Great speech by Comrade Burnham today, but every time I see him I'm reminded of the descriptive epithet from @tiernandouieb.bsky.social "Andy Burnham- A child's drawing of a man"!

It's both and more. The warding arrangements haven't been finalised yet. At LCC I currently support 7 parish councils for County issues. The area is huge. And the Lincolnshire authority will likely have 106 councillors in the same boat with nowhere to meet. The whole thing's bonkers.

I'm no fan of Reform but £6m for LGR consultants does sound like a waste of money. There is an army of talent, experience and knowledge among Local Government Officers.

Apologies, it is not the Reform-Led LCC Investment Prospectus which talks about the coat. It is the Reform-led Greater Lincolnshire Mayoral Investment Prospectus that has that typo.

Where’s Farage? He’s not been seen in Parliament for weeks, doesn’t hold constituency surgeries, cancels big TV interviews last minute & hasn’t been campaigning in Makerfield. Oh look, there he is!! Popping up to spread more racism & use the tragic death of a young man to draw attention to himself.

80% of Reform's funding comes from people who avoid tax by hiding money offshore. Our idea of true patriotism is to hoard money while contributing nothing towards public services. Just ask Richard Tice.
