@Denholm131 @BerkshireCyc @but_cyclists The verge would look a whole lot better if it hadn't been destroyed by the cars parking on it, which they never should have done in the first place

@BerkshireCyc @but_cyclists They do look shit mind

A resident angry that they can no longer park on the pavement

@54JohnBull @GBNews23653867 Cars maybe safer, but this leads to complacenty with drivers taking more risks knowing they probably won't die in a crash, far more traffic on the roads today, and has road infrastructure really improved enough or would £££ need to be spent to let a few drive a few mph more?

@GBNews23653867 70mph is an arbitrary speed that was considered suitable for mid 1960's cars. 80mph is a safe speed for vehicles that are many times more reliable and effective than 60 years ago.

🚨A friend of ours suffered a brain injury that left her in a wheelchair and needing round the clock care. And all because a driver had to do 89mph on the motorway. That costs the taxpayer thousands a month, her life ruined at 23. Now Rupert wants to repeat this with others.

@TawhakiTheGod @CllrKieran Some people already seem to think drink driving is ok, photo taken this afternoon

@CllrKieran Legalise drink and drug driving! Enough of this woke bullshit.

A Restore Britain Government would raise the speed limit to 80mph on British motorways. Support Restore Britain to get the country moving.

Car seemingly abandoned on Marsh Way Wakefield, interesting choice of refreshment #drinkdrive

@RupertLowe10 Nice, let's see those KSI massively increase; possibly one of the stupidest ideas any party can come up with,70 is more than enough on motorways as driving standards in the UK are terrible, 20 is sensible in LTN's, maybe more enforcement of current speed limits would be better

A Restore Britain Government would back British drivers. How? Raise the speed limit on motorways to 80mph. Remove all 20mph zones, other than those outside schools or areas with vulnerable individuals. Our current 70 mph speed limit was implemented decades ago, for a completely different type of car with completely different capabilities - far lower safety standards, poorer braking, and less advanced handling. It is unnecessarily slow, plenty of other countries sensibly allow for more. 80mph is faster and fair, and Restore Britain would do the unthinkable - trust people to get on with their lives without such overbearing state interference. It boosts business, backs drivers and gets Britain moving. Support Restore Britain to make it 80.

@thesnuckster @ConeOfArc There older stuff is very cheap, even there latest stuff like the soon to be released Chaffee is cheap vs other brands.

@ConeOfArc Tamiya are a bit pricey but they all go together very well and do not often require much or any filler n sanding Armor is pretty forgiving and easy to hide or even integrate fukups due to their roughly finished nature IRL Airplanes much less forgiving

Model builders I have a question for you. If you had to recommend a starter kit for people just getting into the hobby what would you include?

@CitizenUddin You got your monies worth out of that

I was wondering what I could hear on #CyclingWifeys video footage every time she braked.........

@ArthurWithouter @RealBlackIrish @Britgirl0000 That's insulting Savile Town!

@RealBlackIrish @Britgirl0000 It’s like Dorothy returning to Kansas, except that Kansas is Savile Town.

Sums up the mood of both eras pretty well

@Fremond_ Starships have been around for years now, nice, but they have been the now for a long time, not the future

the future is friendly

@last_m0hican @Cappyarmy Gene Hackman, Actor in Bat21, Gene Hambleton the real pilot who's call sign was Bat21

@Cappyarmy Pretty sure his name was Gene Hackman.

There is a theory that the rescue operation was actually cover for a failed attack on the Isfahan Nuclear facility. There are several problems with this theory . First Iran state media is not even claiming this and they would love to claim this if there was any evidence. Even Iran state TV is saying it was a rescue operation that succeeded but with American destroyed aircraft. The airstrip the C130s landed at was 100 km from the Nuclear Facility an hour and a half drive. You would need to land much closer and in past operations that the IDF did for example they landed directly on site on a missile base in Syria. There were no reports or video of American assets near Isfahan nuclear facility . There was reports and video evidence that they traveled in the opposite direction 150km south by little bird from the airstrip. People are saying two C130s and hundred commandos is overkill to rescue a pilot . but historically in Vietnam they’ve sent in similar packages multiple AC130s and fighter jets on recovery missions . Standard doctrine for modern day “unconventional assisted recovery” in heavily contested air is to first stage outside the close radius of where the pilot is located. Then extract the pilot out of the immediate area , then fly back to base. Im interested in seeing evidence of an attack on Isfahan nuclear facility . I’m open to it. I just have not seen any actual evidence.

