Blind people have told @willnorman over and over they can no longer use their bus services because he is running bikes through bus stops. This is discriminatory and therefore illegal. S 149 Equality Act

OXFORD LTNs: "It doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out that if you shut off side streets, all the traffic goes on to main roads.
"This is not what councils should be doing, they should be getting basics right"

Interest in cycling drops despite £millions spent presumably as WFH reduces & people return to long work commutes post Covid.
Note the ableist green sign. LTNs rarely let some groups of disabled and their drivers or carers through the traffic restrictions

It will increase congestion, vehicle miles & emissions bad for planet & public health but if the priority is to increase journeys by bicycle then converting bus lanes to cycle lanes and removing bus stops must be central to London's transport strategy. 😱teapaw.org/SOBSave55/status/16950…

The demands of cycling lobby groups are prioritised over the safety of pedestrians and bus users.

This saddens me but it is with regret but I agree with most of it. The council and our MP can wax lyrical as much as they want but the reality is that the city us in rapid decline and impacts on everyone. They prefer to focus on schemes which benefit the few.

Read the C40 docs
I have
No cars
Flights
Heat
Air conditioning
Or new clothes
For the peasants
Truly
And 40 cities have agreed
And @MayorofLondon
Is testing the ground
As far as I can see
Wake up peasants
You have everything to lose
And there are people waiting and wanting
To take it
.@andykessler gets it:
Climate is about controlling you. Not the weather.
@MikeBloomberg's C40 Cities program has a 2030 target of no meat, no dairy, no private vehicles and only 'three new clothing items per person per year.'"

Lower taxes, wider ownership, more personal freedoms are 3 pillars of Conservatism. Will the government give them a boost?

Messages yesterday from a meeting of Conservative members to the government. Cut taxes. Stop the boats. Cut waiting lists. Stand up for drivers against car hating Councils.

After breaching client confidentiality by speaking to the BBC, violating FCA rules and lying through her teeth, Alison Rose has been awarded a £2.4m payout from a bank 40% owned by the taxpayer.
Disgusting. Corrupt. Unacceptable.

India has become the first country to successfully land a spacecraft near the south pole of the moon so why did we send them £33.4 million in foreign aid which is set to rise to £57 million in 24/25
Time we get our money back.
Malcolm Dexter retweeted
The uk shouldn’t be sending aid to countries with space programs so advance they can land rockets on the other side of the moon
