I SWITCH my recommendation from Lib Dems to LABOUR in North Somerset and St Austell and Newquay, so my recommendations line up with the voting tools on those
New videos for all of them will, time permitting, be up later (I am on a work trip to Prague, so could be tricky)
However the essence is the same:
- Tactical voting works!
- Most constituencies are 2 way marginals, not complex 3 way ones like Cities of London and Westminster and Kensington

Earlier @Felyxorez pointed me to this in Le Monde about bosses of railway companies demanding "un nouveau pacte ferroviaire européen" 👇 lemonde.fr/economie/artic…
It's a summary of the main piece in Le Journal du Dimanche (no paywall if you accept ads)👇 lejdd.fr/Economie/sncf-…
First, the content
Honestly it's 🤷♂️
A load of we're green, we're the good guys, bla bla. Heard it all before. No concrete demands, no concrete plans
"Pour que le train soit plus attractif, nous nous engageons à améliorer l’expérience client : de la réservation à l’information voyageur en temps réel grâce au numérique, ainsi que pour l’offre ferroviaire internationale, y compris de nuit."
Starting at 14:00 CET the Berlin Senat is releasing the results of its night trains study at a webinar - all the details here - inc. dial in link: pro-bahn-berlin.de/dateien/presse…
2️⃣ "EU's refusal in 2020 to negotiate an SPS equivalence process" - EU made it clear all along that this was a non-starter. You cannot keep rolling this one out over and over - you stated in 2021 "Britain has just become a fully independent country again"
Dreary grey weekends in Berlin mean more wanderlust... I've now planned all the bike legs of my #CrossBorderRail trip for this summer - where there is no train, or infrastructure doesn't exist any more, I will cycle rather than take the train
Komoot is much better for bike trip planning than Google, so all the routes are listed here in Komoot 👇 komoot.de/user/189774755…
The good news: I've found a way to do Kulata 🇧🇬 - Sidirokastro 🇬🇷 by bike instead of needing a taxi!
The less good news: Suwalki 🇵🇱 - Marijampolė 🇱🇹 is a complete pain. Even bus schedules here are horrible (v early morning), and were I to cycle it's more than 80km... Do I want to risk that on a Birdy folding bike on rural lanes?
Essentially, on reflection, it strikes me as implausible that there cannot be something new when the report comes out - either *in* the report, or through some further leak
And version 1.0.0 of the diagram did not cover that adequately
Diagram re-worked on that
Some additional thinking about how the 54 MPs might be composed helped here too
As ever: thoughtful feedback is *so very welcome* - it helps these diagrams improve!
