We must not fail to learn from history.Russian irridentism about a return to Greater Russia or the USSR's borders means Putin & Russia aren't to be trusted.Ukraine, Georgia & Chechnya have been repeatedly attacked.Other independent states are right to be fearful if Ukraine falls.

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods, 20 mph speed limits & the ultra-low emission zone save lives. London Boroughs that block 20 mph limits need to step up, implement what works & protect road users & pedestrians.
