Cazenove (Hackney) council by-election result: CON: 53.8% (+47.4) LAB: 31.0% (-13.1) GRN: 12.8% (+1.0) LDEM: 2.4% (-35.2) Votes cast: 3,018 Conservative GAIN from Labour. medium.com/britainelects/…
Yet another brilliant podcast from @tortoise … about how celebs and PR firms are co-opting the documentary format and broadcasters are failing to flag the links between PR firms and production companies. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the…
