I oppose charging people to drive in Cambridge. Wealthy people will be able to carry on driving regardless, poorer people will have their freedom curtailed. #GCPMakingConnections A congestion charge is not a fair tax, it hits people if they can afford it or not. Income taxes are a fairer way of funding public spending. #GCPMakingConnections

Cllrs @CamCitCo (and @SouthCambs) have recently considered plans for the area around the North Cambridge station, I’m going to pull out some of the interesting bits in this thread. democracy.cambridge.gov.uk/mgAi.aspx?ID=2… Map showing the area covered by the North East Area Action P @camcitco @SouthCambs What councillors have been doing recently is preemptively considering material which is due to go out for consultation. This is good practice as it saves people spending time commenting on things which councillors don’t consider viable options. democracy.cambridge.gov.uk/mgAi.aspx?ID=2…

I’m on King’s Parade in Cambridge again for the fourth day running as councillors have again said they are due to close the new anti-terror barrier today. The road is very busy with cyclists at the moment. King’s Parade, Cambridge The reason for delay starting the barrier’s operation was given as new signs and markings being required. I can’t see any new signs and markings today.
