Budget provides additional £100 mn for cycling and walking infrastructure in 2025-26. This is NOT the "unprecedented level of funding" that transport secretary @LouHaigh told @laura_laker was coming. Meanwhile, motorists get yet another fuel duty freeze. Climate change anyone?

It'll shock you to hear that Reform didn't want me attending their conference either. My ticket also cancelled. Free speech Farage strikes again.

I am gutted to report that I will not be with my gang at Glasto -- my body has let me down in spite of my best efforts. But the rest of the band will still be providing a spectacular set, so if you're at Glasto, please go along and support them. You won't regret it.

BREAKING: Am being leaked all the campaign director morning notes from Tory HQ now … here is today’s …
we will be fielding C Heaton-Harris on the media this morning. You will know he is not standing but as with M Gove we think this helps us. These departing MPs are able to put a bit of distance from the campaign and when asked to comment eg on betting scandals, unravelling tax lies and the like, they can say it is not a matter for them. But they can then pivot to our line of the day which is that Starmer will take UK back into EU. We need to be careful however, as there is a danger this will make Starmer more popular. So we need to issue the warning gently, especially in Lib Dem areas. Please don’t leak but the Chancellor called the PM yesterday furious at his “Brexit is great”’tweet (overnight focus groups suggest JH has a point but let’s double down to show confidence in our strategy. Tomorrow Sir Gavin Williamson will be main message carrier. Unfortunately most of current cabinet now feel they are in either lost cause seats or marginals so we have to respect their refusal to go out and defend the national campaign. But as you know Gav is a great salesman and we are hoping he can do for Rishi what he once did for fireplaces. No new scandals overnight apart from us using public money to set up party website for candidates. But thankfully there are so many bigger scandals nobody is noticing. And remember … it is no longer about stopping the boats but stopping the votes. STOP THE VOTES. AVOID THE SUPERDEFEAT WE KNOW WE DESERVE. Onwards !!!

How’s this for an idea? £1-2 per night tourist tax. It worked in Manchester, Chester is considering it. Think what more #southampton might do for its citizens :-)

You emailed me 5 minutes ago. It's very difficult to get officer involvement right now as we are in the pre-election period. I'll get back to you. Correction on "so called climate assembly" it was the real deal, orchestrated by the University of Southampton and Involve.
I've put my poor sound quality recording on SoundCloud
It is audible when @savage1958
A Southampton City Council "led" on this so called Climate Assembly states the Assembly shall be facilitated to ..."hold Councillors feet to fire..." I've emailed him since & nothing twice

I've been waiting for this moment and it has finally happened.
I got a paper review back saying I need to familiarise myself more with the works of Heejung Chung and that my work should engage more with her work.

Bit tired of "ooh bad journalists didn't cover the Post Office scandal". It's been covered for years: there have been two Panoramas, coverage of the court cases going back years, Radio 4 has done a series, Private Eye has been all over it, Computer Weekly has been on it for years
