As 2017's Carbuncle Cup winner is announced, remembering @UniofOxford's blight on Port Meadow was 2013 runner-up, and most nominated ever.
Another campaign front page. Four years on @OxfordCity and @UniofOxford finally take some action. Lipstick on a pig, but best of a bad job.
Oxford City Council rolls over for the University; accepts proposal to do little more than paint and some trees.
A morning sending personal thank you emails to the 60+ campaign contributors over Xmas. We're in it together, and to win!

All is explained. Construction firm that built these specialised in out-of-town retail parks. They've just gone bust.
Letter in @oxfordtimes rails at the "conspicuously muted" @OxPresTrust and its suggestion blocks should stay.
Another @oxfordtimes front page. Preposterous idea from @OxPresTrust to wait 30 years. Dismal record on this issue.
Prof Louise Richardson appointed next VC @UniofOxford. First woman in 785 years. Here's hoping for new approach to community engagement.
"Heads would have rolled long ago". @OxfordCity head of planning retires; Port Meadow fiasco his defining legacy. m.oxfordtimes.co.uk/news/129…
"Planning is an unforgiving business". @OxfordCity planning head retires with Port Meadow fiasco his enduring legacy.
Perhaps Mervyn King helped @UniofOxford with calculation of why they say they can't afford to fix #castlemill despite having £2bn in bank!
