@thesundaytimes How it started. How it's going

@BobFromAccounts Give the bikes another lane.

on the right is a picture of efficiency. the rest is a picture of how much space is sacrificed for cars

a couple of months ago i went to a yacht show in a tax haven and asked dozens of people how they felt about their carbon footprints 1/

@enjoinick ah thanks will take a look when I get a chance

@benjarom3 thanks so much for the CarPriceTracker tool. It seems like autotrader USA has changed their URL links and I cant create a new search. Can you help with this?

I’ve been looking into the terrible speeding and racing that goes on at Alexandra Palace and I’ve been really shocked at what I’ve found out. Especially given that Ally Pally is hosting the Cycle Show this weekend. Do please read. Thread 🧵 1/10

@_HannahRitchie Think there's a mistake here?

How long does it take to build a nuclear reactor? My latest Substack: hannahritchie.substack.com/p/nuclear-cons…

@sturdyAlex Got to love the reduction in red tape I have to say

@mattzeunert @DebugBear Does this get you views/click throughs?

Made another Youtube shorts on page speed optimization. This one is a bit more vertical, though I'm really struggling with the one-minute duration – spent a lot of time cutting 200 millisecond pauses. Callouts are also a bit jumpier than I'd like. youtube.com/shorts/nJpNGgx…

@thiswasmichael @NetZeroWatch No one cares about hydrogen boilers, sweetie. Enjoy the transition to heat pumps

@NetZeroWatch I think that’s a non story. A 4” hole is a standard vent size. We were required to fit one for a log burner.

@HughOxford @Otto_English Companies in “out for profit” shocker

All conspiracy theories are essentially religious in nature. What we see here is a schism between the "true believing" antivaxxers and the (as they see them) heretic Doubting Thomases who dared to get jabs.

@OfSouthall @Hillarymark @_petermason No Steve

@benjarom3 @Hillarymark @_petermason To turn Warren Farm into a sports ground for Sharma's son? I don't think so!

The protest outside Peoples Question Time at Ealing Town Hall tonight wasn’t an expression of freedom of speech. People from outside our borough came to our streets to spread racism, intimidation and hatred. This isn’t democracy, this is barbarism. You’re not welcome.

@OfSouthall @Hillarymark @_petermason You do realise they got voted in on that precise mandate?

@Hillarymark @_petermason So what exactly is the point of their consultations? Oh I forgot, they have to do them. Just the typical arrogance of today's Labour Party that they know best!

RT @SellingAMirror:

@Pierssy @danielgoyal @Keir_Starmer “Only 25 points”. Really?

@benjarom3 @danielgoyal @Keir_Starmer And? My point is he has no real vision, he's shown us little solid policy with lashings of rhetoric and bullet points harvested from YouGov. He's offering management not leadership. And only 25 points against this Government.

Labour seem to think its only job in opposition is to get back into power by whatever means possible. They forget they must also provide a moral alternative to a morally vacuous government. They must oppose the reprehensible. Leadership starts now. @Keir_Starmer where is it?

@Pierssy @danielgoyal @Keir_Starmer 25 points ahead in the polls.

@ralexander100 @mrdanwalker Do you wear a helmet when walking down the street?

@mrdanwalker Such a CRITICAL point Re wearing a helmet when cycling; especially in London.

Blown away by all the lovely messages. Thank you. Just got home from hospital. Battered and bruised but - amazingly - nothing broken. Very thankful to still be here. I have no memory of anything and just remember coming round on the tarmac with paramedics & police around me 1/3

@BBvoice4all Don't these planters keep getting vandalised?

A minor, but telling, development in Bowes LTN - the installation of plastic 'foliage' in their 'planters'. (The replanting signs are also plastic). The scheme is championed by greenwashers who are now celebrating the convenience of another environmentally unsound development:

@humantravl @SocEnvJustice @martin_mckee ^^^ this

Thanks to all of you who have welcomed the formation of SEJ. Below is information about what we are campaigning for. We spell out why we oppose LTNs but also outline some of the measures needed to cut pollution, noise & danger on all our roads.

@rafaelbehr @sunny_hundal @michaelgove It's the greatest song ever

I have a lot of respect for @michaelgove for not giving up his love for dancing and raving thesun.co.uk/news/21452943/…
