I have been on holiday for a day and it's glorious. I am on holiday for another week now, in which I will be cycling up mountains then lounging about by swimming pools reading books with alcoholic beverages within easy reach. This will also be glorious. Longest holiday for over a year. Glorious.

Liar. Small boat crossings peaked under Johnson in 2022 reaching 46,000 in 2022. In current year they are 18,565 and falling. Also prior to Boris Johnson's Brexit there were none.
It's a disaster, and it can all be traced to
Labour ideology. Burnham has no mandate
from the people. He has no real ideas, and
no plan,

"The Bank of England was set up by Tony Blair" It's easy to forget that Tony Blair had been in power since 1694 when the Bank of England was founded. Good job Brain of Britain Liz Truss is here to remind us.

Good. Now arrest those who were with him for conspiracy, and then arrest those who tried to set fire to a hotel for arson. And then proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation. Which is what you are if you use violence for political ends. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

On Friday, the ‘Women Changing Cities’ book tour reached its 14th nation: Hungary. And what a great way to mark the occasion, with two presentations in Budapest in a single day: That morning, a keynote at the Cycling Without Age Summit. That evening, an EU Mobility Week event with the municipality.

Gotta agree with the classic points. Cyclists are indeed bad for the economy.
A poster reading "CYCLING IS BAD FOR THE ECONOMY" with a picture of a bicycle underneath it. 
The main paragraphs read "A cyclist is a disaster for the country's economy - He does not buy the car & does not take a car loan - Does not buy car insurance - Does not buy Fuel - Does not send his car for servicing & repairs - Does not use paid Parking - Does not become Obese Yes,,....and well, damn it!! Healthy people are not needed for economy. They do not buy drugs. They do not go to Hospitals & Doctors. They add nothing to country's GDP. On the contrary, every new fast food outlet creates at least 30 jobs - 10 Cardiologists, 10 Dentists, 10 weight loss experts apart from people working in the outlet. Choose wisely: A Cyclist or a KFC ? Worth thinking about!! PS: Walking is even worse. They do not even buy a bicycle!!"

Great weekend. I am so happy. Some of you know I've had a fairly difficult time over the last couple of years but I'm fighting my way out now. Long weekend in Cumbria, biking, walking, eating and drinking. Lovely. ❤️

What's need is more 3rd party reporting and stiffer sentences. I'm sure the current penalty is only £100, and the plate has to be reported by a police officer. Although a couple of forces accepted photo evidence. Not sure if any currently do.

🤔 Protester Terrorist
Hundreds of protesters, dressed in black and wearing face coverings, blocked roads in the Port of Dover and chanted "stop the boats" on 6 September 2026. There were no arrests.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy8znyzgkjjo?app-referrer=deep-linkPicture from sit-in protest in Parliament Square over the banned group Palestine Action in August 2025 showing middle-aged lady being carried away by police. 522 demonstrators were arrested on suspicion of breaking terrorism laws - more than double the total such arrests in 2024.

The narrow tiled pathway at Goodge Street station is easily one of my favourite visual details on the Underground. Despite its striking appearance, it often goes unnoticed as passengers hurry towards the lifts. Is this the narrowest location on the underground network?
