Housing, music. Pedestrian. Used to be Labour but behaviour of local councillors changed that. The worst neoliberals are those that pretend otherwise.

I did not vote Labour today for the first time in my life. This made me feel sad and also angry with the people responsible for the destruction of Enfield Labour. I am a traditional Labour supporter but the Labour party in Enfield no longer genuinely represents Labour values.

A hazy shade of winter. Early morning sun trying to break through the mist, as a bird soars above a moored boat on the Thames in Chiswick, with only me to see it.

You know what will help the transition to renewables more? Actually transitioning to renewables and not focussing first on keeping fossil fuel use going with a shortsighted and extremely expensive scheme to spend public money on

Carbon capture and storage will play a critical role in the energy transition, helping our industries to face the future.
We are determined to make the UK a global leader in this new technology.
For good jobs, energy security and climate action.

‘Mile End’, new drawing 2024. When I first saw this shop-front in 1980s, next to Guardian Angels Church, I passed it by as of no interest; now time has added an interesting patina @thegentleauthor @GrimArtGroup @ahistoryinart @PaintingsLondon

The reality of carbon capture has been laid bare by recent announcements - it's massively expensive and only potentially realistic for select large sites.
Why on earth did Enfields councillors believe this would be installed at the new Edmonton incinerator?
They were warned!
Councillors in Enfield were warned about this and many other issues with the expanded incinerator in 2022 and Ergin Erbil, now leader, said it would be resolved by carbon capture technology by 2030.
So what happened to that then?

Keir Starmer says that the Conservatives have produced a ‘Jeremy Corbyn style manifesto’. The Labour leader has clearly picked up some tricks from the Tory Party, mainly how to throw former colleagues under the bus

Mixed emotions. Delighted to be rid of someone who I think is narcissistic, damaging and truly unpleasant - and largely responsible for me stopping being a lifelong Labour voter - but also feel really very sorry for the poor people of Barking.

Labour's new Barking candidate confirmed bully who tried 'undue influence' on scrutiny chair. Nesil Caliskan bullied a fellow councillor and tried to manipulate chair of Enfield council scrutiny committee - and more...

Russel knows full well the golf course was accessible to the public as a shared space. I have no interest in golf whatsoever but I do quite like the truth
23 May 2024
Weirdly no mention of the fact that the area of land being taken over by Spurs was actually a golf course and not a “park” at all. 80% of the existing golf course will be finally be made accessible to the public, with significant tree planting. What’s not to like?
