A little over a month ago, I interviewed Christine Townsend and Lorraine Francis of the Bristol Greens serving on the Bristol City Council.

In this interview, we discussed how life in a city could be affected by the looming crisis and what the government can do to help.

I decided while editing that there was just too much material to leave on the cutting room floor. For that reason, I split the interview into two parts.

In the first part we published in September, the councillors focused on the cost of living crisis. Now in Part 2 they talk about staying warm this winter and while local councils can provide some help, the national needs to step in with funds.

I hope you enjoy it. Please remember you can subscribe to our YouTube Channel for free. It has all the videos already released plus additional content that can only be found on the channel.
