Live Nation UK barricades to be erected blocking access to playing fields for #park users. pls RT
