Thanks Alice and Ama for helping out @mickyleng.bsky.social in getting out our Councillor newsletter and @yuanfenyang.bsky.social's leaflet out to residents on Kennet Island today.

It's cheesy but true - we're working for Whitley All Year, Every Year.

I want to make sure that no avenue is left unexplored in my campaign for Reading FC's survival, so today I have written to the Chinese Embassy in London with my fellow Reading MPs, @mattrodda.bsky.social and @oliviabailey.bsky.social, to ask the embassy for their help in contacting the owners.

I went on a Reclaim the Night March this evening, campaigning for women's safety. Before we even got going, a man walked past shouting, "Feminists suck," and we were heckled by boys who appeared to be as young at 12/13. There's a lot still to do. #reclaimthenight #rdguk

Rabbit's clever," said Pooh thoughtfully.
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."
"And he has Brain."
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."
There was a long silence.
"I suppose," said Pooh, "that that's why he never understands anything.”
