oday, August 1, we have a new mayor. It’s the one Rianne and I bot rooted for. It’s a good start for a new month.
This coming week we’ll be rather busy with leisurely affairs and Rianne celebrates her mother’s birthday.

e’ll soon know who replaces Burnham for Manchester
“Five candidates have now been eliminated from the contest,” as reported, “Geraldine Coggins (Green Party), Phil Eckersley (Conservative Party), Marcus Farmer (Independent), Richard Kilpatrick (Liberal Democrats) and Marlon West (Restore Britain).”
Results likely out soon: “The way that it’s going to work is that for anybody who didn’t vote for Sian Astley or Bev Craig as their first choice, counters will now start looking at who they put as their second choice and those votes will be reallocated. It means that both candidates may pick up some more votes as second preferences.”
Percentage turnout: less than 25%
Very low.
can see election information, but results aren’t known yet, not even preliminary estimates (no “exit polls”).
It does look like gravity is being shifted away from London:
omorrow is the day to vote here. There is some certain lack of excitement and door-knocking political hacks aren’t coming around this week. Even the spam seems to have been reduced somewhat?
Have LibDem run out of (or low on) spam budget? They’re always good at talking a lot, but not actually doing anything. Maybe they recognise they no longer stand a chance of winning in this area.
can now say, as it is public information, that tomorrow morning a judgment will be issued.
understand that tomorrow there will be a decision issued by the High Court pertaining to a 2025 case which involves me. I will get a chance to write about it some time tomorrow or later this week.
