Chadwick Rd, about 22:40 05/06, had a very friendly man knock on my door saying he was a new neighbour of mine, so nice to meet me etc.


He was about to dive into his story about how he had parked his car somewhere and needed some money to get it out of the garage, but I stopped him short because I recognised him as having come to door with the same story around Christmas 2016. I really remembered the incident in 2016 and told him so, he had given a different house number that time, and it was a large number and I didn't think my street numbers went up that high. At first he said but how could that be me, I'm your new neighbour, but then sheepishly walked off.


Tried to phone 101 non-emergency police, but after 30mins of ringing I gave up and went to bed.


Then get all philosophical about how trust and help between neighbours is so important, and was angry that this guy was degrading that trust.

      Will Starmer join Mandelson in the toast rack?

      There has been a number of achievements, but drowned out due to: Bloody awful comms from the government Some daft decisions and initiatives, then either digging themselves into a hole and/or turning For example the well off should not get winter fuel allowance, benefit needs to be reformed and rich farmers should not get tax breaks, but we now how all that went  Employers national insurance - money has to be raised from somewhere but that is the difficult question The image from the right wing press has now stuck, propagated by traditional and social media. And then some appalling acts of self harm. We of course all know better, but I do wonder about the competence of those advising him.

      When did this whole “elect a govt and then change leaders as we see fit “ notion take hold ? it didn’t help the Tories and it won’t help Labour  (and why do people think they can change leaders, call new elections on a whim, but NEVER EVER talk about changing Brexit)  I dont think starmer is doing a good job. But he was elected. And the volatile electorate wanting short term fixes are part of the reason behind his ultra-cautiousness  Complaining about govt and suggesting change of direction seem fine to me. Demanding a change of leader not so much  that being said, if there was some Labour implosion and someone like Burgon was in some mad scenario made leader, then I think the electorate should be entitled to a general election. Just as it should have happened when Johnson was replaced
