In a world of disaster capitalism, be a rebel: ride a bicycle and buy your clothes 2ndhand from charity shops.

Also, all the best people have trees in their bio.
Now tell me, where will your next bike ride be?

Hmm. I have a plugin that reshares older content from WillCycle.com to the WillCycle FB page. It can share to other platforms, too, but is bloody expensive, while the FB sharing is free.
Just signed up for a free service that creates an RSS feed for a FB page.

And this is why Zack Polanski is doing so well. Politics and our country would benefit immensely from vaguely human politicians who have ideas, discuss them and believe in them. Be the change you want to see...
If, when being interviewed, politicians just spoke normally, not repeating the same scripted response over and over again, we'd hate them a little less. Not a lot, but a little bit.

Finally got round to reporting that Range Rover idiot from yesterday. The 2 drain covers made it super easy to calculate the exact gap he gave me: 19 cm!

Because they totally CHOOSE to live in hotels with no facilities nearby and to get medical appointments 250 miles away? So this will be essentially a ban on medical appointments for many asylum seekers. More intentional cruelty towards refugees from our government. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

The ban is set to come in February and any exemptions will have to be signed off by the Home Office.

Have you ever seen a bike lane sweeper - pulled behind a bike?

Volunteers in Kirkland have a new tool that attaches to the back of an e-bike. It's good for protected bike lanes, sidewalks, and narrow trails.

In Europe, a division is emerging: the south and south east grow drier, including parts of the UK. Meanwhile, the North and North East, including parts of the UK, are growing wetter:

Many of the presenters of #r4today top up their huge salaries from the BBC by writing columns for billionaire right-wing owners of the British press. They then are allowed by the hierarchy at the corporation to review the very same papers they write for. You don't bite the hand that feeds you.

Daisy Cooper, Lib Dem: ... The Prime Minister is absolutely right to request that Reform UK conducts an investigation into pro-Russian bribes. Will he also commission a second Russia report into Russian interference in our democracy? ...

Of course it's a frigging Range Rover that gave me this very close pass, accelerating hard. Later, I filtered past him in traffic, and simply pointed out my camera. A short while later, I was waiting at a traffic light, and the left lane started moving, so he came past and called me a tosser.

Once more, for those at the back who yet again weren't paying attention:
Ebike = e-assisted (which cuts off at 15.5mph) and has a motor of max 250w

E-moto = any electric bike faster or more powerful than that

It's really not difficult to tell the difference.

Fewer workers. Fewer international students. More people leaving.

A "step in the right direction" according to the PM.

Impossible to take PM/govt seriously on growth if they are deliberately reducing it (and making the fiscal position worse) *as a matter of policy*.
