It’s the trailing little finger which ends up hitting somewhere 2000 miles away………

Staff were putting up a Xmas tree in my local garden centre which was half empty as the trees will arrive ‘soon’🙄

Zack got flack for implying he lived in Camden. When he didn’t. It’s about honesty not residence

What matters is honesty.

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
Also all the election material implied he lived in Camden including the final one calling us neighbours

My god. I worked in King’s Cross in the 90s. I especially appreciated stepping over junkies by the post office though as a woman I didn’t get the solicitations male staff got

Yeah. I live in that constituency.

Who was it who walked out on Palestinian issues at the Green Party conference

It’s not but I’m fed up with all the half truths in all those very glossy leaflets
000
ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 05/10/2026
In all the many many leaflets I’ve had to endure from ZP in the last few weeks it’s striking how few of them feature social policies with environment at its core

Not sure one pic shows that or that she can stop all the high profile politicos who have descended on the constituency but nothing I say will change your mind

No sign of any board runner and what would he record? Didn’t ask who we’d vote for

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
I’m not sure they’ve got Door knocking data or not well recorded. The green door knocker here had a desultory conversation and knew nothing about the constituency. Didn’t record anything as far as we could see.

The election stuff they’ve been sending out in Holborn St Pancras is frankly amateur though done up in a very glossy way.

If it smells of dust or nothing use liberally for tasteless food. Similarly if dried herbs smell of dried cut grass

My mother who had loved music hated it as her dementia worsened. Felt like her brain couldn’t keep up with the notes

It’s not credible to say it offered more of the same. What’s this about a new sort of politics? Greens need to grow up and recognise this. By all means say it’s not enough but not that it’s more of the same

That may have been true but there is no way Sagal is in that camp

And you know Sagal is shitebluelabour how?

I’d have thought pressure from Labour mps would be more effective

I’ve got one as well. Hell for those posting through the letterbox. And on such glossy paper it’s probably not recyclable.

Frame factory in Belsize Park are always good. Though might be pricey

It literally tells you on the poster. And yes Savoy

I would write but don’t have an MP to write to til 9/10.

I was hoping it might count as piracy but looks like you have to be intending to steal something or someone

I think it’s about the labour candidate definitely being local. Also no one is making a fuss about Galloway living in Russia with an address in Scotland. It literally doesn’t matter except to the greens

I don’t care where he lives. I care that he’s dishonest about it

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
It’s also dishonest

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
It is. As I originally said

I’ve been canvassed by reform. Five of them. Various ages and ethnicities but very amateur

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
But he is influential and I don’t see how someone who is themselves dishonest has any credibility

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
If that’s the case then aren’t you concerned about polanski’s inability to keep things honest
160
ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 21/09/2026
No idea. That’s not the point.

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
It really annoys me that the green leaflets imply that Polanski lives here. He doesn’t.

One Labour poster. Two green leaflets. One green canvasser. One reform canvasser (actually five people) asked how well they were doing. Shrugged

Pride on the other hand works really well (better?) as a musical

There are also quite a few Somalis who don’t speak Urdu or Hindi (or Bengali for that matter). Plus afghans

Well yes. But who tells them to read it? I think the publicity around road safety is non existent.

ajlowton.bsky.social @ajlowton.bsky.social · 14/09/2026
How would they know? Is this stuff taught anywhere or are they supposed to pick it up along the way

I think the problem for a lot of new hire bike cyclists is that they don’t actually either know the rules or don’t think they apply to cyclists.

Hope he takes less notice of the imperialist crap of land of hope and glory

To be fair it’s quite small constituency area wise

As a constituent I truly hope you’re right
