I've had enough of listening. Time for action on low traffic. My letter in the Oxford Times today

Thanks to the lobbying of thousands of parents, including our #SaveOurChildrensRights campaign, the mood over the future of #EHCPs seems to have shifted. Keep up the great work!

Green membership across Great Britain has now overtaken the Lib Dems. @greenparty.org.uk passed 78,000 last night. @scottishgreens.org have 7,800, producing a total of 85,800. Last month, the Lib Dems told the BBC they had 83,174: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Joined the first #Cambridge @kidicalmass.bsky.social this morning and those still-a-little-wobbly yellow legs were grinning all the way around. Thanks to the organisers and the patient folks who let us take up the sunny streets for a bit. #kidsonbikes #kidicalmass @camcycle.bsky.social

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 📈 The Green Party has just hit 75,000 members! 💚 There's no time to waste. Join the Green Party today ⤵️

We did a Kidical Mass in Bath this afternoon, so much enthusiasm from the pedallers and pedestrians. Coinciding with the Jane Austin Festival added some extra colour! 👒🌞🚴‍♀️

Best way to spend a Saturday: riding through town with a bunch of kids singing "say hey, ho, stinky cars have got to go!" @thewaroncars.bsky.social @tomflood.bsky.social #KidicalMass

Bath's streets are better when filled with bikes, trikes and laughter! 👏 #KidicalMass #SafeStreetsNow

Stadium application decision may be delayed? Seems like there could yet be another delay in deciding on the planning application for a new permanent rugby stadium on Bath Rec. Green councillor for Lambridge ward, Joanna Wright, has written an open letter to Council Leader, Cllr Kevin Guy and…

A parenting win.

Children are ***82%*** more likely to be killed when hit by an SUV than by a regular passenger car. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

“These oversized vehicles are not just swallowing our public space, they’re also far more dangerous, especially for children.” www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Would love a Paris-style vote on this in Bath - absolutely hate how big SUVs are. No need for cars to be this big - more danger and more damage to roads & enviro @bathnesgreens.org.uk @saskiaheijltjes.bsky.social @bathprestrust.bsky.social @bathlabour.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Israel have bombed another hospital. Waited for medics to arrive - and then bombed again. Britain keeps selling arms to this genocidal regime. Starmer & Lammy say they're "horrified". They condemn. But they do nothing. All the war criminals must face justice.

Motornormativity by Stenaline @ianwalker.bsky.social Kids go free, but only if you travel by car... And yes, they do have a 'rail and sail' deal but it's not nearly as good as this offer. I have asked them to reconsider their offers. @flightfreeuk.bsky.social - interesting for you too!

Bath’s streets are better when filled with bikes and laughter! 💚 Join our next Kidical Mass family cycle ride at 2pm on Sat 13 September (starting at Orange Grove). Together we’ll celebrate cycling, community, and the call for safer streets for children. www.facebook.com/events/79625...

As our kids go #BackToSchool, never forget that we ARE the traffic that we’re afraid of. If more kids walked, biked or rode transit to school, it would erase a massive number of car trips each day, and our kids would be safer, healthier and better at school. HT Ian Lockwood. Spread the word.

During this time, using an internal combustion vehicle has become cheaper, and electric vehicle use has increased. Leading to more pollution and road wear. Why have successive chancellors pandered to the motoring lobby and not addressed this funding black hole? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Kidical Mass is a protest. A very joyful one, but still a protest. This makes it very tricky to get public liability insurance. Please donate to our crowdfunder to support Kidical Mass rides in over 50 UK towns and most importantly get new groups started 🚲🥳📢 www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/km-insurance

How are we still having this conversation at a time of huge inequality? 4 million children living in poverty. Billionaire wealth has doubled. And these people dare to say "Won't someone think of the billionaires?" Tax. The. Rich.

🚲 Kidical Mass is growing fast – now 50+ groups across the UK! We’ve launched a crowdfunder to continue to provide public liability & volunteer insurance for all KM groups in the UK. Target: £2,522. Please donate! 👉 www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/km-insurance #KidicalMass #SafeStreetsNow

On-street bicycle lift in Nijmegen 😍 Nijmegen is a bit hilly so this lift allows people on foot and on wheels to avoid the climb from the quay side to the centre of town.

The funniest thing during our week cycling in Leiden was when we saw a sign saying "poor road surface ahead" (aimed at cyclists). The couple of tree roots on the path were a joke compared to the state of many UK cycle paths 🤣😭

I grew up in the Netherlands and this kind of infrastructure still blows me away. This is a suburb of Leiden, built in the 70s, with beautiful cycle paths in green corridors through the entire area 👌 Ps. Paths are well lit after dark too btw.

Exciting news!!! We've been shortlisted for an award!! The "Cycling Media of the Year 2025" award no less! It's such an honour to be mentioned in the same space as some of the biggest names in the industry ☺️ If you'd like to vote for us - you can do so here: bikebizawards.com/vote/ #cycling

This is the political video I've been waiting to see. I have no party affiliations, but if I were in the Greens, I would vote for @zackpolanski.bsky.social

If there's no dropped kerb and/or racks are full I am parking my cargo bike on the street. Cannot make up my mind about parking in a designated bay or not. Sometimes there's a motorbike in this space so I park next to it.

Lidl wants to build a second superstore in Bath, near where I live and the ward I represent. Here's the latest: councillorsaskia.wordpress.com/2025/07/20/g...

"This is a key link in our local active travel network, but it’s completely closed off to anyone who can’t manage stairs. That’s not acceptable in 2025. If we want to be serious about inclusion, we have to fix barriers like this.” councillorsaskia.wordpress.com/2025/07/22/c...

🚨 RIGHT NOW opposite Labour Party HQ in London. We’ve turned their street into Jabaliya camp in Gaza. A genocide is happening, but the Labour government is supplying weapons, intelligence and diplomatic cover to the perpetrator. Protesting this is not terrorism.

Amazing to be able to cycle home from a night out this safely (though still gets a bit dodgy after I leave the seafront). [Double speed, obviously]

On August 1st, vote for a leader who’ll take on Reform. Challenge this Labour government. And take the fight to the power and wealth they seek to protect. It’s time for bold leadership. #BackZack

Thanks for coming to Bath @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @elliechowns.bsky.social ! And thanks to @robbryher.bsky.social for the live posts. Ps. My vote is going to Zack 💚

How about providing transport alternatives rather than subsidising fuel costs for people who can pay £800 a month to rent their Land Rovers?
