👀 Election fever has already spread beyond Westminster. Last week a Lib Dem councillor told HQ that he had tried to order some new Correx boards - the plastic placards used in election campaigns - only to be told the company could not fulfil the order for another month because it would be using all of November to complete a large order for the Labour Party. From today’s weekend long read with @whazell Story 👇 inews.co.uk/news/politics/in…

What is shocking is that the applicant was supplied details of the acoustic report supplied by the residents who had paid an acoustician to provide a report. The applicant then wrote to the planning department stating that the resident’s acoustician wasn’t qualified to do this.

Handing the applicant a summary of the objections so that he could perhaps counter them while everyone else was denied sight of them is not brown envelope territory but conferring favoured status strays in that direction.

16 Tory MP's didn't vote to leave the ECHR today: Stuart Anderson Mr Peter Bedford Saqib Bhatti Sir Geoffrey Clifton-Brown John Cooper Alberto Costa Harriet Cross David Davis Sir Roger Gale Ms Nusrat Ghani Helen Grant Simon Hoare Caroline Nokes Sir Alec Shelbrooke Rishi Sunak Sir Desmond Swayne
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several listed MPs had no vote recorded, but two (Ghani, Nokes) are Deputy Speakers who cannot vote. Others including Hoare were paired. No Conservatives voted against the motion, which lost 309-113. votes.parliament.uk/Votes/Commons/… order-order.com/2026/10/14/sev…

Now I'm retired as a Councillor I can get back to using this account again and get back to normal life. No more piles of papers and meetings to start with.

Two years ago today, Sir Robert Francis KC delivered his Infected Blood compensation framework study to the government. We're still waiting for a government response.

Esther was a wonderful lady. I asked her to become a charity ambassador for me once and she jumped at it. She then spent time convincing me I must be Jewish...(I have a broken fmaily line, but she didn't care). Esther REALLY cared. A stunning performer. mol.im/a/16173543

Unfortunately we spent the entire meeting talking about vegan options for the all-staff retreat, so we're going to have to put solving our budget shortfall in the bike rack.

@ArgosHelpers disgraceful service today from your delivery team. Despite an elderly woman buying a new fridge freezer and paying the fee for the old one to be taken away. Deliverers said no they could nt take and would nt even unpack the new one. Please remedy this !

Being brutally honest, not sure people who celebrated or joked about the death of Charlie Kirk and Anne Widdecombe should be telling anyone how they should respond to the death of Jason Arday.

Such a terrible situation. I was there when they first got together. And they were great together. 🩵
