🌳 TREES STILL PROTECTED 🌳 This brave tree protector has been up the tree for 4 hours now, making sure they aren’t cut down whilst conversations with the council happen today. Supporters are beginning to show up! Head to Wellingborough, London Road, if you can! 💚

@paulpowlesland @NNorthantsC The country is watching you! Do the right thing here. Respect your own rules. TPO’s are there for a reason. If you continue with this, watch the rest of the TPO protected trees go. Actions have consequences.

@XRNorthampton @paulpowlesland You’re in the same tree as yesterday? Somewhat embarrassing for the police, no? 💚 Thank you for stopping the trees from being felled while the meeting with @NNorthantsC and @paulpowlesland happens 👏💚👏

@paulpowlesland Good Luck! It is so easy to destroy - much harder to create. More tyranny of the car. Keep up the good work!

@paulpowlesland Good on you. Trees are needed along roads as temperature rises and shade is vital. Plus the obvious of providing oxygen and habitats

@paulpowlesland Good man!!! I wish I lived nearer, and was 30 years younger. Sending strenth, support and mental cups of tea your way! (Mental as in imaginery, not insane - just to clarify!)

@paulpowlesland I don’t support Extinction Rebellion - but I definitely support trees! We should never destroy mature trees!

@paulpowlesland 1 tree provides oxygen for 4 people!! Plus habitat for dozens if not hundreds of species. It shouldn't be allowed!
