A report on 5 years of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods in East Oxford shows that they have reduced road casualties by over 100. The report by the Coalition for Healthy Streets and Active Travel (CoHSAT) also points to the health benefits of reduced air pollution and performance of Cowley Road shops.

Oxford LTNs 5 years on: Over 100 injuries avoided, cleaner air and shops outperforming the UK - CoHSAT
Oxford’s Cowley and East Oxford Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) have now been in place for about five years[1]. In that time, road casualties have been reduced by over 100, air pollution has been reduced, and Cowley Road shops have outperformed national trends. The LTNs have reduced road casualties both in the LTN areas, and on

Young people sacrificed a great deal for their elders during COVID, find housing unattainably expensive, are being told there are no jobs for them because AI, and are seeing class sizes increase whilst pensioners scream about any changes to pension arrangements. No idea why they're furious.

Hey folks. In total honesty my tour is NOT selling well. I’ve sold 30 tickets in a 400 seater in Birmingham, and not much more elsewhere. If you like musical comedy, if you like standup, then please come see my show! And spread the word! The Rachel Parris Songbook tour starts in Nov! Link in bio! 🎶

Adding a door chain would help! Stayed at York Hull Toad Travelodge and traditional key, no chain or way to secure the door from the inside, plus only one fob-accessed security door which can easily be tailgated is an obvious problem waiting to happen. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

I've done a deep-dive on the Harborne and Delo mega-donations over the weekend, and whether they may have to be handed back From my reading, a lot of unlikely things have to be true at once for the two £36m 'gifts' to be allowed once the (retrospective) Representation of the People Bill becomes law

Why Reform UK Could Be Forced to Hand Back Their £72m Donations From Crypto Billionaires
Christopher Harborne and Ben Delo gave a record £36 million each over the weekend to Nigel Farage's party, but a new law means they may have to take it all back

One of the first "outrageous" claims I saw as Jason Arday's media hounding unfolded was that he ran 30 marathons in 35 days! Wow! What a thing to claim! And the newspapers all suggested there was no evidence he actually did it. Well, they clearly didn't look very hard 🙄 🧵 1/26

We had lessons from/about the Milk Marketing Board when I was in primary school - which triggered the secret ‘Cow Club’ society - publicly referred to only as ‘CC’ - which did precisely nothing except infuriate those who weren’t part of the club.

People think that during the blitz, people just got to use the air raid shelters of central buildings and the tube stations as standard. When they were actually opened after riots that knocked down the locked gates, with capital held as more important than the lives of the poor. Anyway

I have never understood why anger would be the response to your team losing. Surely disappointment, frustration, disbelief, despair… is what you feel. I was really shocked to hear Alan Shearer get angry when commentating on an early England match.

Yes, I pay myself rent in order to avoid tax, but it is coincidentally £1 less than the level at which I would have to declare it under Parliament's transparency rules.

Reform-led Norfolk County Council banning Pride displays and events across the county’s libraries. What we see here is a glimpse at the kind of intolerant and repressive country they would build if ever they formed a government. This then is but a starter. The main course would be even darker.
