Yes friends, all being well I will be stalling out again at Harefield Market tomorrow - for the third and final time before my sad departure.
And also clearing out my unit at the Phoenix.
And yet I still believe I shall return, to start again, one day.
For sometimes it is only the believing of such foolish things that allows you to survive at all.

"Conspiracy theories and disinformation mar UK local election"
This refers to the #Uxbridge by-election, and warns of similar during next year's general election.

Uxbridge unconvinced Ulez led to Tory byelection win

UK politics.
What Uxbridge does (and doesn’t) tell us about ULEZ and Labour’s strategy. Both Labour and the Tories blame Sadiq Khan’s anti-pollution strategy. But are they right about what voters want? Green policy that saves lives not as much of a liability as made out. #uxbridge #sadiqkhan #keirstarmer #labourparty #ulez

Cute how Starmer is quick to blame the Mayor of London for his #Uxbridge defeat —for trying to improve London's air by extending a policy first introduced by the Conservatives— rather than consider how a week of #SirKidStarver bad press over his two child benefits cap might have kept enough Labour-leaning voters at home..
'Time to ditch the green shit,' says Sir Keir. 'Fucking tree huggers!'
Looking at these byelection results, it seems to me that the 'swing' is down to Tory-right-or-wrong voters staying at home. They're still there, folks, grinding their teeth over the Daily Mail at the breakfast table.
What stands out for me is the more than 10% Green vote in Somerton and Frome, with zero campaigning, and a tacit endorsement of tactical voting for the LibDems.

The #Uxbridge #byelection result is a cue for every #Tory candidate at the next general election to get a photo of them frowning next to some car control measure in their constituency.

A couple years ago Snoop Dogg visited my friends' dispensary Caroline's #Cannabis in #Uxbridge #Massachusetts
I took pictures of him with the first 100 customers that day, and a few days later they all came back and picked up physical printed copies of themselves with Snoop.
That was such a cool day, and a cool thing for a #pot shop to do for their customers.
I was on the other side of the camera, but his security guy snapped a quick one of us with my phone.

That's one in ten. Surely a concerted effort could make that happen?

Dear People of #Uxbridge and #South Ruislip, you don’t have to wait for a general election. All 7,036 of you have to do is organise and sign a petition, calling for the recall of @BorisJohnson for misconduct in public office. Then we have a by-election. Do it for your country! https://twitter.com/thattimwalker/status/1530287117720604672
