Ellie Leiper David Higgs Democratic participation is ongoing anyway. Most of WRB were at a scrutiny panel today doing the everyday graft of improving our city. People who only turn up to object to everything are usually a bit late to the party.

Been to the Guildhall to register our X for the Police and Crime Commissioner.

Off to Dads before my volunteer afternoon. 12 years after giving up 🚬 he still needs his nicotine spray 🤣

Did you know there are 2 Rwanda schemes not 1?

RW media are desperate not to mention it. (To their credit the BBC have several times.)

Here's the difference. I've labelled the 2 schemes 'Uncontroversial' and 'Evil'.

Yesterday's deportation was under the Uncontroversial scheme.

Our polling stations are open today from 7am-10pm for the Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Commissioner election. Please remember to take accepted photo ID. Details of the election are here avonpccelection.org.uk

Quite the endorsement ….

Sending the first 300 migrants to Rwanda costs £1.8m each. To put that in context, school funding is around £7,600 per child per year. So the cost of sending one migrant to Rwanda would get 234 children education for a year. Is that a good use of money?

You might need a reminder of this country's better nature today. I really did. Well here it is.
