Me listening to privileged people explaining why, actually, they can't see themselves voting Labour - when the reason they can think like this is, of course, that it makes little difference to their comfortable lives
Great. Now I'm stuck with a councillor who supported LTNs going in & made false promises about taking them out, instead of @michele_paule who has fought for Rose Hill residents over this for years but was honest about the limits of city council powers to change them.
@CorinCole @Ind_Ox_Alliance I've heard that funders of the populist Independent Oxford Alliance include KBF supporters and big Oxford landlords seeking to overturn local regulations ensuring decent standards for renters. Any info out there to confirm/deny? #localelections
Except that it was Trish Elphinstone that did this- Henwood is again claiming credit for something he had nothing to do with.
David Henwood Independent Oxford Alliance (IOA) candidate for Rosehill & Iffley campaigned to remove the Wands that have caused chaos at the junction of Rosehill, Church Cowley Road & Henley Ave. Oxford County Council are removing due to make the junction safer for all

Had leaflet from independent candidate for Oxford City Council elections promising to take out LTNs. Doesn't seem to know that County Council decides this, not the City. Nor that Andrew Gant who is responsible for LTN decisions is LibDem not Labour. Hardly inspires confidence.
@JohnEdwards33 It's not that clever a fake. Very obvious AI
"If women had greater power in society a lot of the violence they face would dissipate. It's everywhere and it's getting worse." Great interview by @FScott5050 with @centenaryaction convenor @HelenPankhurst bit.ly/45W7vhQ
Deeply disturbed by the news that a girl held in a YOI was pinned down and forcibly stripped by a group of male prison guards. Under the Tories, there is no plan for managing girls in youth custody. They are failing in their duty of care. shorturl.at/wCUV3
23 February 2024: Paramjit Gosal-Gill, 40, suffered serious injuries at a property in Beaconsfield. Paul Gill, 39, has been charged with murder.
2 March 2024: Wendy Francis, 61, died at an address in Worcester. Another woman was found with serious injuries and was taken to hospital. Damien Homer, 50, has been charged with murder and attempted murder.
So this is the guy putting leaflets through my door saying he'll get rid of #LTNs if I vote him in as a City Councillor (doesn't seem to know only County Councillors can do that) because he's so on our side. Except when he is campaigning for the LTNs. Which he still is in places.
Good, now do Liz Truss
💥Lee Anderson suspended A spokesperson for Chief Whip Simon Hart said: "Following his refusal to apologise for comments made yesterday, the Chief Whip has suspended the Conservative whip from Lee Anderson MP."
So why are you and Truss backing Trump? And have you given the money back from your Russian oligarch tennis partners?
On this grim second anniversary of Putin’s invasion I am honoured to be here in Ukraine. With their indomitable courage I have no doubt that the Ukrainians will win and expel Putin’s forces - provided we give them the military, political and economic help that they need.
Rishi Sunak's statement on hatred in politics fails to mention anti-Muslim hatred at all. His deputy today refused to condemn Lee Anderson’s racist and Islamophobic remarks. These are just the two most recent examples of enabling anti-Muslim hatred in the Conservative party.
Rishi Sunak isn’t just tolerating extreme views, he’s offering those who spout them a pay rise. Lee Anderson already had a terrible track record when the Tories chose to pay him an extra £10k. Utter weakness from a Prime Minister who simply can’t govern. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
Lee Anderson’s comments are unambiguously racist and Islamophobic. Rishi Sunak needs to immediately remove the whip. If he is too weak, then people will take their own view of the modern Conservative Party.
Conservative MP Lee Anderson tells GB News that he thinks Sadiq Khan has "given our capital city away" to Islamists, who are "his mates". "Islamists have got control of Khan and they’ve got control of London," he says.
Am furious that LibDems are surreptitiously offering ANPR-only LTNs with passes for ALL Headington residents - we got an email about it. But Andrew Gant told residents of Littlemore and Rose Hill that they couldn't have this because it cost too much. Feathering their voting nests
Simon here randomly mobilising CSA to score points over LTNs = a new low
Roj here seems to think that Jimmy Savile, sexual predator of children, is a lesser abuse of power than infrastructure that protects children. What kind of person actually thinks that way? #oxfordltn #cowleyltn
@EmilyKerr36 It's designed to keep motorbikes off the playing field. This is a problem in Rose Hill. You need a bit more local knowledge of council estates
