Putin tried and failed to murder Navalny quickly and secretly with poison, and now he has murdered him slowly and publicly in prison. He was killed for exposing Putin and his mafia as the crooks and thieves they are. My thoughts are with the brave man's wife and children.

While other public services are being starved of funds, billions are poured into a catastrophic road-building programme, that can be sustained only by lies and obfuscation. Why? Because roads are among the few public services used by the very rich. theguardian.com/environment/20…

@leeroyjones73 What really gets my goat is, like most people using a bike, I have a taxed car at home, yet these numb-skulls think I should pay extra for using a much more environmentally friendly and healthy alternative instead.

"When cyclists pay road tax, I'll treat them with respect when I'm driving." - Okay, how do cyclists go about paying this 'road tax'?

@sexandtheswiss I've used my head: I've done the research and conducted a personal cost/benefit analysis. The conclusion of which is I mostly (but not always) don't bother with a helmet. I don't need advertising telling me I haven't used my head.

Why is this advert making people angry? You can't tell someone who suffered a head injury with a helmet that was damaged the helmet didn't help them. If you don't want to wear one, don't. Why be mad others do? #cycling

Use your head. Wear a helmet every time you cycle. 🧠 Together with our partner @lazersport, we are raising awareness of the importance of wearing a helmet with a goal to increase helmet use. #useyourhead #parisroubaix

@gazza_d @richmtb77 If you're playing that game, my car cost £3k 16 years ago. Cars last well if you look after them and only do 3000 miles per year.

@theJeremyVine In general i find other drivers more annoying when I'm driving compared to when I'm cycling. Another reason I prefer to ride me bike.

We all know libertarians are only interested in their own freedom to do what the hell they like without others getting in their way.

They spend half their lives lying about having their freedom of speech taken away, the other half trying to take away @garylineker’s & they’re too thick to see the irony.

@mattwardman @allpartycycling That's what I was wondering. When I was a teenager in the late eighties I'd ride between the two, centre to centre, in less than 30 minutes. A40 was good for a high average speed.

“It remains a shocking fact that 92% of land in England is privately owned” No it isn’t. Unless you are a Marxist and/or want to starve. The shocking thing is that someone could be paid to write an article that begins with that sentence theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

We tolerate a level of killing on our roads that would be considered entirely unacceptable were it happening anywhere else. Do we all need to lose a child before things change? bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

@nikc68 @johnredwood Leaving the EU free trade zone was always going to be incompatible with the good Friday agreement. Any politician worth their salt should have sorted this before the brexit vote. #LeadByDonkeys

The Foreign Secretary needs to tell the EU and President Biden they can only restore the Good Friday Agreement by dropping the NI Protocol. Unionists do not want to accept lots of new EU laws they had no say in nor government by judgement of the EU court.

Dorset Hunt Monitor@DorsetMonitor

Tell us again @dorsetpolice why the public have to be endangered by hunts like the Portman hunting foxes over roads. The whipper-in eventually puts hounds through a hedge before others in the distance locate the fox and he encourages them on. Hounds ended up on the A30.
