People if it's a car: "Accidents happen."
People if it's an e-bike: "Bikes are dangerous, and should not be allowed on the streets. Besides, they don't even pay taxes."
Two stage right turn markings for cycling up Moorgate
Painted cycle lane on Moorgate with van parked in it
Ropemaker-Moorgate junction in the City today. Two stage right turn into South Place to reach C1 north is the best they could do. Nice to have a newly painted van parking lane though 🙄
If mandelson was a security risk has every decision he made in the US been scrutinised ?
The Paris transformation continues, unhindered by the culture of excuses, and self-sabotaging election results, that we’ve seen in too many other cities.
Oh so the BBC does know the difference between an electric motorbike and an ebike. Next time they deliberately mislabel it, they don’t have an excuse.
A solution to at least 30% of the issues raised on #BikeSky
And if you spend enough you get “free delivery” !
If you gong look you don’t see !
How many were asylum seekers, escaping the wars we support ?
Or a reminder that anyone who has an incident-free driving history can still be an appalling driver who has had many incidents, they just haven't been charged with anything before.
On my 50 mile drive home at 1am on Saturday on empty roads, I saw ~100 cars. I saw at least 48 points of bad driving.
“Blemish free” equates to never caught in journo speak !
Not allowed…. Unless the council allow it….. Haringey Camden…

It's happening! 📢
On Tuesday, MPs will consider an amendment to enable local leaders to ban pavement parking in their area. We need you to help us get this amendment on to the Bill.
Ask your MP to agree to Amendment 265 when it's considered on Tuesday: https://bitly.livingstreets.org.uk/4tMU2Uq
2 swift boxes, empty for past 3 years, we live in hope ;)
Plenty in area, enjoy sitting in garden watching them each evening.
Over a thousand common swifts have been spotted flying across France today at key migration points … they’re flying home to us! Let’s hope their homes are waiting for them. Who has swifts sharing their homes?
This comes as news from LBC shows Met basically aren't following up hit & runs against cyclists. Criminal drivers are clearly considered by many police as 'unfortunate but not a priority'. The consequences of that approach to society are horrific.
HT one of the good guys @andy-cox.bsky.social !
Due to a poor police investigation the hgv driver went on to kill again.
$1 mill In for trains $47 million split between Trump and FIFA ?
Drivers of cars are learning it’s a way to get away with “murder” by using a motor vehicle as a lethal weapon.
Uninsured driving isn’t victimless. Offenders are 6–7x more likely to be in a fatal crash, and over half are linked to wider criminality—reflecting risk-taking, disregard for the law, or deception. It pushes up costs for honest drivers. Tackling it protects communities.

…a driver with 2 pedals ?
Car drivers are often in Schrödinger's Rush.
In such a hurry, they might run a pedestrian or cyclist over without a second to spare. Have enough time to chew out a pedestrian or cyclist for a couple of minutes.
… so who will Laura interview tomorrow ? (Elections less than 3 weeks away)
Anyone who says this hasn't thought about the issue critically.
Also what about free buses?
Many lower paid staff such as porters and cleaners don't have cars.
Free parking would be an unfair subsidy for higher paid workers.
The fact that the maga appeals court ordered a judge to end a contempt investigation into the Trump administration is the very definition of CORRUPTION.
We must clean house & the only way to get there is to fire the entire GOP.

Aggressive driver this afternoon. “what are you doing in middle of road”…. Er turning right !
"They were so lucky I was looking"
Ummm no. Stopping in time for a child running onto the street is not heroic/lucky, it is your goddamn obligation as a driver. Cost of entry. Kids are allowed to be unpredictable, you are not.
🚨 £17.6 billion in debt, soaring bills, and zero fines for sewage pollution.
Regulators are reportedly striking a backroom deal to let Thames Water dodge all new pollution fines until 2030. We pay the price while failing water bosses get another free pass.
