Colchester is showing that the 🏳️‍🌈 flag can - and should - stand alongside the 🇬🇧 flag.

It’s a simple but powerful reminder that inclusion and national identity are not in conflict- because love will always win.❤️

That’s why SOLE have launched a petition calling on Essex County Council to rethink its decision

I've written to the cabinet member for libraries at Essex County Council about Reform's decision to remove displays for LGBTQ+ 🏳️‍🌈 and Black History month.

Local councillors have no right to decide what they think is best to display in our libraries, nor should they be denying people putting up information about support services for groups. This screams of censorship because Reform disagree with it.

Whilst Reform UK may not wish to welcome the LGBTQ+ community to Essex County Council buildings, we believe Essex is stronger, kinder, and more vibrant because of its community.

Today and every day, we stand proudly with them.

Happy Pride Month 🙂 🏳️‍🌈 To echo Chris Bryant MP - “We have always needed Pride” and “we need it now.”

Start as you mean to go. They don’t know. 😡

‼️One of Essex Reform’s first big moves is to scrap the county’s net zero strategy - despite openly admitting they “don’t know” whether climate change is man made.

🗣️The confidence to dismiss decades of research while offering no alternative plan is reckless and dangerous. Essex’s climate strategy wasn’t just about emissions - it covered flooding, coastal erosion, water shortages and heat resilience already affecting local communities.

🙃In Harris’ (leader) own patch, Freeport East has major job strands directly tied to CLEAN ENERGY, and that’s not speculation; it’s built into previous published strategies and investment plans.

Back from the first County Council meeting as Reform took control.

Almost 50 Reform councillors there and the majority did not even speak about their area.

I made sure I spoke about what local people are concerned about.

It's fair to say it is going to be an interesting year.
