I didn't miss it. I made a mental note of it and looked at the context of the thread where it seemed you were being mischievous or disingenuous with your line of questioning. 👍

I asked a couple of questions .

I believe that CAZ are a Government directive so whatever council  is in charge it has to follow legislation.

Can I have my green bin back for free ?

I want to hear NO MORE winging and whining about CAZ zones, low traffic zones and city of sanctuary, etc. The people of Sheffield have clearly spoken. Bring it all on.

What not even whinging about the lack of free parking in town, how Leeds and Manchester are better than Sheffield, and the rot started when they pulled down the old Castle Market.

I agree with you . For instance I got told to look for something on the internet the other day , you must have missed it . 

To be fair to the other poster, you do seem to think that a search engine is you posting questions on SF and expecting others to furnish you with an answer. Maybe the name of the old search engine askjeeves.com gave you unrealistic expectations.

Great write-up in The Tribune on the results. Whilst overall it wasn’t totally unexpected, there were a few individual shocks and setbacks.

 

Here’s a snippet:

 

““Apparently we’ve lost Darnall,” came the message on my WhatsApp from a Labour source on Friday morning. This came as a surprise, to put it mildly. The east Sheffield ward has long been considered an ultra safe Labour seat, and didn’t even come up as a concern for party insiders when I spoke to them for our election preview piece last week.

 

“However, when the Darnall result finally came through on Friday afternoon, my contact’s prediction proved right. Qais Al-Ahdal, an independent candidate backed by the Trade Union and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) had won with a massive 53% of the vote. Labour candidate Sajid Ghaufur trailed more than 1,000 votes behind with just 27%. In a press release sent to The Tribune in March, TUSC said they were backing Al-Ahdal on an “anti-war, anti-cuts” agenda. 60% of Darnall’s population are Muslim, perhaps suggesting one key factor shaped the result: the Labour Party’s stance on the war in Gaza.”
