Shall we buy the Telegraph? Think of the shits and giggles...
Going through the annual process of calling virgin media after my contract expires, to ask them to halve the bill they've just doubled, to then be told that they can't, to then tell them that I'm leaving, to then have my bill halved. I enjoy the ritual.
How does your council compare? I've spent longer than I care to mention on a data project analysing the performance of councils With local elections on Thursday, use this tool to find out how your lot are doing and don't vote for them if they're crap! thetimes.co.uk/article/worst-…
I spent a week as a Deliveroo rider. And learnt a lot. First up, Deliveroo likes to claim you should earn at least the minimum wage of £11.44 while working. Me? I worked for 22hrs 50mins, rode 105 miles, did 27 drop offs and earned £120.38. That works out at £5.28 an hour🧵

@andrewellson Anyone who has anything to do with the city of Nottingham could have saved you some effort. The council somehow manages to get worse in every election cycle.
This is interesting and shows what one instinctively feels to be right: that councils with scant / ineffective opposition perform badly, like @lb_southwark & @lambeth_council (who find themselves very low down the list). @AirCroxted @DulwichCleanAir

Well done, Barnet. Residents deserve better. thetimes.co.uk/article/8a3193…
@andrewellson Well done for this! Sadly @EnfieldCouncil in top 5% of Worst Performing Councils 😞 as always the most deprived are worst hit by this Council. @Nesil_Caliskan failing our most vulnerable residents for doomed @MeridianWater vanity project for which the Master Plan remains secret.
@chakrabortty @MerylORourke Yes. Woeful here with @EnfieldCouncil pushing homeless (many thru rent rises) way out of London while using public money to build locally unaffordable housing in Edmonton, one of top 10 most deprived areas in country & selling off council housing stock to private developers.

Tony Travers: “It is also easy to see that having a council where there is little or no opposition, or little chance of a change in administration, could lead to bad outcomes.” Food for thought @LambethLabour?

@LornaBlane @GreenPartyScott @TheGreenParty ... Lambeth's LTNs have been big, clumsily-implemented schemes producing large numbers of winners and losers. They're inherently divisive - and that's not a good thing.
@LornaBlane @GreenPartyScott @TheGreenParty I've mostly voted Green since 2010 and have delivered their leaflets. I'm not convinced the party understands LTNs, in particular that not all traffic dissipates and that much of it may be displaced, moving pollution with it and possibly producing a net increase in pollution...
