@PippaCrerar So on one hand @RachelReevesMP will bow to the concerns and needs of non-doms but not listen to the concerns of pensioners over the winter fuel allowance. Shocking that this is the election promise out of all other promises that a Labour government is prepared to break

@campbellclaret Only one team was creating chances in second half and it wasn’t yours, I’d be depressed if I was you. Not rejoicing gamesmanship

Great exhibition in #hackneymuseum history of borough in pictures and special focus on estate regeneration

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

@Knowlesy83 So how does he explain professional cyclists that eat their weight in calories every day but stay stick thin?

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

@Turkish_hackney Completely agree, historic high street should have some funds spent on it. Notice Tottenham High street has had lottery funding, Townscape heritage funding twice since early 2000s. Hackney good at getting funds for green open spaces, but should invest in our shopping areas too

The stupidity and of transport engineers in Islington. First provide bike racks and then penalise a cyclist who uses it for obstruction of pavement

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

@DaveHill What are the figures for Hackney? Living in borough it seems that more people are cycling due to LTNs and different demographics than your usual Mamils

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

Typical of a minister who’s PM skived off 5 COBRA meetings at height of pandemic

[Trades Union Congress @The_TUC]

139 teachers sadly lost their lives during the pandemic.

Teaching unions fought to keep teachers and pupils safe.

And now we see what this government thought of those efforts.

Can anyone tell me what the Hackney Liberal Democrat’s email is? Nothing on their website and their Twitter account doesn’t allow direct message

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

@hackney_cycling @Hackneycyclist Are there any studies that show that filtered streets encourage under represented groups?

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

@VincentStops As a Hackney resident I’m disappointed by Vincent Stops view. It’s important that people feel safe cycling and segregated cycle lanes provide that reassurance.

[Simon Slater @simondd119]

@Hackneycyclist Hackney should have installed a separated superhighway down A10 instead that excuse of a superquietway that’s CS1