@CoHSATOxon And don't over lube, far too many people over lube/don't wipe excess off.

Main things: Pump the tyres and lube the chain occasionally.

A used bike from a cycle shop can cost less than a tank of fuel, but will last for years and thousands of miles with minimal maintenance. #BeatTheFuelCrisis

@JeremyVineOn5 4k mer metre, but what does that cover, other than being ragebait for certain 'news' papers, normally there's a lot more that the figures given cover, with the construction costs being the smallest part

Are cycle lanes a waste of money? One in the West Midlands has cost over £4,000 for every metre - totalling to over £5 million. It's been branded a "monumental waste of money" by local residents, who say it would have been better spent on fixing potholes. What do you think?

@DFEAZY @AuldManMac Once postage is considered, charity shops can make eBay look cheap

@AuldManMac Nah I’d rather the charity shop get the market value than the jobless loser that buys them for £3 just to stick them on eBay

Charity shops are cooked, boomers sitting googling eBay prices as if it’s their money. Gone are the days of grabbing some antique clock or dish set for £5

@plantsman12 @Jenny_1884 @cristo_radio VED not car tax, choose a car with low emissions/band if you don't want to pay much, mine was £20 this year

@Jenny_1884 @cristo_radio Car drivers pay road tax, cyclists don't.

Councils have narrowed our roads in order to make way for cycle lanes that nobody ever seems to use. There are far more motorists on the road than there are cyclists. Crazy waste of taxpayers money once again.

@mitchell_hurd @flickhwilliams @SocEnvJustice @BetterBusesNY @BetterBusesWY 20:00hrs last night 31 March, not tonight, not good if you travel on the bus between Wakefield and Batley, 212 is gone for now

@flickhwilliams @SocEnvJustice @BetterBusesNY @BetterBusesWY No way this can be true? Bit of a strange day to announce it!

Yorkshire buses (serving the Leeds, Wakefield, Dewsbury area) has ceased operations. The fact they have been allowed to go under by politicians who shout about Net Zero is monstrous. Mass transit needs subsidy in a fuel crisis unless the goal really is climate lockdown⁉️

@BeKnightedSir @PanzerInsight For the time they were big, vs a current MBT, say a Leopard 2A7 they look so small

Tiger I Ausf.E Color footage. This was one of my most favorite videos I ever made, spend hours on the sound editing, got almost 600k views and was taken down by YouTube for Hate-Speech. Full video here: youtu.be/iKiNnQeJrU4

@BlickyIan @steve_clayden Haven't they dumped a load of money into it since resurfaced the runway?

@steve_clayden There was

Well we are now fucked - totally as the US will I expect pull back from NATO or out all together - so when RAF mildenhall and Lakenheath relocate to the USA that's a huge amount of jobs about to vanish in Norfolk / Suffolk

@RyanPrice236130 @beachcomber50 @Biffa @SomersetCouncil Depressurize first!

@beachcomber50 @Biffa @SomersetCouncil Remove the nipple and you've got steel and brass

#litterpickers I’m wondering how you deal with these if you find them? Our local @Biffa recycling centre charge £9.60 for taking them and @SomersetCouncil say it’s dangerous to remove them and should report as fly tipping! We’re trying to keep our countryside litter free.

@Armorama Looks really nice, shouldn't be needed, but that's Tamiya for you; and hopefully RFM will do a complete line of TDs which will have an interior as standard
