Glasgow's cycling infrastructure is getting really good! Puts many English cities to absolute shame.

Glasgow, A famously flat place with perfect bike weather /s All the reasons non-riders give for why biking can't work are BS. The only thing that matters is safe infrastructure.

Oxford Street pedestrianisation should really allow bicycles in off-peak hours tbh. I don't really see why it should be 24/7 - works well in many pedestrianised zones already across Europe.

I went on the Canary Wharf to Rotherhithe Pier ferry on the weekend. It cost £4.10 and took seven minutes from tap in to tap out (longer when you include waiting for the ferry to arrive). It's mad that this country can't build a bridge from one of its major financial centres to a nearby suburb.

Seemingly calling for any woman perceived to be trans using a public toilet to be photographed, doxxed and harassed certainly strikes me as transphobic. You wouldn’t agree?

Quite easily, really. Decent men will stay out, as they always have, so we can assume all who don't are a threat, given their disregard for women's and girls' safety, privacy and dignity.
Photographing, reporting and disseminating such men's images online will be a piece of cake.

I have nothing against drivers. I just don’t think it’s OK for some to decide rules are for other people. And I find it baffling that so many drivers who purport to be law-abiding want to make that argument.

Tower Hamlets says Victoria Park closes at dusk but this is an hour before dusk???? Also, imo, parks should not close at night, but if they have to dusk is such a rubbish choice in the UK given how early it gets. It should be dusk or like 8pm, whichever is later.

Hospital parking is never free. Someone always pays. In the NHS it steals money that could be used by frontline services. Do you want to make children better, or park for free? Oh and I bet there's no free bus services to that hospital either, so it's even more unfair

Summer of terrifying drought and wildfire, bus drivers sweltering in shocking temperatures, everyone losing sleep unable to get cool at night and *this* is the policy they come up with? Just makes things worse and does nothing to address inequality or enable people to walk, cycle or catch a bus. 🤷‍♀️

As promised, our off road biking measures on King George’s Park have now started to be installed. 
This is Sedgley Street entrance today.
Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) signs have also been placed at all the main entrances advising of a £1,000 fine, criminal offence and bike seizure.

Someone put me as "mild frailty" on my NHS profile back in 2022 it's so over
Fig 1. Clinical Frailty Scale  
1. Very fit
People who are robust, active, energetic and motivated. They commonly exercise regularly and are among the fittest for their age.  
2. Well
People who have no active disease symptoms but are less fit than category 1. Typically, they exercise or are very active occasionally, such as seasonally.  
3. Managing well
People whose medical problems are well controlled but are not regularly active beyond routine walking.  
4. Vulnerable
While not dependent on others for daily help, often symptoms limit activities. A common complaint is being 'slowed up' and/or being tired during the day.  
5. Mildly frail
People often have more evident slowing and need help with high-order IADLs. Typically, mild frailty progressively impairs shopping and walking outside alone, meal preparation and housework.

BBC London posts a video where someone injured by an e-bike rider (type of e-bike, whether legal or illegal, unspecified) says the danger from e-bikes is greater than cars. No stats presented to show that this is demonstrably false. The BBC's shoddy reporting is leading to more dangerous roads.
