For the first time in history, we can proudly show you a DOUBLE German bollarding. This has NEVER been seen before so congratulations to us. #WorldBollardAssociation

@aaron_lubeck Fantastic! Great to see a world-class example from my old uni #HailState And love the street name! “Rue de Grand Fromage”. 🤣🤣

This is student housing. It was built FOR STUDENTS. #cottondistrict #DanCamp #MissState photos Jeff Kirton

remembering a fun afternoon walking the neighbourhood looking for this guy, because we had been told we were staying around the corner… #iykyk

Reform say they stand up for the working class - but they never have. They’ve voted to block the Employment Rights Bill again and again. It’s Labour on the side of workers: creating jobs, ending zero-hours contracts, and protecting workers from unfair dismissal from day one.

Turning Point UK published a video yesterday promoting “The King’s Army”, a group protesting against “immoral culture” while dressed in uniform. This type of activity has been illegal in the UK since the 1930s under legislation brought in to combat fascism.

@Philipjwood @createstreets Except that’s liverpool…

@createstreets If the camera pans to the left, it gets even worse…

It’s depressing how so much new “design” in London totally ignores the evidence on what people like and makes them feel at home. Here’s an array of spreadsheet architecture and an aggressively bland and ugly ground floor, where humane detail, ornament & interest most matters.

V good, clear case made by @instituteforgov Local taxes aren’t scary, Treasury shouldn’t fear them, and if we’re going to do a hotel tax *anyway*, it should be a local tax and not a central one instituteforgovernment.org.uk/comment/rachel…

I worked with Andrew a couple of years ago on something. I was impressed by his intelligence and astuteness. Truly an excellent journalist. Very sad.

@WorldBollard @lb_southwark Glorious

@TPExpressTrains hi. We are freezing on the platform for the 10:24 out of liverpool line street which is now going to be late. Why can’t you let us on the train and keep warm as we wait 40 minutes?

Enjoyable evening in Huyton for the Christmas lights switch on, including an unplanned & fun conversation about activating town centres and high streets! #UrbanNerd #HelloHuyton

A new website, Hire a Co-op, is a guide for hiring co-op services for tech, research, admin, and media needs: hireacoop.tech/en

For her opening presentation as one of our SDG ambassadors for #GlobalGoalsLiverpool we’re hearing about the Amazon rainforest from Sophia Polson It’s part of a week of activities to celebrate the Sustainable Development Goals and promote the city in New York

Oh no, a fincel.

We need more of this. Morally this makes sense, but economically it does too. Poor people can’t participate in the economy. People who work shouldn’t be poor. If we are all richer, then, well, we’re all richer! @guardian @The_TUC theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

@SCP_Hughes Great thread - we have these in Liverpool.

Bins are underground, which is common in continental Europe but mysteriously rare in Britain.

Marne-la-Vallée is a new town just east of Paris. It is connected to Paris by the fast RER rail service.

@SeamasBelfast 👏👏

Very grateful to the people in East Belfast who trusted me with their vote - a big increase in the SDLP vote despite the overwhelming focus on a contest between two status quo parties. No pressure, but the fifth election in a row I’ve stood and increased the SDLP vote 😅🌹☘️🕊️
