GREEN PLEDGE WATCH

Green Party
Bristol Greens celebrate the opportunity to break the promises they made to people

More burning wreckage from a crash landing Green election pledge.

Before last year’s election, the line was that the Greens would cancel, within six months, the lease to the evangelical nutters promoting gay conversion therapy at Eagle House in Knowle West and restore it as a youth centre.

A letter from Green leader “Tory” Tony Dyer now announces that there are no legal grounds for cancelling this lease because, presumably, using a council building for unlawful gay conversion therapy activities is fine? Instead, we get the building back when the lease expires in May 2026.

It then will be demolished and the land sold for housing because the evangelical nutters have broken the lease by not doing repairs on the building and letting it fall into disrepair.

Some sort of consultation on some sort of vague community building idea will happen after the demolition but getting anything in place before 2030 seems unlikely.

Great news for young people in Knowle.

How many pledges have Bristol Green Party broken in a year?

Rehouse Barton House residents – LIE
Yew Tree Farm to be protected – LIE
Reopen Public Loos – LIE
SEND spying investigation – LIE

Have the Greens lied to you? Let us know.

TORY TONY’S U-TURN WATCH

Tory Tony U Yurn

Green council boss, “Tory” Tony Dyer, is proving to be highly flexible in power. Before the election, Tory Tony was an enthusiastic supporter of south Bristol’s Yew Tree Farm. The nature reserve and city’s only working farm was under threat from a council plan to expand South Bristol Cemetery into it.

Cometh the moment, cometh the man and now Tory Tony has concluded that expanding the cemetery onto the farm is a great idea. He’s even brokered his own ‘compromise’ between himselves to only use the land for a dirty great drainage pond.

Tory Tony was also an enthusiastic supporter of the victims of the SEND spying scandal. Supporting public demand for a proper investigation into senior council bosses’ surveillance of parents of children with SEND. To score a few political points over Labour, he even helpfully leaked an unredacted version of the council’s internal whitewash report to SEND victims so they could stir the pot for him.

Now, there’s no sign of any investigation from Tory Tony and he’s blocking legal action by the victims against the council by refusing to respond to a pre-action letter issued to his council months ago.

What will the courts make of his clueless dickheadery?
