        Point of order: with no rubberised surface around the equipment, playground will be mud bath in 10minutes - cheap job or what?

        There is rubberised matting with grass and microclover planted. The park is great, the Conservatives not so much.

        Good news then. How do they cut the grass under that climbing net teepee?

        I'm not sure. Maybe some kind of short growing variety? I guess we'll find out!

      The general election is a week away. You've offered no plan to protect Oxford from Brexit. This is the kind of tweet you're going with?

      Are you saying they bought the kit because they're tories? Playgrounds shouldn't be a political football.

      £320k 'investment' doesn't really replace the £6 million cuts that your party made closing Oxfordshire children's centers though, does it?

      Shame central government isn't investing in our children's education to compliment their play.

      How about the school lunches though? Going to back the PM's policy on this? Given your slavish adherence to party it wouldn't be a surprise.
