While cycling today, I stopped to let a neighbour cross before turning. He said I had right of way. When I explained that, according to the highway code, everyone _should_ stop for him, he replied "no they shouldn't". Pedestrians really ought to feel more entitled. #motonormativity

Reform literally campaigned on killing people in Wales by wanting to get rid of the 20mph limits. Not one opposition party called them out on it. We wonder why politics in the UK is buggered.

The pattern people in the progressive space must break (I include myself): I support Leader A; all teams except A are evil. A has disappointed me. I am transfering wholesale huge expectations overnight to B. I support Leader B; all teams except B, especially A, are evil. B has disappointed me, etc.

I hope this isn’t true. There are times when it’s more important to put country before party. This is one of them. Burnham’s longstanding commitment to a fairer voting system could transform our democracy & counter the dire threat of a Reform UK government elected on a minority of the vote

Greens suggest they will properly contest byelection in blow to Burnham

Statement follows speculation party would not field candidate in Makerfield or barely fight seat
