1977: (an actual question) But what about the car commuter from Bromley to central London with nowhere to park? www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAbJ...

The ban is right. I question where else repeated offending attracts mitigation like this. “Exceptional hardship” is lived daily by crash victims and bereaved families. My sympathy will always be with them—not the habitual road offender. Should we remove this provision? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Found the country motto.

So just weeks after getting rid of its only trans reporter (me), PinkNews commissions an op-ed from Wes Streeting. Good grief...

Soon none of this will matter because it will be too late to change direction and see results before the next election. Soon may even have already passed.

Got it, never send a draft of anything to anyone.

I believe the term is gaslighting.

Is it because of what he says and what he does?

It does look like a mansion. I was expecting a few townhouses knocked through to really rub in how insane this is.

On the fuel duty cut, I'm sick of crises being used as cover for what politicians really want to do anyway. This country has been in almost permanent crisis since I was born. I think politicians quite like it that way.

"I have two Microsoft Outlooks and neither of them are working". Hard relate.

"Is that the magic one?" asks the revenue protection officer scanning my watch. ✨

Convoluted GPS ticketing trial scrapped. Good. www.railmagazine.com/news/governm...

Government's new transport strategy has been published, including publication of long long delayed local transport plan guidance. Very much Louise Haigh's thing but hopefully will still create change on the ground. www.gov.uk/government/n...

The Labour government is committed to kicking disabled people in the face until morale improves.

I'm all for putting things in accesable formats, but old web pages are turning into lost media. PDF has endured for archiving. www.economist.com/business/202...

Shouldn't use the word addiction unless you definitely mean it. If someone is prone to addiction they will find something to be addicted to.

Seen my first local government website with an "AI chatbot". It could not answer my question.

You can't publish this on 1 April, even this late in the day.

Can see why, in the period of lifetime, I get hayfever noticeably earlier in the year.

Convenient ticketing proves popular. www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/ove...

Not sure I can face this tediousness for the rest of my life. The benefits of the EU are found by joining the EU.

Yes and yes, hopefully.

Nobody is repeatedly travelling 70 miles as a hate tourist just for the fun of it. Where is the money coming from and how do we stop it?

The government has cancelled rollout of railway electrification, cancelled even the modest railway reopening plans of the last government and makes cities jump through hoops for no-trams.

66 years later and, well, little has changed. #newtowns

Treasury should just be honest and give a flat 'no' to more projects rather than wasting time and money with busywork. www.railmagazine.com/news/west-yo...

This sounds convoluted. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

👀 Keith Prince won't be standing in May in any of the seats in the Romford side of Havering.

There will be no rationing until after the local elections in May.

Love and solidarity to all trans folk this Trans Day of Visibility and every day, whether or not you feel able to be visible. I'm commemorating with the brilliant Kae Tempest's latest album which gives me goosebumps youtube.com/playlist?lis...

For a fun* day out this weekend I'm contemplating getting the train to Purfleet and walking along the river to where the new Superloop SL12 picks up (a Thameside industrial estate).

Peak threaten me with a good time

If they could have picked their users we would not be them.

Local man confirmed a fool.

Possibly still better than pothole and flytipping drones or whatever it was last year.

They have a postal address?

Pedestrianised street caused delivery delays of up to four days. Did it, aye? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Meanwhile, in London, I'm wondering if my family plot could be converted into a studio apartment.
