"Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary said it was conducting inquiries into the boat-slashing incident. It said officers had made six arrests... All six people were in custody on Tuesday night." - Hopefully one of the six people arrested is Daniel Thomas. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s...

While long-term funding is key to the National Cycle Network's success, £104m over four years is £26m a year... the equivalent of upgrading a single A-road junction. CWIS3, the government's four-year strategy mentioned '7,000 additional or improved [NCN] miles by 2030'...so £14,857 per mile?

Change the way we travel? Then mandate that councils MUST rapidly roll-out safe, connected, direct cycle infrastructure everywhere (+fund them). It takes 15-20 mins by e-bike to travel across town, but direct uses a 40mph road with guaranteed close passes and only a narrow footpath for active travel

I think the worst part of Labour's response to the fascist mobilisation is Andy Burnham's absence. He's the most popular politician in the country, with social media reach and actual powers of persuasion, and he's saying nothing in public. He can actually be of use here but he's choosing not to

Bill Bryson on the RNLI in "The Road to Little Dribbling : more notes from a small island" (2015)

On Tallinn's Kalamaja Street, a conventional traffic sewer has become a hybrid of two familiar Dutch concepts: the woonerf, or curbless living street where pedestrians, cyclists and drivers share the same space, and the fietsstraat, where bicycles are given priority and cars are effectively guests.🧵

"Mr Speaker, my government is today announcing special police action in response to RNLI staff and volunteers being threatened by these hate-filled people. We remind the UK public that RNLI staff are emergency workers and we *will* protect them as such to the full extent of the law" C'mon Andy...

The mental gymnastics you have to perform to find fault with the RNLI... These are volunteers, putting their lives at risk to stop people dying at sea. They're from communities where that used to be a common and earth-shaking occurrence, regardless of who the victim was.

Just take the cars...

The BBC looking anything but impartial or balanced on this one. Farage has gone into backside covering mode, not a surprise. But Britain's broadcaster actively playing to his narrative is even more shameful.

Then 30p Lee goes completely unchallenged...claiming "no laws have been broken" and slipping in the same claim that the footage was funded by climate change activists. utterly jaw dropping. As a reminder, this is the UKs public broadcaster, folks. 3/3

Who could have predicted that making this kerb at-grade on a busy junction would lead to it being driven on and needing protection? Me. Me predicted it.

Am I an outlier in that most people don't understand just how ubiquitous cycling infrastructure is in the Netherlands vs other nations and how powerful that infrastructure is? Yes, it is flat. I have a flat 30mph road near me but it is a rutted, cluttered hellscape compared to the same in NL.

Und auch heute nochmal vier Bilder aus dem Amsterdamer Wald, die zeigen: Asphaltierte Hauptwege können zwar auch vom Fuß- und Radverkehr sowie von Dienst- und Einsatzfahrzeugen genutzt werden – allen voran profitieren davon aber die Menschen, die körperlich eingeschränkt sind! 🇳🇱❤️🚲🦼 & Co.

warning.

Unprotected bus stops lead to dangerous crush movements, even if everyone is careful & follows the rules. This leads to people cycling aggressively (jumping reds) or cycling on the pavement. Well designed floating bus stops make near misses & crashes between buses and cyclists almost impossible.

We know how to build infrastructure that keeps people safe(r) and encourages cycling - we have pages and pages of documents on how to do it properly and why. We just choose not to.
