02 Dec 20 (Doc) This was a two and a half hour skype meeting. This covers the last part of the meeting.Councillors, Council Solicitor and planning rep were all on earlier in the meeting along with some residents and reps of Wandon Park. Lib Dem Leader Cllr David Franks in this part queries why the concerns of Beds police have not been addressed by Vauxhall Homes, a fully own council company. The proposed new houses would leave the park less safe for children as they are in front of current houses so would be unobserved. The same is true of the proposed replacement land in Herts - it is isolated and children would be less safe. Cllr Gilbert Campbell raised the issue of building on a green field site. The Council reps agreed that it was against the town plan. | 14:40 | Doreen Steinberg | 1080p MPEG-4 | Request | Youtube - Doreen Steinberg |

The Service was joyful and included outside events, such as at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, Sir Tom Moore and film of those who had lost their sons and daughters and those who have helped in the Coronavirus emergency.

| 05 Nov 20 | Whipsnade Zoo, Bedfordshire, 3 November 2020 day before closing for a month due to Coronavirus (Doc) Whipsnade Zoo, Beds on Nov 3rd 2020 before closing, along with most businesses, leisure and hospitality venues in England for a month. This follows a 4 month closure earlier in 2020 in an attempt to bring infection rate of Coronavirus down. As the infection rate has risen, Boris Johnson, UK Prime Minister, in accordance with advice from the advisors who do not all agree, has imposed another month's restrictions from Nov 5. It is an unknown virus and people should not blame Boris. It is very sad that Whipsnade has had to close as they did so much to put in measures to keep people safe. There are huge open spaces both in and around Zoo and it is a shame that they could not just have been told to close inside areas. It is important that people are able to access fresh air for their mental and physical health. It is hard to see how a month's lockdown can succeed when 4 months had no long term effect. It might be necessary to learn to live with the virus. In the meantime we all have to be positive, try to follow the rules and do all we can help others.

| 27 Sep 20 | Vauxhall Way, Luton.Roadworks associated with Airport expansion 26 September 2020 (Doc) This film covers a period of months showing the devastation caused by these roadworks which have been ongoing for about 8 months. The Government gave Luton Council £1.1 million pounds for this work and they were determined to spend this money despite a passionate objection to it voiced by Lib Dem Leader, David Franks at the Overview and Scrutiny Cmmttee 19.12.2019 pointing out the futiity ot the plan . The whole process is futile and you will see how dangerous these works are - not even temporary road markings to show give way at huge roundabouts or warn drivers of unmarked pedestrian crossings. Many trees were felled at the height of the nesting season. The contracters worked through the Cornaviron Pandemic with no social distancing. The Luton Mayor and 2 other councillors at the height of the pandemic attended a party without masks or social distancing, which made headlines in the National Press. They are still councillors! Some officers blame Robin Porter, Chief Exec, for saying the matter should be invesigated with speed and transparency, You would think any council officer would agree with this idea but this is Luton, not known for its democracy. Unanswered racist complaint against Cllr Dave Tarylor. - their response was to make him mayor a few weeks later. | 10:22 | Doreen Steinberg | 1080p MPEG-4 | Request | Youtube - Doreen Steinberg |

Many hundreds of trees would need to be felled and the loss of habitat and damage to the environment would be enormous.At present Luton Council has run out of money but they still plan to go ahead so the cessation of felling is only temporary, However it is the first time they have amended their plans on snything despite pleas from residents,Friends of the Earth, XR, Green Party, Friends of Wigmore Park or Save Vauxhall Way trees. | 13:22 | Doreen Steinberg | 1080p MPEG-4 | Request | Youtube - Doreen Steinberg |

