That’s because helmets are not rated for car crashes, only for falling off a bike, so telling people a helmet will protect them when a 7000 lb auto smashes their body is just a lie. Traffic calming, smaller cars, fix blind spots, infrastructure, consequences for drivers who run over humans.

Amazing work by the City police, if only the rest of Greater London and the country had their resources. Full details in the alt text.

Reform voters aren't interested in the issues, they just want the people they hate to be miserable. Labour needs to stop trying to win their votes. They can't be reached.

By February this year, @london.gov.uk's TfL had spent £66.5m replacing the #GallowsCorner flyover and re-aligning the traffic lanes below. This should have been a once in a generation opportunity to future-proof the junction for walking, wheeling and cycling. Instead, it's a failure.

A black bicycle with red pannier bags is sideways across a path with a very wide road to the right.

The back wheel is against guardrail to the right and the front overhanging the grass of a verge to the left. The path is marked with a sign on a lamp column as shared use.

There is a large green directional sign straddling that path with posts within handlebar striking range.

The sign is for Gallows
Corner.

Westminster Council Conservatives, of 'vertical drinking' fame, earlier this year proudly cancelled a cycle lane on Hamilton Terrace. Where on a Thursday afternoon last June a 13 year old boy was hit and seriously injured by the driver of a car. They have received no negative press for doing so.

Screenshot of TfL road danger reduction dashboard summary of collision which reads:

On 12/06/2025 there was a moderately serious collision at 15:15 at On Hamilton Terrace, Near The Junction With Abercorn Place.. The collision took place on an unclassified road. The collision involved a pedal cycle and a car, resulting in 1 moderately seriously injured cyclist.

Our neighbours in Waltham Forest just keep pushing further and further to make cycling better—here, a crowded shared footway that was over capacity is being replaced by a separated cycleway. More convenient for cycling, and much safer & less stressful for pedestrians going to Whipps Cross Hospital!

“As Aydin jumps a scooter over ramps set up in the middle of the road, children around him are drawing with chalk, blowing bubbles and kicking a football in a spot where cars are usually driving through.” Good job Leeds. More children should have the chance to play in their neighbourhood like this.

Big new story from @annaisaac.bsky.social. Cottrell transferred $2m to his mother before she made Reform & Tice donations. The even bigger question now is where did Cottrell’s money come from? And this is where I think a very big problem lies.. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This disingenuous commentary doesn’t help anyone. Frauds start unravelling pretty quickly. That you apparently cannot afford to put your oven or treat yourself is quickly undermined by the question “so why are you spending £50 per week on petrol?” Then, it turns out, she has an agent and /1

Cities that PROCLAIM A CLIMATE EMERGENCY but fail to curb motor traffic are being disingenuous at best. If they purport to care about health and sustainability whilst locking in expensive and exclusionary forms of transport that are bad for health and suck up all capital spending They're bastards

The narrative around autonomous vehicles often frames them as inevitable. But choosing them is a political choice, not a technological certainty. When we treat self-driving cars as the default future, we choose to double down on private, car-centric infrastructure and unsustainable futures.
