There has been a lot of talk recently about @MyNottingham and @NottsCC losing the bottle to create meaningful LTNs because of the backlash especially when local elections are close and every vote matters.

I have a car primarily (I bought in lockdown 1) to visit the graves of my parents and brother in-law.
