The Tweets of the Week in the London Borough of Barnet 28/11/2015

It's been a while, TBH the local Twitterai has been a tad dull of late. This week though, it's been quality. So here is the pick of the bunch.

1. We start with a pair of tweets from one of our more sensible Conservative Councillors and former Mayor Hugh Rayner

Hugh Rayner ‏@50barnet Nov 26

Syria (1) Why can't UK support campaign in other ways than bombing - like providing targeting information. Why do we have to get embroiled?

1. Hugh Rayner ‏@50barnet Nov 26

   Syria (2) And money saved can be used to protect lives at home. Bombing without an exit strategy achieves nothing. Remain to be convinced!

2. It is always nice to see a Burnt Oak lad bigging up their hood. Big Norm from Burnt Oak simply loves it.

Hey @BarnetCouncil you rake in c.£600,000 a year in the Bunns Lane Car Park. So why do you leave it in a state?

Sam Wilson ‏@ConflictArchaeo Nov 24

Today's star find in the hunt for Barnet battlefield, was this rather lovely silver shilling of James I!  

 

10. We were on the @RobertElms show this week promoting our Save London Music campaign!

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Some real crackers there methinks! But I've saved the best till last! Our old pal Brian Coleman tells Lib Dem Leader Tim Farron that Serious Politicians don't do "Have I Got News For You". Is this a subtle dig at Boris or has Brian just got a bad memory? I've heard Brian has a new career giving advice to fledging politicians on how to get on in politics. I wonder if "don't beat women in the High St" is high on the list?

@aidanrad @timfarron @haveigotnews looked embarrassed and light weight . Serious Politicians don't do this show
