A massive 'thank you' to everyone that came to the Coventry Citizens' Panel today - looking forward to writing the event report! #GreaterCov
Have to say, residents involved seem far from universally positive about the prospect of joining Birmingham in the @WestMids_CA #GreaterCov
How about a permanent citizens' drop in / visitor centre in the old Council House? #lovecov #GreaterCov
Coventry should not be a pawn on Birmingham's chess board. #greaterCov
Finishing with a speech on Coventry’s future (incl plans for City of Culture 2021) by @Cllr_KevinMaton #GreaterCov pic.twitter.com/6gXRpUuput- How about a permanent citizens' drop in / visitor centre in the old Council House? #lovecov #GreaterCov
#GreaterCov looks to be getting some good points put forward!- Improving and regenerating the city centre has been a reoccurring theme throughout all of today’s discussions #GreaterCov
- “Coventry needs to stop changing brand every 5 or 10 years and stick to one message to be effective” #GreaterCov
- “If Coventry does join the West Midlands then we need to be able to trust the council to be strong and represent us” #GreaterCov
- “We understand that there is no quick fix or sudden solution but we want to know our opinions are actually being listened to” #GreaterCov
I want more people at #greaterCov talking about proposed Mental Health Commission. Benefits to Coventry residents
I think the #WMCA would be better and more democratic as a London style Assembly with elected Assembly Members #greatercov- Don't put all your economic eggs in one basket #GreaterCov
- Emotionally connect the suburbs to the city centre - foster shared ownership of our city #GreaterCov
- We want to be and feel safe #GreaterCov
- And we want a proper river! #GreaterCov
- How does "City of Festivals" sound? #GreaterCov
- Combined authority should be 'practical not political' says @millar_sheila #greaterCov
- Just been talking on Webcast about Combined Authority. Protecting our Greenbelt is important issue amongst others. #greaterCov
- @aimeec110 I think that is a point to put forward but then we'd have another tier of elected Govt. An option in longer term #greatercov
- “We understand that there is no quick fix or sudden solution but we want to know our opinions are actually being listened to” #GreaterCov
- “I think that the council is having its arm twisted by Westminster and it is having too much say in the decision” #GreaterCov
- (3/3) “Create a sense of identity in each part of the city then feed that into the city centre to shape Coventry as a whole” #GreaterCov
- (2/3) “we need to look at things like integrating all sections of society and creating mixed communities” #GreaterCov
