01 May 2024 Lovely to drop in to @bartonpeveril college today for Q&A with the Politics Society. Brilliant to talk about why I got into politics and take questions from this superb group of students on transport, cost of living, green energy, & sewage dumping.
Thanks for the warm welcome! https://twitter.com/darrenpaffey/status/1785662570625388817/photo/1 [Source]
23 Oct 2023 Fascinating and helpful visit to @CEMEX_UK Marine’s HQ on the River Itchen last week.
We discussed the aggregates industry, Cemex’s plans to decarbonise the business, and opportunities to engaged more with Southampton’s schools to promote careers in our marine city. https://twitter.com/darrenpaffey/status/1716381481206005795/photo/1 [Source]
18 Nov 2021 Southampton Conservatives told us they don't like terms such as climate 'crisis' or 'catastrophe' as it might upset some people. 🤔
Tories want to quibble over what we call it, Labour just wants to get on and deal with it.

17 Nov 2021 In the wake of #COP26 Labour put forward this motion today asking the Tory council to be ambitious about tackling climate change in the city.
The “can do” Tories said “no can do”. It’s “climate cacophony”, apparently 🤦🏼♂️ #ClimateActionNow https://twitter.com/darrenpaffey/status/1461058314599645194/photo/1 [Source]
13 Aug 2021 This is now the case in Tory-controlled #Southampton, where their actions fly in the face of the climate and air pollution crisis, not to mention their own government’s policies!
