In depressing news the complaint against #AlisonSheridan, #ConservativeParty councillor for #StLoyes #Exeter, has not been upheld. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y0lw54qzyo
Because apparently turning up at least twice to a protest to harangue and threaten women and children seeking asylum in their officially provided accommodation doesn't count as bullying.

If you bank with Nationwide, write it then and let them know how you feel about this. If you don't, write to your bank and congratulate them on not engaging with fascists.
"The leader of #Devon County Council has urged an end to protests outside a hotel housing asylum seekers.
Protesters against the use of the hotel and counter-protesters have been gathering in recent weeks at the site on the edge of #Exeter.
Julian Brazil, Liberal Democrat leader of the council, said people in the hotel, including children, were "some of the most vulnerable people in the world"
I've deleted my #Airbnb account over their sponsorship of the #ReformParty conference.
(Yes I know I should have done this over their listings in occupied West Bank areas or their effect on rents in tourist areas, I haven't used them in years, just never got around to closing the thing.)
Some excellent #LocalJournalism from the #Manchester Mill, tracking down the #FarRight organiser of a local flag campaign and in an astonishing twist discovering he's a former convicted people smuggler.

Why do racist rioters get treated with so much respect?
"One month ago, I marched with 100,000 people at London Trans Pride... But somehow, trans people and their allies are still treated like a fringe minority.
By contrast, there are rarely more than a thousand people at the asylum hotel protests - but parliament and the papers are falling over themselves to respect their complaints. "

I was disgusted to see a couple of zebra crossings and a mini roundabout near my parents had been defaced with red crosses when we popped round to visit them at the weekend.
Today when I dropped by I saw someone had spray painted the crosses white. This is clearly not proper road paint, some anonymous person has taken it up on themselves to make sure no one feels unsafe and unwelcome in our community and well done that person.
In news unlikely to surprise anyone, Councillor Alison Sheridan continues to be an awful person.

Good.
"The post, which Musk deleted after 30 minutes, prompted a spokesperson for the European Commission to say its investigation into #X could take its handling of harmful content related to the recent #Englandriots into account."
