Traksy and Realtimetrains.co.uk are the ones I know of for GB; not sure for other countries.
There is a service which connects cities*, has a capacity of up to 1700 per train, and which isn't run by a brand** running diesel services under wires. *is a tram from Manchester to Salford intercity? **brand rather than operator, trying to exclude Southern's Uckfield and Marshlink services.
Does the capital have to be somewhere which is unambiguously in the UK rather than just somewhere the UK does foreign relations and defence for?
I know that they're aiming for a time which works for New Zealanders, but 23:00 on the day before a holiday (or midnight) seems a rather unappealing time for a webinar.
I think this is roughly the current map of MPs calling for Starmer's resignation (red = publicly called for him to go; dark grey = non-Labour).
Have the percentages here been done incorrectly (or, at least, out of line with the normal method for multi-member ward / votes), or did Labour win a Barking and Dagenham ward with 11%?
Arbroath and Broughty Ferry seems like an SNP hold. I wonder how well the Greens would do there.
Fun to watch LDs and Conservatives swapping places in councillor numbers (of those up and counted this year so far, not in total). (Since switched back... For now)
I know that this is a very long way down the list of problems caused by the war in Iran. I'm also rather annoyed that a journey I've made by train a dozen times is one I might have to do by plane, and one – that example – reportedly likely to face disruption.
The map of London successive Tory and Reform mayoral candidates think they're running on
I'd be interested in seeing the results of this in a proper poll (the balls are age-coloured; I don't know which is which, apart from guessing black being youngest from environment).
Reform have sent a leaflet to an area with no local elections this year*, with no mention of the party which runs the district and county council. *makes more sense if they can afford tonnes, so voters say they don't only hear from them at elections
Actually, Cambridgeshire is too simple; merge Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire's local government in a way which doesn't involve putting anything in Hertfordshire in any existing Cambridgeshire structures.
(Also, I think this is the first time I've seen "we know you might like your MP but they're not related to this")
