Lots of potential for @Morrisons Newport Rd cycle parking. Would be greatly improved by following the old movie narrative Lights, Camera, Action! Oh and some good signage! @CdffCycleCity

Just visited my local @coopuk tonight and sad to see as usual lots of food destined for the bin! The same time this evening my partner has returned from @Tesco collecting all their surplus food to be shared thanks to @Olio_ex When Co-op are you going to stop this huge wastage?

In years to come, students in university departments around the world will be studying the propaganda embedded in this headline. As someone who regularly lectures in sociology, journalism and media studies, I could teach an entire lesson on the title alone. For example: 1. Treating the 4 Israeli soldiers as more important than the 23 Palestinian children (by leading the story with their deaths and just chucking in the others at the end) implies their lives are of higher value. 2. Infantilizing active duty soldiers as "teenagers" while not emphasizing the age of the schoolkids, despite many of them being demonstrably younger. 3. The classic use of the passive voice: Israelis are "killed" while Palestinians merely "die". 4. Putting scare quotes around "23 die" subtly undermines the credibility of that claim. Maybe no one died, and the Palestinians are just lying? 5. Using the word "attack" for Hezbollah actions, but choosing a more neutral, clinical word like "strike" for Israeli aggression. 6. Allowing Israeli sources to dictate the framing of the story ("Israel names teenage soldiers") etc. 7. Actually naming the Israeli soldiers, but not doing the same for the far greater number of Palestinians, again sends the message to the reader that Palestinian lives don't matter nearly as much, if at all. It's truly incredible how much propaganda has been packed into 16 words. We are swimming in an ocean of propaganda. That's why it is crucial to deconstruct it and critically assess everything you read, see and hear.

The lost streets of Splott. From Milford Street down was demolished and pushed into the sea to make way for an industrial estate. The streets were classed as slums, the development deemed to bring prosperity. I know which I would prefer. #savemefromprogress #lostsplott #Splott

Thank you @JennyRathbone, Welsh Labour MS, for taking the time to pay us a visit last week. Jenny took to one of our ICE Trike recumbents like a duck to water (pssst, they are VERY easy and comfortable to ride for all ages and abilities)👍 cardiffpedalpower.org
