Rishi Sunak – the pointy finger PM.
A classic Lib Dem pointy finger picture from Oliver Patrick in Somerset. He gets extra Lib Dem points for the angry expression! They say that imitation is the greatest form of flattery so every Lib Dem councillor in the land … Continue reading

Liverpool should build communities and not just houses
In Liverpool old housing like this will be good for decades to come while we have knocked concrete monstrosities down within years of them being built. We must learn from our past. This week the Liberal Democrats at our Autumn … Continue reading
Encouraging people to cycle and walk more
The living streets stand was the first that I visited at yesterdays ‘Car Free’ event at the Mystery Playground. They were one of the many organisations campaigning to encourage more people to walk and cycle on safer streets. My second … Continue reading
The worst of Liverpool can lead to the best of Liverpool
The amazing Mandy Jamieson who has shown her courage and concern for others since her son was killed at the age of 16 in 2018. One of the nice things about being part of the ‘civic’ life of the city … Continue reading

Short term expedience attacks UK’s foundations
The scene at Huntingdon Hospital where entire ceilings are being kept in place by these struts. Most of the people who read this blog are homeowners or at least on the way through the treadmill of mortgages to become home … Continue reading
“Nobody likes us – we don’t care!”
We seem to have reached the point where potty-mouth politicos are becoming the norm. Don’t they know what they are saying or don’t they care? I know that I am danger of sounding like an old fogey here, possibly because … Continue reading
But what does Richard Kemp think?