| 16 Aug 20 | Three Star Coaches Luton Trip to Southend 16.8.2020 - All safety measures in place for Coronavirus (Doc) Three Star Coaches, Luton, along with all other coach companies, were off the road for 4 months due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Their first trip was on Aug l 2020 to Bournemouth. Everyone was thrilled to be able to go to the sea and also to support Three Star Coaches and their staff. Everything was done for passengers' safety - It is a little disconcerting having a gun pointed at your head for the temp check - everyone wore masks, there was a sanitiser at the entrance to the coach , passengers' names were on seats and notices telling people to leave certain seats empty to ensure social distancing. This trip to Southend was on Aug 16. It was the first cool day for weeks but that made it all the more enjoyable. Southend beach was spotless and had been raked. Seagulls flew around diving for food. Tomassi's Cafe had its usual lovely food - the whole front was open so it was cool. The Pier and the train were well patronised but everyone kept the social distancing rule.The Beach and Terrace Cafe have delicious hot doughnuts. It was a lovely day - the forecast rain did not arrive until we were due back on coach and then it continued all night so we were very lucky. Looking forward to more day trips and a return to normality. The Cornavirus will pass - just be brave and careful. | 03:51 | Doreen Steinberg | 1080p MPEG-4 | Request | Youtube - Doreen Steinberg |

| 18 Jul 20 | Luton Full Council Meeting Emergency Budget 14.7.20 on Skype PART 1 (Doc) This meeting was to explain what cuts were necessary. Cllr Andy Malcolm, for High Town, Chair of Luton London Aiport, which the Council owns, and lead Cllr for Finance for past 8 years presented the budget. Luton Council has borrowed many millions of pounds for the Airport over many years. However the whole tone of this meeting was to lay all the blame for their financial crisis at the door of our Government. They sent a petition for 10,000 to Parliament last week asking for millions and complain because they did not get it. Our Government has done more than any other in the world with their furlough scheme, loans to business and support to councils. In this meeting questions about loans to the airport were left unanswered. This meeting was only discovered by chance - no notice on facebook groups.Last week the Zoom meeting for Let's Talk Wigmore was recorded but Council said they did not have a copy. Several residents asked that future meetings should be recorded in the interests of transparency. So far the Council has failed to provide film of this meeting! So this is my film taken from laptop durng meeting. In this film you will see the arrogant indifference to residents' needs and great rudeness towards Cll David Franks, Lib Dem Leader when he questioned Airport loans. | 86:36 | Doreen Steinberg | 1080p MPEG-4 | Request | Youtube - Doreen Steinberg |
| 12 July 20 | Faces of Luton 2020 Style Faces of Luton 2020 Style HSBS 3D for 3DTV. Signs of the times - Since March 2020, people have taken to wearing face coverings (commonly called masks) as a precautionary measure against the Corona virus (covid-19). The masks cover the nose and mouth and reduce infectious droplets being passed to/from others. Previously such masks were mainly seen in the far east, worn by those with infections - which I considered to be a considerate gesture. Shoppers in George Street, Luton are shown wearing masks which are becoming accepted as a social norm, and are required at indoor public places, such as shops, where "social distancing" (keeping 2 metres apart) cannot be maintained.

Letters were delivered to Luton Town Hall and the two Luton Labour MP's. A speaker pointed out that Luton has borrowed so much money for the airport and the DART transport system despite saying that they are up to their eyes in debt and going to the Government for a loan. They blame everything on the Coronavirus and take no responsibility for the debt or their mismanagement of finances. Now they threaten big cuts to services.

Entrance is blocked by nettles and the area inside is covered in huge weeds - the sticky ball shaped seeds could get into dogs' ears and do stick to clothes. In wet weather residents' clothes will be soaked, if they can make their way through this jungle. Strange since Luton Parks Dept mow roundabouts to the ground when they could at least let buttercups grow and provide food for birds. They also recently rotavated a large part of the central reservation on the A505 when the wild flowers they had planted in 2019 had reseeded and grown to a foot high.

In 2020 they were rotavated when they had reseeded themselves to about a foot high leaving just dust. Also shown is the area in Crawley Green Rd which was planted some years ago when many Luton roundabouts were set with wild flowers and were a delight. These have survived due to angle of area.

Friends of the Earth, Friends of Wigmore Park and Extinction Rebellion have been trying to preserve this wonderful park but their arguments and pleas are ignored by Luton Council which shows no commonsense, concern for the environment, or residents' health, which will be damaged by increased pollution, congestion and lack of open space.
