#Darlington grandad Keith Wilson has published a book about his mountain climbing exploits as part of his campaign to raise awareness of Parkinson's Disease. It was launched with a book-signing at the top of Roseberry Topping. Full story on my page in Saturday's @TheNorthernEcho
@SarahWoods66 Even as a member it's the same experience. How to get a freebie as a 'celeb' is what I wonder! I'd recommend Harrogate which is well organised and has plenty of spaces to just sit and soak it up. With live music too.
@lukeakehurst It's the standard right wing trope making it about poor parenting. Without such provision, there are many folk who would not be able to hold down a job.
Farage isn’t a statesman, he’s an OnlyFans creator for Brexit nostalgia, but it's just him whispering “take back control” for £80 a pop.
I mean seriously, if grifting were an Olympic sport, he wouldn’t just win gold, he’d launch a crowdfunding campaign to upgrade it to platinum.
@thfc10010@Cliffinkent@louderry I expect folks voted thinking councillors would do the job they were elected to do. This behaviour lowers turnout further and encourages " they're all the same" comments
No matter how you vote in the #LocalElections, Labour will hold power nationally for 3 years with a big majority, that won’t change
What WILL change is your local council’s Competence, Accountability & the Quality of Your Public Services
That choice is yours
Your vote matters
Surely you are better than this Richard.
1. You know there are no "rules" on setting 20mph limits only "guidance".
2. You know that 80% of child road casualties are NOT when travelling to/from school.
3. You know that in Wales urban/village road casualties are down by 26%.
4. You know that setting 20mph back to "only outside schools" will kill and injure people.
5. You know it would increase insurance premiums.
20mph isn't "anti-motorist" any more than seat-belts, air-bags or traffic lights, but you attitude seems to be anti-life and livability in our communities.
