My departure from here is imminent. If you'd like to keep in touch, find me at @davebackwell.bsky.social. I'm looking forward to catching up x
I'm managing an orderly retreat from this place in the face of unrelenting enemy fire. Please find and follow me @davebackwell on BlueSky.

I'll correct myself. Here's the best: youtube.com/watch?v=C7V3-EIA…
I've been quite poorly for the last few weeks. Much better now, glad to say. But the unexpected bonus has been that I've watched a LOT of Olympic sport, and I've been blown away by the athleticism, strength, will to win and joyous feel-good camaraderie. Citius, Altius, Fortius

We saw a fact sheet like this doing the rounds so we thought we’d make our own.
North Somerset deserves better.
Vote for change, vote @Sadik4Pharmacy on 4 July.

The tactical vote sites show only Labour’s @Sadik4Pharmacy can beat Liam Fox in North Somerset.
A vote for the Lib Dems or the Greens will let Liam Fox back in for another 5 years.
Every vote counts so get out there on July 4th and make history. #VoteLabour!
If ever there was an audience I wish I'd been in, it's this one :-)
So last night a kid was in the audience waving a sign saying ‘LET ME PLAY GUITAR WITH YOU’…so I thought ‘let’s get him on stage’…..and then something special happened! HE’S 10 YEARS OLD!!!! 🤯🤯🤯 watch here 👇👇👇

Under Liam Fox and the Tories, the average cost of a house in North Somerset has risen from 7.2 to 9.5x average earnings and the number of social housing lets has fallen by 10%.
1,700 North Somerset households are living in unsuitable accommodation.

Only Labour can beat the Tories in North Somerset.
Labour has come second here in the last three elections and is now neck-and-neck with Liam Fox in the polls.
It's clear: a vote for the Lib Dems or Greens — no matter what they tell you — is a vote to risk 5 more years of Fox.
Join me in voting tactically to Stop The Tories in North Somerset, and together we'll make sure our votes are actually earned next time. Smart voters have political power. stopthetories.vote/

Tonight resident in #FlaxBourton echoed the same things that I have heard from the doorsteps of the rest of #NorthSomerset
Tory cuts to our public services are damaging, Tory lies are embarrassing and it is time for a Labour Government to bring change for our country. – at Flax Bourton, England

North Somerset is too close to call between Labour’s @Sadik4Pharmacy and the Tories’ Liam Fox.
Lib Dems and Greens can’t win here. Voting for them risks letting Fox hold on for another 5 years.
North Somerset deserves and can get so much better if tactical voters back Sadik.
