r/Hull

Be careful down spring bank was between park lane and collingwood some chav on an electric bike wearing a balaclava clearly just went to grab my phone as i stood at the bus stop heard him coming and saw him just in time and got it into my pocket, veered right into the bus stop just as i got it in my pocket and then sped straight off again

Turnout in the elections was around 30% - meaning the majority didn't vote.

There were 5 parties competing - Conservative, Green, Labour , Lib Dems, Reform (alphabetical order), so it doesn't seem like all the options are the same.

My 24 month contract with Home Telecom (MS3) is coming to an end. Barely a blip in 24 months, consistent with the reliability I had previously on KCOM. Would happily stay on MS3 and it seems the current deals with HT and Squirrel are £29/£30 a month. However, I've seen some deals with Vodafone and Rise which apparently use the Cityfibre network?

Can anyone recommend it? Is it reliable? I'm a little confused as well, as I haven't seen anyone actually install this network on my street. Nothing has changed as far as I can see since MS3 dug up the whole street a few years back. How would they even get it to my house?

And don't mention KCOM please. Thanks!

Just that really, I can't find anything online. Personally, I'm particularly interested in a) who they will work with on the council and b) their priorities for Orchard Park.

Hi Guys

I’m in Hull for a week and I love it here but don’t come a lot. Spiders is amazing. I’ve had a look online and wander around town. been into damaged society. any advice on places to shop for alternative/goth clothes in Hull would be much appreciated thank you

I know it has been somewhat replaced with votes for Reform, but lib dems remain the largest party in Hull City Council, and also in many of the suburb wards in the East Riding. Why are the lib dems so popular here? It doesn't feel like the kind of place they'd have a lot of support. And in general election all the constituencies vote Labour on that bigger level. Insight from wiser people / those clued up on local politics welcomed.

I’m a young woman trying to move out. Around this area is all I can afford without making myself house poor and vulnerable to interest rate changes.

My parents who both live in nice areas and only briefly lived near town when they were younger (90s?) are telling me it’s awful round there. But I don’t really have any other options and need to move out for a multitude of reasons. Every time I’ve been round there on nights out with female friends, even on occasions when I’m walking alone, I’ve never had any trouble

I’d love to hear what it’s like from people who’ve actually LIVED there. Thank you!

Hi.
