This is appalling. Another Welsh university has announced that its entire senior leadership has voluntarily refused any pay increase. So for him to claim 'benchmarking' as his excuse is bullshit.

Cycle parking at Cambridge Station. Not many places outside the Netherlands that I've seen this scale of bike parking. 19% of journeys in Cambridge are by bike, despite the infrastructure being far from perfect.

Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.

When there’s an economic emergency, a climate energy, or a security emergency, our leaders take immediate action. The child poverty emergency has been with us for some time now, yet action seems further away than ever.

I think it’s hard to overstate the anger in parts of Wales that everything seems to be on the table with regards to saving steel making in Scunthorpe whereas this seemingly wasn’t the case for Port Talbot. Just 12 months till the Senedd election.

It's a system that the Treasury "chooses" to use. That is the issue. Also, the aim of the money was to make up the shortfall for public sector orgs. The chosen system does that in England, but not in Wales. I think that is worthy of outrage.

I cycle a lot but misogynist abuse on roads and anxieties about poor social safety on off-road routes (esp in the dark/on my own) mean that I am forced to drive some journeys that I should be able to easily cycle. Those planning local cycle networks must build routes that are truly accessible.

UK, 2025: a country where police break into a place of worship and arrest those inside who are having a meeting and might be planning a non-violent action. The right to peaceful protest is an essential part of a healthy democracy. Governments who crack down on it are governments to be very wary of.
