UK air pollution is killing more than 500 people a week. This is why health professionals across the country from Manchester, Birmingham, London, Southampton and Brighton, are coming out today to call on the UK Government for more action to clean up our air. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A reminder...two more days (2nd May) to respond to the Oxford Street Transformation consultation. This is the current (miserable) state of affairs for what should be an iconic public space in the heart of our capital. If you get a minute, please respond to show your support lnkd.in/egzBcgNb

So sad to hear of the passing of Peter Kenyon, a man who influenced my politics significantly. He served on Labour’s NEC, was a councillor in Hackney and acted as Diane Abbott’s election agent. Professionally he had a long career as a journalist for Reuters.

IMPORTANT: Paris has been implementing a 5-Year Pedestrian Plan: - 300 million € invested by 2026 - 100 new hectares of pedestrian space - 100 more “streets for kids” - Focus on 0 pedestrian deaths #VisionZero - Longer pedestrian cross times geared to seniors Leadership. Does your city have one?

Transport Secretary Louise Haigh MP will publish an outline of her proposed Integrated Transport Strategy (ITS) on Thursday (tinyurl.com/34cu9k3v), exactly a week after the passing of the great John Prescott. Some thoughts on the need to avoid history repeating itself 🧵
