This is also nonsense. There are bus lanes on Park Lane (*in addition to* lanes for private motor traffic) that black cabs can use.

"To do all that, I needed to be able to get about," he wrote. "I needed to be able to meet people, make deals, go campaigning, chivvy politicians into action. I needed black cabs and roads they could get down. And I needed to be able to get home at the end of the day without spending an hour stuck in a single lane of traffic on Park Lane.

it also looks like his left glove has been removed from the original AP shot, for some bizarre reason (he’s wearing two gloves in that photo)

Meanwhile councils slap these up on thousands of identical footways across the land and suddenly this outrageous lawbreaking is endorsed. What does that tell you

Harborne's exact wording is "we need to mitigate the effects of carbon emissions" rather than "we need to reduce our carbon emissions" which is extremely telling

And then there is climate change. We need to mitigate the effects of carbon emissions on our climate and we can do this with the right investments in key technologies.

Just a quick glance at this guy’s timeline is, erm, revealing

I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to do here, but whatever it is, you're not very good at it

Does this strike you as the response of someone who thinks Lutnick was (as in your representation) "a solid dude hanging on Epstein's island"

Meanwhile, in the safest country for cycling in the world

An entirely typical scene of cycling in an ordinary Dutch city, where helmet use is to all intents and purposes non-existent, and there aren't scientifically illiterate arguments comparing helmet use to seatbelt wearing

Another version of this is Shabana Mahmood’s incoherent claim that the people (accurately) attacking her immigration policies for aping Reform are *the actual racists*

Mahmood told the comedian Matt Forde’s The Political Party podcast at the Duchess theatre, London, that claims she was chasing Reform votes were “just a way of delegitimising the point of view that I bring to the table”.

She told Forde there was an aspect of racism to the claims. “I do think there is that element of it, which is: ‘How dare you, a brown woman, say a thing that we white liberals think you’re not allowed to say?’ Well I’m saying it.”

Correction, it is entirely accurate, because the Sodha piece does indeed use Arday as a prop to swerve wildly into grievances about gender ideology. Read it.

Excerpt from Sonia Sodha's Times article about Jason Arday. "Unfortunately this is now ingrained in some chunks of modern academia, places where midwitted groupthink is prized and people parrot idiotic ideologies in order to remain in with their mates. Of course it doesn’t make any difference to women if men are permitted to self-identify into their changing rooms and rape crisis centres! Those women sticking up for their rights are such transphobic bigots!"

Badenoch being an absolute disgrace, again. If you haven't "heard anything" about the attacker why on earth are you amplifying far right talking points? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The Conservative leader, Kemi Badenoch, said she was “absolutely horrified” by the attack in Belfast.
Asked by journalists about the incident which took place on Monday night, she said she had seen “grainy images” of the incident.
She added: “I’m absolutely horrified.
“I haven’t heard anything about who the attacker might have been, but I think a lot of people will start wondering yet again, is this someone who should not have been in our country? Have there been failings around our borders?"

The Conservative vote share in the borough of Westminster actually went down by 5%. They gained control primarily due to Labour losing votes to the Greens.

Heat pump will be the gamechanger. Ours does all our hot water and central heating, and we are basically “even” for April so far. (Although we do also have a 10kwh battery to smooth out demand )

UK wind/gas energy mix today (gas in blue). Boggles the mind how the Tories have now decided this is a bad idea, in the context of a gas price shock
