REALITY CHECK, KEIR! The majority of people voting today will be voting AGAINST the Tories not FOR Labour. The sad thing is they’d really love to be voting FOR #Labour, but you’re ignoring what they want. They want Brexit undone, they want free movement, they want PR, they want…
I don't understand the logic whereby people support 20mph on residential roads to reduce pedestrian deaths but not on arterial or main roads where most pedestrian deaths happen. Is someone's life suddenly cheaper on a busier road? What does that tell us about our values?

If you pause to actually think about this it is patently ridiculous to presume every citizen of a European country has an intense desire to relocate permanently to the UK. Do people not travel and see how great other parts of Europe are? I wish people would think.
@nickreeves9876 It always was bonkers to assume that 450 million EU citizens would decide to leave their countries empty and live in the UK instead (and that no Brits would ever want to go the other way)
I still don't know which one of this pair to vote for. Because neither of them has included active travel in any of their pronouncements on NE transport. Which is a shame when it is so key , and other metro mayors are promising £60 million a year chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-eas…
