We need a massive rethink on the prevailing attitudes around cycling. It needs to be anti social to be anti cycling. The climate depends on it, local pollution levels depend on it, children’s safety is depends on it.

Beef emits 31 times more CO₂ per calorie of food than tofu does. By cooking so many cows, humans are cooking themselves, too. Forgoing steaks may be one of the most efficient ways to reduce our carbon footprint econ.st/3YaaEXE

Ciaran Jenkins dissects Rishi Sunak's claims and finds it wanting. This is Grade A humiliation.


WHAT A TOSSER What the fuck do all the COP commitments matter when you’re desperate to win an election. NO MORALS

Talking about freedom, sat in Margaret Thatcher’s old Rover. Earlier I spoke to @Telegraph about how important cars are for families to live their lives. It’s something anti-motorist Labour just don’t seem to get. And it’s why I’m reviewing anti-car schemes across the country.

Our council leader is trying to solve diabetes, hypertension & heart disease with a new cricket pitch on a nature reserve. 😂 He might like to know there’s one next door! Meanwhile, he can’t organise a single new cycling path, route or safety feature to truly improve health.

Typical from the Green Party. They want to protect and preserve all of this burnt out dilapidation & hard standing, whilst the kids of Southall go without the cricket pitches that were there since the 60’s. Sports and rewilding across & expanded site. Both a part of the plan.

Oh man, not Spurs. 😩

EXCL: Tottenham are now on the verge of reaching an agreement with David Raya on personal terms. Long term contract, almost agreed after positive talks. 🚨⚪️ #THFC Raya, open to Spurs move but club to club talks will be crucial. £40m fee asked by Brentford, considered too high.

What a horrible person Braverman is. That is a disgrace. Hurry up election…

Suella Braverman - "I'll miss Caroline Lucus' doom-mongering when she leaves this house." 😬



“Cyclists should” bingo - house! 🙄

Should cyclists have registration plates?



Scary stuff.

This is so unusual. That's a *huge* amount of energy being transferred to the atmosphere. Expect extreme temperature and storm records. Just the top few metres of our oceans store as much energy as the entirety of our atmosphere. I'm very concerned for later this year into 2024.



One of the best things I saw as a child. Mesmerising. Still the best save I’ve ever seen.

On This Day 1970 One of the all time iconic sporting moments, brilliantly described by BBC commentator David Coleman. Gordon Banks unbelievable save from Pele’s header in England’s 1-0 defeat by Brazil. #Banks #Pele #WorldCup70 #England #Brazil



Saw a guy in Brentford in a QPR top yesterday. That’s a rare thing. If he was at a bus stop I would have taken a photo.


No no no, all Danish players in the premier league need to join via the Brentford portal. It’s the law.

Manchester United are interested in Danish forward Rasmus Højlund. 🇩🇰 [via @skysports_sheth].



Cycled through Ealing, past the @EalingCouncil town hall, with my 12yo daughter today. Talk about hostile! With no cycling infrastructure, it’s horrific. When will you actually do something to improve it @_petermason @deirdrecostigan ? Imagine facing that as a 12yo 👇

Spent the afternoon at @CoalDropsYard - surely the best place to shop and chill in London? The shops, public realm & architecture are outstanding! 👏👏👏


Nearly every day since then I’ve cycled, and nearly every day I am subjected to dangerous driving. Pollution, safety, climate - all neglected for another 2 years. I still find the resistance to it bizarre.

Two years ago today approx 1,250 people walked to Ealing Town Hall to demand removal of Ealing's LTNs, with campaigns citing pollution as as major concern. They were successful, but today, we don't hear concerns about traffic volumes road safety OR pollution from the organisers.



Who is this dinosaur on the @bbc5live phone in @NickyAACampbell - terrible boss no doubt!


I think @_petermason and @deirdrecostigan should take heed of this when making future decisions about @WarrenFarmNR and active travel in the borough. Build a worthwhile legacy, not a career that harms our environment. 🙏

⁦.@BillClinton⁩ saying he wished John Hume and David Trimble had lived to see today. ‘They did something they knew would damage them politically but I think both would say “I’m glad we did that” Some things are more important than a general election’.

The Warehouse, at 206 S. Jefferson St., received a preliminary landmark recommendation from the Commission on Chicago Landmarks today. From 1977 to 1982, the three-story West Loop building served as the dance club where House music was born, led by pioneering DJ Frankie Knuckles.
