Thank you to all the wonderful Green volunteers who supported our election campaign action days in Seasalter over the weekend. Lovely weather and very worthwhile to inform residents about the 1 May Kent County Council election and listen to local concerns.

Latest EA performance report on water companies found serious pollution incidents increased in 2023 and 90% were caused by four water companies including Southern Water. Total pollution incidents increased to 2,174 – the 2nd consecutive annual increase and most since 2019. When will this stop?

Thanks to everyone who worked so hard at the Green Party litter pick at Long Rock Nature Area in Swalecliffe, on Sunday, led by local Councillor, Keith Bothwell.

This sunny Sunday 12 Jan why not do something fun and really positive for your local Kent environment at the Green Party Community litterpick. Long Rock nature area from 11am to 12 noon. Organised by Swalecliffe Green councillor, Keith Bothwell. Meet at corner of Swalecliffe Court Drive CT5 2NX.

Tomorrow, Conservative councillors in Maidstone will cancel this year's KCC elections, stay in power without a mandate and abolish Canterbury City Council and other local councils across Kent. This is the Labour government's plan to improve local democracy. Please join our protest.

Did you know the destruction of local democracy in Whitstable and Canterbury is well underway? Forthcoming local elections in Kent may be cancelled and your local council replaced with giant unitary authorities. Please join us in opposing this expensive nonsense. www.change.org/p/no-to-the-...

Greens are NOT the servants of billionaires, powerful lobbyists or corporate interests at local or national level.

Merry Keirmas… and a Hapless New Year! The new Private Eye is out now

This government and regulators have broken the law by being too lenient on water companies that spill sewage, the UK government's environment watchdog has found. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The Labour government's new planning framework, "fails to tackle the housing crisis head on and instead panders yet further to the interests of private developers whose main interest is lining their pockets," Green Party co-leader and MP Adrian Ramsay

www.bbc.com/news/article... Is this is the future for Kent under this Labour government? Thousands of luxury executive homes that do nothing to address the urgent local need for social housing and small, affordable homes.

Well done to the Save Brooklands Farm campaign who turned out in force to meet @dailyexpressnews.bsky.social reporter who also spoke with Green campaigner @StuartHeaver about excessive luxury housing development in #whitstable.

Why not help out one of the really good local environmental projects in Whitstable next weekend? All welcome at Columbia Park, 27 Columbia Ave, Whitstable CT5 4EH.

Green Party campaigners joined the wonderful people at Friends of Prospect Field for a fun morning of site maintenance at this important public green space and wildlife habitat on Sat. Why not join them for their next session of Sat 8 Feb? The complimentary mince pies are delicious.

How do you feel about more pollution in Swalecliffe Brook, probably from run off from housing development sites, and more raw sewage discharges into local bathing waters courtesy of Southern Water?

Not glamorous work but these local Green Party councillors and activists are scrutinising how Canterbury City Council intends spending your money in the annual budget.

Very excited to be on Blue Sky. Please follow us for news on Green campaigns, events and issues in Canterbury, Whitstable and Herne Bay.
