Only one local by-election tonight - Con defence in Surrey. Should be a safe Con hold.
Apart from the City of London one which is already declared.
I'd expect the LibDems to improve on their showing last time; both the Tory County Council and District Council aren't popular. There has been snow on the ground for much of the day and turnout is likely l be very low; it'll be a postal vote election which probably favours the Tories.
My brother and Katie Price live in the ward. Separately.
I see the West Country has ground to a halt this evening.
I have actually been to points West: Exeter et al. Very pretty part of the world. Incredibly difficult to get to and not well served by things like buses. It's not resilient in harsh weather.
Every time there's an amber warning of snow for the area the A30 is closed by the snow. Why don't people learn?
Presumably because it happens once a year and it's cheaper for everyone to take the economic hit. Not nice to be caught out by it, though.
I think it's beyond tedious that the UK doesn't cope with normal winter weather. Chicago suburban trains seem to be running even now
I'd only read the version where SPOILER ALERT he survives. This one's better, not least because you can tell ANOTHER SPOILER the dog knows the chap's an idiot.

It's now just two months until the UK leaves the EU and the Netherlands' largest onion producer says she fears Brexit could leave her produce stuck in transit. The current border-free frictionless trade zone means British supermarkets can order crates of onions from the Netherlands in the morning and sell them within 24 hours.

So Rutte needs to go to Brussels and get the backstop removed so the commons can vote for the WDA and the Dutch onion seller can continue to enjoy tariff and customs free access to the UK market. Or she can stand in the middle of her fields and watch the crop rot and believe in EU solidarity.

Perhaps Rutte could just go to Westminster and get them to vote for the deal.

Maybe, but he seems to be a lot smarter than the pro-EU people in the UK.
EU plugs are inferior and yet they still rigidly stick with them regardless...is that the message?
You're asking for a complete rewiring of Europe before the end of March.... is that the message ?
When I lived in Brussels as a kid there was a British expat who lived near to us. He had had his entire house rewired with UK plugs. My father always referred to him as "Drunk Eric". He also used to attack his wife quite frequently. Bit of a character.
It seems to me that English winters especially can be hard on structures as they often hover around zero degrees Fahrenheit, so causing damage by much freezing and thawing.
I know someone who attended a Chicago area school even once or twice when the temperature reached minus 30 degrees Fahrenheit.
Personally I prefer heat, as we had this last Summer.
The spread between high and low determines the amount of contraction and expansion.
