The green walls in question are not ecologically friendly. Literally, Greenwashing. They require artificial fertilising and watering ( I thought we were all supposed to be conserving water! ). If you want green, just follow Sheffield University and have ivy. Green roofs are an entire different proposition and are planted with drought resistant serums etc and rely entirely on rainwater. No fertiliser necessary. SCC should not give permission for any more of these vanity projects.
I must stop watching day time telly. I was flicking through the channels and there was the new Chancellor of the Exchequer holding a press conference. I listened and my mind went back to the days of Stat Trek Voyager and the Borg Collective. "The interest of the Collective must come before the interest of the individual" said 2 of 411. "Growth can only be achieved by pouring concrete over your useless ponds and their disgusting natterjack toads." "But I live in the constituency of 298 of 411 and developers want to build houses on my local butterfly reserve." shouted one of the press pack. "Butterflies are for the birds" snorted 2 of 411. "We must have growth. New construction is vital." "What about the NIMBYs who don't want their local flower meadow covered in concrete?" shouted another hack. "Construction is vital. Resistance is futile" spat back 2 of 411. "But won't some of your own council's object?" squeaked another hack." "Resistance is futile. Those who resist will be absorbed" intoned 2 of 411." I switched off and went for a lie down. I really must stop watching day time telly.
With regard to proportional voting, we have a parliamentary system based on individual MPs elected to represent their particular constituencies. The number of MPs affiliated to a particular party determines the government. The proportion of the national vote gained by a party is irrelevant.
Dance. Turku. Regretfully, Sheffield left the European Healthy Cities movement which highlights the 'upstream' determinants of health and well-being, though DPH Greg Fell is onside.

Still not managed sedums!
