Somebody really needs to explain how these two things can be true. 1) “She was positioned in what is known as a cycle safe zone” and “the accused failed to stop his lorry at the advanced stop line in his lane and so he partially obstructed the cycle safe area” 1/3

What's wrong is that it's at best vapid and at worst vicious. It lays claim to ownership of a single version of this country and is the perennial slogan of a grievance politics which can never be sated and so offers no deliverable programme of government. But, otherwise, fine.

And they ask why we need cycle lanes in Edinburgh, separated from dangerous drivers like this one
Thanks @mattgreencomedy for amazing show tonight. I was the woman who forgot her child’s age. I realised £1 tooth fairy was too cheap for my jaded son when he didn’t even bother look under the pillow when I excitedly asked if she’d been, saying “sigh, 🙄that was *you*”
This is all Camilla has done since the start of the year. About 11 hours of engagements across nine days since January 1st.
This is all William has done since the start of the year. The BAFTA awards will be his fourth engagement and third day of engagements since January 1st. Two brief investiture ceremonies, one gala and an awards ceremony. That's it. And for that we give him more than £22m a year.
You can't carry [insert random large/heavy object that the vast majority of people will never need to carry] on a bicycle, therefore it's completely pointless owning one. A thread 🧵

If you want to understand how much, as a society, we’ve slowly normalised road danger, watch this clip from tonight’s BBC News at Six. I personally don’t think horrific crashes like this should be in the light-hearted “and finally” section.
There are new figures out for how hard the royals work. We've crunched the numbers. William and Kate have done less than a month's work spread over twelve months. Kate even less. Charles and Anne only did two months each. #AbolishTheMonarchy republic.org.uk/prince_william…

Where do we start? 🤦🏻♂️ Road Policing Scotland focusing on someone using an e-scooter (doesn't exactly look like a powerful one) to take their kid to school, an activity that is almost certainly very low risk, and much better than driving. Road Policing is a mess in Scotland. 😩

@Stuartpendous @urbancyclist I agree with you that a cargo bike is better, but people who normally drive short urban distances can imagine themselves in one of these, but not "exposed" on a bike, so it might appeal to those people more.
If we are to reverse biodiversity loss we are going to have to talk about sheep. I know it will be difficult, I know it will be emotional but together we can do better. I truly believe we can keep a sustainable national flock without needing to graze every inch of our uplands.
@anon_opin This is what I always find bonkers about people who argue against things like bike lanes. Folks, you only need to get about 5-10% of people out of their steel-encased three-piece suites for short journeys, and it'll be school holiday traffic all year round.

@Stuartpendous I think that’s essentially it. More year round comfort, plus for many the cafe will provide a greater sense of safety. While our cities are so car centric I can see why this is a more attractive option than an electric cargobike for many. It’s a small step in the right direction.

What a bizarre period of UK history. An unelected, extremely unpopular billionaire PM seeing out a term of office by bulldozing through policies that were never in any manifesto, that break the law. This isn't a functioning democracy...not even close.
Worth noting that the changes to Tesco🚦 were to bring in an 'All stop' phase to allow safe 🚶♂️ crossings in all direction The timings of the lights continue to prioritise the E-W traffic on the A8, which incudes multiple bus routes The cycle route itself hasnt impacted timings
The blocking of the Roseburn Gardend has also impacted traffic movements but has removed 1000s of vehicles from a narrow Residential road, totally unsuitable for thay volume. & finally, when considering options, the modelleling of alternative OptionB has worse queues on RR/RS
On what planet did the Spectator think it appropriate to print this or the author pen it? I'm absolutely gobsmacked.

Only the UK could make a megastar out of Robbie Williams, a Butlins redcoat who got lucky. Say what you want about the Yanks, but they took one look and said "you've got to be fucking kidding me". Which was, is, and always will be, the only correct reaction.
