Prominent climate change denier James Delingpole had a column in The Telegraph for a long time to tell us all how stupid we are for imagining that anything humans can do might change the climate. It’s sort of funny, in a dark kind of a way, to see the mental gymnastics now.

Hmmm. There are 1252 Schools in GM, so that's about 8%. Now, how about the LTNs, cycle lanes, enforcement (by Police and Councils), 20 mph, home cycle parking etc.?

. Rachel Reeves is saying we should ignore the 6th Carbon Budget, which calls for more remote working, and the extensive social and health benefits of wfh, and instead accept that our real job is to commute, neglect our children, and spend our wages in Pret.

Embarrassing.

Work from home has been the only major improvement in life for workers since the minimum wage and here we are with a Labour chancellor talking it down.

Today. Shocking 🀯. 30 years ago we hardly saw any pavement parking, now it is ubiquitous. This is an extension of that selfish behaviour, which isn't admonished by society or authorities due to said attitudes and cultures and a lack of enforcement, money, and legal authority.

This is about a 10, 8 and 4 year old. Who are now dead.

The idea the average Brit 'shares values' with this evil is absurd and insulting.

Absolutely and totally immoral that British citizens are subjected to this.

Our toleration is being utterly abused through a perverse immigration system that prioritises the rights of foreign criminals over the rights & interests of citizens. Deportation & reformation - now.

40% of Dutch cyclist deaths happen on 50km/hr roads where cyclists are forced to mix with cars.

If policymakers in the Netherlands shared your opposition to segregated cycling infrastructure, fatalities would be even higher.

Remember when I was ridiculed by the Palios fanboys for saying Tranmere’s owners wanted to sell the prime land on which Prenton Park sits and plonk us in a smaller ground on a dirt cheap site that would be under water by 2050?

Well, I was wrong.

It’s already under water.

In the Netherlands, where the Dutch invest in safe cycling infrastructure, the over-65s cycle around a quarter of their journeys, and the over-80s cycle around 10% of their journeys.

Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle lanes don't 'restrict freedom', they expand it.
