This post is from David Hembrow, a Brit who moved his family to Netherlands about 20 years ago + was probably the first British person to blog repeatedly about the Dutch cycling environment, seeking to improve the conversation in UK.
Initiatives like #MiniHolland were helped by Hembrow's work.

Precisely. Footpath cycling by and large is a coping mechanism to avoid death-by-HGV.
If the councillor is genuinely seeking to reduce footpath cycling, then some actual cycling space wouldn't go amiss.
Plenty of precedents in LBs Enfield and Waltham Forest. #MiniHolland
