@MimiCodd Yes, they will slowly lose their charge. I assume electric cars are the same, although given the size of their battery it will probably take a very long time.

@CraigSMorgan @PHNX_Coyotes @SunDevilHockey Is there a reason Liam Kirk keeps getting scratched? He played well in preseason when he did play and I know he's coming back from injury but he needs to play in order to recover fully.

THREAD: Energy Bill Support Grant. I have just been notified that I will get £67 a month off my energy bills under the govt scheme. For enormous numbers of people this support will be absolutely vital. But it won't be vital for everyone, and that includes me. (PLS RT) 1/

@TheRehn Interesting questions. Although if you write over very old whiteboard marks that can help it come off

@MimiCodd I've been helping at a vaccination centre and the official guidance is you don't need a gap. The only vaccine that does need a gap is the shingles one.

A lot of the people I've talked to on street stalls in West Yorkshire are very interested in PR. They know it will help their views get heard.

[Make Votes Matter @MakeVotesMatter]

Our new polling of the Red Wall shows that it's not just Labour members who want Proportional Representation, it's the voters Keir Starmer wants to win back.

A manifesto commitment to PR will only make Labour more popular with the Red Wall.
