How is it that one of the lifts at the Woolwich Foot Tunnel has been out of service since August 2022?

Labour’s strategy seems to be trying to scare progressive voters into voting tactically to keep out Reform UK. This failed in Thursday’s by-election in Shooters Hill ward (Greenwich) where the Greens gained the ward on a huge swing.

I've loved getting to know #EllesmerePort in my recent work, especially running activities from Theatre Porto's ice cream van.
