@limebike @_LimeAID classic dumping of your bikes outside London bridge blocking the entire pavement and crossing - forcing pedestrians into the road. What are wheelchair users and people with pushchairs supposed to do?

@TfL @lb_southwark why are they not banned already?

This is what every council estate could look like if they hadn't been left to rot intentionally

We have fallen so far in 30 years.

We used to be a real country, a real country when any local authority could have cool, wacky shit like this built and it was completely normal.

@SW_Help would be nice if you could make sure your air con works on trains with short formations - your 20:09 Waterloo to Portsmouth is ridiculous

@pauljholmes Do you support councils cutting CCTV to reduce debt, or get into more debt keeping CCTV? your arguments make no sense - the point still stands, risks had to be made after decades of LA underinvestment

[Tom @tomm_robertss]

@pauljholmes Ermm yes, forced to take risks because your party cut their funding for 14 years at the time when local authority budgets needed to be increased.

[Tom @tomm_robertss]

@AaronBastani You literally make no sense? You demand for better public services, yet you don’t want to fund getting the best people for the job?

Local authorities can’t grasp any talent anymore as the pay is shit and you just get villainised by people like you constantly
