With @RichmondPkCycle we've just spoken to @theroyalparks about the changes due on Saturday.
This thread isn't going to answer all the questions, but we'll make a start.

It's a full consultation and trial.
Everything is 'on the table' following the trial, from going back to 2019 and the park looking more like the A3, through to COVID-era absence of through traffic at all.

The trial officially starts on Saturday. In mid-November the consultation will begin, and this will run for around six weeks.
The Parks are committing to consulting park users, residents and stakeholders as widely as possible.

#TacticalVoting is a good plan, and it was promoted heavily it before the 2017 GE. Here are two seats that the #Conservatives still won. In #RichmondPark, where #Labour are never going to win, they took 5773 votes. Zac Goldsmith won with a majority of 45.
In Hastings and Rye, The LibDems, who were never going to win, took 1885 votes. Amber Rudd won by 346 votes. Had the #LibDems and #Labour stood aside appropriately in these two seats, and told its supporters who to support, there would have probably been more favourable results.
My concern is that, like in 2017, the #TacticalVoting message won't reach everybody. It is a shame that at least one of these parties won't entertain any concept of not standing in some constituencies.
