OMG I so want to see Farage being chased around Clackton by a small army of folks dragging wheelie bins, asking if he would like to "get in the bin"

Nigel Farage has done probably the dumbest thing in UK politics ever. His statements have taken him from ' It's none of your business' to this election is all about my 5 million quid and various other sources of money, at lightning speed. So stupid.

On my way, Clacton.

At least with only Binface standing against Farage we can all unite behind laughing at Farage. He will not like that experience one little bit.

Farage says that being a MEP cost him a lot of money. I thought it was part of the "European gravy train" he must have been doing it wrong. Or maybe he's a lying .....

In Malmo, the uncompromisingly ambitious builder-developer ETC Bygg has achieved something revolutionary. This here is a building made from straw: 12 storeys, 38 meters tall, with a fully timber structure (including core), wrapped in EcoCocon's straw panel external wall system.

Listening to Tony Blair being interviewed by John Sopel and I can only conclude that Blair no longer lives in the same world as the rest of us. In the pocket of the tech bros and the oil industry too.

Any country that has anti jaywalking laws can not consider itself to be a people friendly country. And yes I include Denmark in this. They really should know better. They should also allow cyclists to turn right on red lights.

Let it be clear: you are wanted here.

Another reason if you needed it to question exactly where Starmer's morality lies.

JK Rowling is now represented by a trans person in the Scottish parliament. Absolutely incredible.

First move for the nationalised GWR ought to be to allow passengers travelling between Newport and Bridgend to use TfW's tap and go ticketing system. Vital for modal shift.

I agree.

There are many differences between cycling in the UK and in Denmark. In Denmark you have to be much more aware of other cyclists and keep checking over your shoulder. In the UK it was rare that I would be sharing a cycle lane with anyone else.

This is a big difference between where I live now and when I used to live in the UK. In Denmark I just jump on the bike put the destination into google maps and go. I the UK a new route would need to be researched and potentially dangerous sections identified and an alternative found.

Why is it that everytime I read something about Urban Transport in Leeds it's so obvious that the story has been placed in order to undermine the Mayor Tracey Brabin? Treasury and DfT seem very keen to say you're not getting Trams 'cos Tracey was just too eager to get going.

Will I tell you one thing I've noticed about cycling in Copenhagen. I don't pay any attention to the traffic at all. Not even a little bit, they're only obstacles to be negotiated at junctions as they wait stationary to turn right.

Nigel Farage saying horrific things on Cameo for money is nothing new, our media....who would come down on any other political figure like a ton of bricks for this, choose to ignore it. Claire Byrne here, showing how it should be done.

Scotrail have announced a fleet of refurbished class 222 trains to replace their ageing HSTs. Good to see the HSTs go but Scotrail accepting another refurbished fleet is not a good look for their Premier intercity routes.

The cursed M8 motorway that blights Glasgow could be removed if enough people say that’s what they want! Respond to the consultation via the guidance here! removethem8.org.uk

Well the contrast between today's 2 rugby matches couldn't be starker. Murrayfield saw a display of running rugby with plenty of invention on both sides. Whereas Rome very much wasn't.

Just saw a guy jaywalk across H.C.Andersen Blvd. He's now my new hero, Copenhagen can't claim to be a truly walkable city until jaywalking laws are repealed and speed limits reduced.

Imagine the radical idea to build homes for people to rent built by your local council. (Reminder that the major home builders will never build enough homes to satisfy need)

Just heard some one descibe the US regime as "fossil fuelled fascism"

First past the post looks increasingly ridiculous. Electoral reform is needed to deliver government's that reflect the views of the electorate.

Saw this and thought that looks a bit too big for Campbeltown and then realised it's not the one I know.🤣

Just read a piece where someone described a new carpark in central Cardiff as "impressive". FFS what the hell are you thinking about the last thing Cardiff needs is another car park just as capacity on the metro is increased. Every car park is dismal.

It's always good to see what is happening in other countries especially for anyone even remotely interested in urbanisim and mobility. @railnatter.uk www.youtube.com/watch?v=pgOG...

I see this and ask why giving out a message of hope should be something voters shouldn't expect from a progressive party. Why shouldn't progressive politics be able to express itself by telling people that life can and should be better? Go on Democrats excite us with a message of hope.

AI slop alert! @parismarx.com

Copenhagen town hall square, Denmark right now. Massive solidarity with Greenland demonstrations. Source: dr.dk

Help! Now we've settled in a little it's time ti think about buying a bike. The problem is the bike scene in Copenhagen is so different. So what's a good brand? What should I be looking for? I want to use it for everything but a cargo bike would be overkill. Help!

More money going to the trump family account!

It's amazing how some people see a vague announcement by government that sets no firm timelines and no significant investment commitment from treasury as good news. Meanwhile in a proper country www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwAn...

Why are the westminister labour government briefing against Tracey Brabin? If I were her I would be drafting my resignation from the Labour Party. The whole of the north of england deserve better from this government. (and yes the Leeds trams are cancelled again) inews.co.uk/news/leeds-t...

Indonesia can block X, why can't the UK and the rest of Europe?

"Elon Musk Decides Generating Child Sexual Images Should Be A Premium Feature" Fixed it for you @theguardian.com

The best time to get off X was when Musk took over twitter. The second best time is now. Get off X

Back here again but this time for good!

Labour and their continuing quest to be the most disgusting party in UK politics.

John Swinney calls Nigel Farage a Racist. It's about time for leaders of all the other parties start calling him a racist too.

Experiencing this myself at the moment!

Saw a man wearing a "Make America Great Again" in M&S yesterday. It's good to know where the racist idiot is in any environment.

And he's absolutely right!

If you've stuck with Labour through thick and thin, this really should be your wake up call. Get out! Leave and never come back.

One of the joys of life in Copenhagen is sitting having breakfast while elegantly dressed Danes wizz by.

Maybe if the government she is part of wasn't so intent on pursuing transphobic policies then maybe this campaign might have some merit. But until @charlotte2153.bsky.social us prepared to call for real change from the Labour leadership then it's pointless froth. They ought to be ashamed.

Back here again!

I have a deep dislike of airports. Nothing makes you feel more dehumanised. Train stations on the other hand fill me full of possibilities. Anyway off to Copenhagen for a very quick trip to sort out schools for the kiddo.
