OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened.

Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah.

A long overdue visit to the @workersgallery.bsky.social but luckily still in time to enjoy the "Rhondda Drawn and Read" exhibition. Great to catch up on all the news and of course there was a bit of retail therapy as well.

Electric bikes can be fast and dangerous. Here's how to stay safe As electric-bike usage has risen, so have e-bike injuries, and regulations in cities and states throughout the country are rapidly changing.

The way to stay safe on or near an ebike is to stay away from people driving cars, who kill nearly 40k people annually in the US, and well over 1 million people worldwide.

What impact has 20mph had on road safety in Wales? The introduction of a default 20mph speed limit on restricted roads in Wales in September 2023 generated significant public debate. The policy increased the share of roads with a 20mph limit from 2% to 37% as of September 2023.

Latest Senedd Research report has shown that road casualties in Wales dropped significantly after implementing the default 20mph limit when compared to England and Scotland. Another reason to say #20splenty where people are.
