When wanting to safely cycle to work gets really out of hand.

Stockport and Manchester.
I think you've missed the point completely.

What is it then, legally speaking? Because I'll be surprised if it has any lawful right to be using the footway.

Counterpoint: you've missed the point! People should not have to walk in the road to avoid a delivery bot.

Remember when Naomi Wolf was absolutely destroyed on live radio for a much more obscure error? Admittedly one she'd written a whole book about, but still.

Were the washing machines blocking the pavement while they worked?

Ooh wait I know this one.

Like reverse tapas in Granada.

Second: in Reddish, the footpath-only section of Arthur Street is proposed to be made shared use and the lighting columns moved out of the path, increasing permeability for neighbouring streets.

Deadline also 14 December.

They're on 102(!) lists – overwhelmingly negative ones – which tells you everything about their grasp of social media.

I would subscribe but it's rather a short list.

And yet people still keep driving here and moaning about the traffic in the MEN.

An unexpected return of The Vagina Monologues to the West End?

One of the most reliable ways to reduce road congestion is to remove the need to drive. And yet!
