@lyngardner@ThePleasance Have you managed to catch The Long Run, Lyn? It’s partly about me so I feel I can promote it. It’s on at Beneath in The Courtyard at 14:00. Take your hanky! Thank you.
@VisitLichfield Why no mention of the #LichfieldFestival when one of their shows this week, Homebird, is all about Lichfield? Written by a local who IS going to the Edinburgh Fringe for the whole month of August!
This is Frank and he has had a coffee stand at the top of the steps at Bethnal Green tube for as long as I can remember.
When the new restaurant/coffee shop next door opened along with another high street outlet opening across the street, Frank suddenly found that his license from the council had been revoked and he was chucked off his stand.
I believe it was to make way for these new shops to take his regular custom. They didn’t need him in the way of gaining maximum profit... so Frank was gone.
Well the locals were having none of it and a petition started demanding his return.
How dare they do this to him.
How dare these people smash his business and leave him with nothing.
After a lot of pressure the council backed down and Frank had his licence and pitch returned to him but sadly by that time Frank had sold his equipment to feed his family and try to survive.
So the good people of Bethnal Green started crowdfunding and here’s the result... Frank back in business on his old pitch with brand new equipment and even a little hut now to shelter him from the rain... Brilliant!!
He is truly the happiest man in East London and it’s wonderful to see.
It really does show that if we all stick together, stand up to them and just say no... the little guy can win.
If you’re in Bethnal Green come and have a coffee with this lovely man. 🧡
Michael Fabricant is forecast to beat Labour by just 30 votes! He CAN be defeated but it will require TACTICAL VOTING. To show him the door #LibDem 🟨 voters in #Lichfield & #Burntwood WILL need to lend their votes to #UKLabour 🟥.
Please Like and Retweet to spread the word.
Apparently the good people of Lichfield would vote for a donkey if it was wearing a blue rosette, so in order to defeat Michael Fabricant on July 4th I'm going to need many many more followers...please please please Retweet this and ask YOUR followers to give ME a follow ❤️
@RevRichardColes This could save your life. I was diagnosed with Bowel Cancer in March 2022. After awful treatment I’ve played nearly 3 hours of tennis today. A test well worth doing I’d say!
Rishi Sunak claimed multiple times on BBC #r4today that the voters have voted for the Rwanda Scheme many times.
In reality we haven't been given a single chance to vote on it.
So I will give you one here...
RT, if it is expensive, hateful trash.
Like, if you want it.
Our last two shows at @newdiorama with a few tickets still left to snap up! Promise you don’t want to miss this, it’s a warm hug of a show led by the incredible @KatieArnstein and @becm42
