Fresh fruit and veg galore. No shortages of staff. Fuel @ €1.68. All is good in the EU, affected by the same Covid pandemic and same Ukraine invasion. UK politicians and Brexit voters need to fess up that domestic issues are #Brexit related and deliver their solution.

If the Tories have achieved one thing, it’s galvanising people to get out and vote. In 20 years, I’ve never seen my polling station so busy. If you haven’t yet, Vote #Election2024 and #FuckTheTories

Everyone knows Labour are going to win the election, but if you’re feeling like there’s no point in voting as the outcome is a foregone conclusion, I’d like to draw your attention to something really radical that is on offer tomorrow: 1/8

@BeeNetwork can you advise what ‘pending’ means please on this OurPass card? It usually transitions to something like ‘waiting to pickup’

Farmer Henry Ward, "I literally can't believe it. I stood on the bridge with the Chairman of the Environment Agency, the Minister for Flooding, NFU president, looking at 2,000 acres of land with 2 meters of water on it. It didn't even cross my mind that I wouldn't be eligible for this money" Only the Conservative party could have a policy, a plan, that denies farmers whose fields are flooded, from flooding compensation 🤷‍♂️ If you're a farmer, stop voting Conservative. They lied over Brexit, the trade deals with Australia/NZ are harm your business, and when you're flooded, you're excluded from compensation

@Slesh_85 Taken as a referendum, the 2019 election gave a clear majority to 2nd referendum parties, in spite of Corbyn's unpopularity and Liar in his pomp. And of course, Brexiters were running scared of a 2nd referendum because they knew they would lose.

Every time a Low Traffic Neighbourhood is delivered, the following things happen: ☑️ Businesses that have been failing for years - check their accounts on Companies House - claim the LTN has ruined them in a matter of weeks. ☑️ Someone allegedly misses a funeral/birthday/appointment because they can’t rat run down your road. ☑️ Fake emergency service workers start calling Nick Ferrari to falsely claim the LTN is costing lives. ☑️ A video appears of a local fire crew ‘stuck’ behind an LTN filter they approved in advance. ☑️ Someone complains their child - who they squirrelled into the school in the expensive catchment before buying a cheaper house out of catchment - has been made late for school by the LTN. ☑️ Some ossified local union branch Secretary or Branch Labour Party full of bricks and mortar millionaire pensioners passes a motion claiming ‘LTNs are anti-working class’, even though working class neighbourhoods have the fewest cars but the highest levels of pollution. ☑️ The local rag starts printing unevidenced sob stories from people who claim the LTN is stopping them from delivering chest freezers once a week to their housebound nan. ☑️ There’s a petition to the local Council falsely claiming LTNs are ‘creating crime hotspots’, even though the evidence is clear that they substantially reduce crime. ☑️ The craven local MP starts distancing themselves from the LTN only to take credit for it in a few years when they realise that their constituents do not want to live on rat runs. It’s literally the same, every time.

@BobFromAccounts The counter argument is usually ‘I only have 10mins out of my hectic day to do the school run’ The counter-counter argument is that it’s likely quicker on a bike! If you’re swinging by a school, en-route, to pick up kids, I can understand. If you purposely drive though…

@SiManM20 @domcycling The instruction to cyclists is to ‘dismount’, not ‘continue cycling, but use the shared carriageway’.

Can anyone recommend any decent #password manager alternatives to @dashlane? They were once the gold standard but nothing syncs, their auth doesn’t work on iPad and family sharing doesn’t work… not LastPass though. Ta.

@WalkRideGM @ManCityCouncil The contractors are responsible but the council are accountable. The contractors must be on a day rate… imagine walking away from that thinking ‘job well done’.

@WalkRideGM Blame lies, as ever, with feckless @ManCityCouncil who continually hide faceless & unaccountable, too scared to hold their contractors to account. 6 yrs ago, W Didsbury was herringbone paved. A utility co dug it up within weeks. MCC assured the ‘temp’ tarmac would be replaced..

Chorlton Cycleway already promised the upgrades to Chorlton high street that are being consulted on AGAIN by Manchester City Council This was something first consulted on SIX years ago Can we really wait another six years for them to finally deliver what was promised?

Cyclops Dave@davelostdave

🤯 Is this a consultation on retrofitting in all of the urban realm details that Manchester Highways refused to consider / omitted / value engineered from the Chorlton Cycleway in the first place? 🤯 @prosocialplace @RantyHighwayman @evefrancisholt @MShiltonGodwin
