In an attempt to explain just why it is that some 77 million Americans voted for the dumbest man alive to be their president for a second time, I’m absolutely delighted to present you with the expanded list of US food that you cannot legally sell in Europe!🧵

What was distinctive about 2025 for 20’s Plenty for Us was how the narrative developed from whether to introduce 20mph limits as an urban/village norm into how they should be implemented. 20splenty.org/2026_for20sple…

The new UK Road Safety Strategy with its target of a 65% reduction in casualties and mandating of a Safe System approach, marks the beginning of the end for the national 30mph speed limit. It's no longer credible when its been rejected by all Welsh and Scottish and 55% of English authorities.

Not the only back-door increase. Changing the classifications of "peak journey" was a big one.

The Oxted Country Market is back this Friday, 9 January 2026, from 10am to noon. bit.ly/4svBdoR

England has the highest %age of urban/village roads in GB with unforgiving 30mph limits. When incidents happen the time/space to avoid them turning into crashes/casualties is minimised. England needs a Road Safety Strategy that facilitates and funds 20mph as an urban/village norm like Wales/Scotland.

Residents in a Surrey village made famous by a Hollywood movie have slammed a council decision to place planters in its square as an "awful April Fools' joke". Tap below to read more: bbc.in/3FJWE1Q

We are pleased to launch our new O.W.L (Overhead-Watch -Location) system. The eco-friendly eye in the sky with built in night vision gives us the advantage we need in night searching.

@oxted I hope the council will cut down that tree. It ruins the view.
