.@MayorofLondon .@newhammayor with Stratford station moving into zone 2 are we missing an opportunity with Maryland,just a stones throw away

[Vik @ViksE15]

@NewhamLondon @John_Gudgin @terrympaul @THINKgovuk In all seriousness, this matter was raised over 5 months ago. I've walked this route 200 times in that period.

@rectripp @terrympaul @mwarne @grayee I think it's a good thing, the more transparency the better.

It's happened again! Corner of Bow St & Leytonstone Rd E15 - Opposite St Francis primary school. When will this land owner be asked to put up safe hoardings?

[Vik @ViksE15]

@MartinSurveyor @terrympaul @NewhamLondon @THINKgovuk Yup, already logged in the Newham report it webpage. Just puzzled as to how something so obviously wrong could be approved.

[Vik @ViksE15]

@MartinSurveyor @terrympaul @NewhamLondon @THINKgovuk I'll have to check on my way home. One side has only a kerbs width to walk on, the other has had the footpath reduced to less than a meter. This led to myself and others walking in the cycle lane.

[Vik @ViksE15]

.@terrympaul .@NewhamLondon @THINKgovuk How have developers been allowed to block 1 footpath completely & narrow the opposing one so much that we have to walk on the road? (Penny Brookes Street, Stratford E15)

Hi, will the @elizabethline run 24 hours at weekends, like the Night Tube? thanks

[Vik @ViksE15]

@seyiakiwowo @ForestGateNorth Thank you for all your hard work on behalf of local residents. #MarylandE15 will miss you. All the best for the future!

Thought as pro- chancellor of 1 univ, governor of another, 2 honorary doctorates from others, honorary fellowship & visiting lecturer at 3 more, I might get interview
I didn’t
Clearly I wasn’t what they were looking for!

What fares freeze? Literally every Oyster cap and travelcard (what most Londoners pay) has gone up exactly as much as all the other fares around the country today. https://t.co/S1oYvGJ0sK

@ZilchUK In practice this is not the best advice. I've experienced people becoming quite aggressive if you 'interfere' in their 'business' (littering). A friend of mine was threatened with violence for confronting someone about this.

[Vik @ViksE15]

@LQcontactus @MartinSurveyor @marylandpoint It has been 16 months since we raised this with L&Q and it's still going on. Will you tell your staff to stop? will you clean up the mess caused?

How many racially sensitive FUBARs can the BBC make in one week? https://t.co/hcQvHz8RF4

@BBCWomansHour Embarrassing mixup of guests. It seems that the BBC are unable to cope with 2 different Asian women in the studio at the same time. #theyalllookthesame

Hang on @bbcnews Shashi Kapoor has died not Amitabh Bachan or Rishi Kapoor, who you've weirdly used to illustrate the story.
