@GillCoates5 The weeds are out of control, focus on those !!

Erm, ok but how about fixing the potholes and removing all the weeds first?

@Tzenh Completely agree !

Birmingham, the night of the count. Labour’s Jess Phillips is announced the winner on stage for Yardley. In an attempt to get a photo of the candidates on stage, am standing among a throng of men on the counting hall floor supporting the workers party candidate. They boo Jess, cat-call and chant the candidate’s name over and over as if it is a boxing match. They try to drown out her voice. It is ugly and it is shameful. As I extricate myself from the pack I shake my head in anger. There is nothing elegant in this brazen show of misogyny and bullishness. Shabana Mahmood gets the same treatment. Both women show defiance yet overall, it is an unpleasant, unnecessary and degrading experience. Elsewhere in Britain, post-election speeches were demonstrations of grace in defeat, and humility in success. As it should be. We aren’t tribal like America. We aren’t quick to protest like France. Sometimes we might admire the more direct approach of other countries. Yet I love our restraint. The passion is there. Reservoirs of it. But the speeches often follow unwritten protocols that show honour and valour almost to the point that the victor becomes indiscernible. Democracy is something to value and treasure. As Brits, I think we value it, although the disappointing turnout gives cause for concern. Isn’t it a prize that our individual vote counts every bit as much as the Prime Minister? Isn’t that fantastic? The workers party claimed to stand for Palestine. A cause I sympathise with, and one that deserves the attentions of the media. Hyped up and militant at 5am, it was clear that the main aim of the male group was to disabuse others of a respectful election. Particularly the female candidates. Jess shook hands with all candidates after the announcement. All except one. The workers party candidate refused her, which was received with cheers for him and jeers for Jess from his swarm of supporters. Surely a candidate standing on a single-issue platform, to improve conditions for Palestinian people, would appreciate the opportunity to build a bridge with his local MP. He could have used that opportunity to progress the cause. Suffragists fought hard for voting rights just over a hundred years ago. Anyone who values women’s rights should be concerned by activities that seek to block their access to democratic choice. There was overt and covert misogyny in this election. It needs investigating and fixing. If women don’t have voting rights, then we don’t have a democracy. @jessphillips @JaneRockHouse @5050Parliament @fawcettsociety @ShabanaMahmood @birminghamlive

@CathyAH1980 @alisonleary1 @KateBurkeNHS @FlexNHS @NavinaEvans @AmandaPritchard Unbelievable!!

@sw_train So intoxicated man falls off train at Surbiton , guard asks if he is ok . Contacts Welfare officer, has to knock on the door to get her out of the office. She doesn’t speak to the man, just walks off- I assume to get assistance ! Unimpressed with welfare officer!

@LaytonWilliams You are amazing !! Good luck !

No matter what happens tomorrow I'm gonna soak it all up and enjoy every last moment. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who's showed me kindness these last few months. There's been times I've really needed it to spur me on! Hope to go out with a bang 🫶🏾

@krishgm Amazing, Happy Birthday! Thank you for all your work in the NHS!

Happy 90th Birthday Dr Krishnan Guru-Murthy! He's at work today as usual, in the NHS, where he must surely by now be the longest serving Consultant Radiologist on record. He became an NHS doctor when he arrived in the UK in 1962 and was made a consultant in the early 1970s. Here are a few photos of Dad - the most recent I have with my Mum recently and the oldest I have when they got married, and a few in between with my brother and sister. We don't have any from when he was a boy because he was orphaned young and the family lost everything as refugees in the war anyway. He's a remarkable man - and we're all very grateful for him still being around to dispense his wit and kindness to us, his grandchildren and everyone.

@RobbieRinder @Channel4 Fabulous programme!

Overwhelmed by the response .. more than 1.3 million of you tuned in. ‘Never doubt that you can change history. You already have.’ Well done Philippa Langley and the team at Brinkworth. Catch up now at 4 on demand! @Channel4

@dan_sacker @Baddiel So terrible!

There’s nothing like being spat at (or in the direction of) by someone on a bike who says “Free Palestine” as they pass you as you’re walking to your office. I have always worn a kippah (and am proud to do so) so easily identifiable as Jewish. London 2023. Gotta love it.

@GillCoates5 @ElmbridgeBC I’ve read your statement.Clearly the provision of current Elmbridge community services are not sustainable. It’s vital that services should reach the whole community, not just 2%. Collaborative working has to be the way forward.

I’m getting fed up with @ElmbridgeBC being accused of ‘turning its back on the elderly’. Please read this statement elmbridge.gov.uk/news/2023/conn… made months ago. It’s hard to believe it but THIS is what sparked the accusations that have continued for months now and are often personal

@GillCoates5 Well said , Gill!

Just to be 100% clear about this Councillor’s thinking about the Thames Ditton Centre, here’s a thread 🧵: First, the local obsession about costs is misplaced. This is not about saving money, or making the Centre profitable or however you want to present it. Consultants were /
