The face of a man who has hopefully finally realised what sucking up to a senile old man telling war stories of wars that never happened means for everyone long term. Throwing away democracy, human rights, people so we can appease an omnibankrupt narcissist out for revenge. We're better than this.

There's a wrong way and a right way to report this

Once upon a time I came up against this. Thankfully no sign of someone driving the wrong way. I once experienced someone do this on the A666 in Bolton as they were fleeing from the police.

As we enter year three of the three day special operation I can't help but wonder if I could get away with such failure to deliver on a promise in my career.

They managed to do a slightly better job with this sign as opposed to the shambles on the northbound. Jul 2023 vs Sep 2025.

From this day in 2017.

How is this not a massive trip hazard?

At the risk of startin to soond like one o'em, there was something better about the internet when it was all niche with making flash videos about badgers and not full blown Nazis telling you to overthrow your elected, even if rubbish, government. There's nothing ragebait capitalism can't ruin...

@thetransportguy.bsky.social and @showmeasign.online you two might enjoy this slightly odd sign simply pointing the A12 from Southwold in Suffolk: www.google.com/maps/@52.328...

Well behaved women seldom make history.

Oh how I wish the boundary sign was still one of these! I so wanted to nick one of these, or Rochdale's, as a child! flic.kr/p/22hmP92

Somehow this one still survives despite repeat patching exercises.

The more you to refuse to hear my voice the louder I will sing.

Thatcher Milk Snatcher move over. We're in the age of Starmer Fascist Charmer.

Everyone needs a hobby, or two, I guess.

You try putting in a central reservation in the UK like this and all the bin lorry enthusiasts and "I ain't cutting no grass" beancounters turn up to complain.

A patterny sky, Darwen Tower, hills, a bus, a pylon, and a road sign. You'll need to have your OSA pr0n licence for this one, Bryn...

My potato camera skills on show here but it was hard to be a roadgeek with a bunch of college students on a trip to New York 20 years ago. Don't complain about our parking signs being incomprehensible ever again...

Simister DCO granted. Some of you will vehemently disagree, but sorting this junction out is critical; any problem here immediately spills into every local road. TfGM and LAs need to start putting in bus and cycle priority on roads like A56, A576, and A665 to discourage the induced demand risk. 1/

youtu.be/zte_vg0D8Z4?... Horwich gets a mention and it ISN'T myself or @walkridegm.org.uk complaining about Chorley New Road!

I love me some Stop signs.

I have ranted a lot recently, because above all else all this far right stuff... it actually makes me a bit sad to think for some people this is all they have in their life. Hatred, anger, bitterness. So I am in the pub with wonderful happy people, because wonderful happy people will always win.

I think this is the last remnant of the old brown and orange (sun faded sign!) parking guidance experiment in Manchester unless that sign is still pointing under the GMEX or whatever it's called this week. Bolton still has a couple hanging on mind.

Peter O'Hanrahanrahan fact reporting right there.

The evolution of an advance direction sign...

Route Confirmation Signs (RCS) on the northbound M61 between J3 and J9. None mention the M6, and they're all of differing vintages.

Many Labour MPs will have been active in fighting the far right for their whole lives. Number 10's unwillingness to condemn racism and extremism will not help the PM's shaky position.

Maybe they should though. Why do we keep making excuses for, well, jerks and other tossers? Politicians presumably avoid holding others accountable when they are accountable for many things themselves and fear the scrutiny. Crap creates crap. Demand better.

cool hack: if a headline contains the words "sources say" you can completely dismiss it.

Peter Kyle. "If you disagree with me you're a paedo", that Peter Kyle? No wonder he's alright with Tommy "if you disagree with me you're a paedo" Robinson.

youtu.be/X2eWUTdn554?... One of my late dad's favourite songs.

Settle an argument that nobody is having for me? What was worse: Albion Market or Eldorado?

From a 1969 film on Irish Plantation towns; a screenshot of Portlaoise with a fine old style Irish traffic direction sign. #ireland @showmeasign.online @roads.org.uk @sabre-roads.org.uk

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... And you still think Reform are a serious party?

Show love for your country by drunkenly pissing on it in a botched attempt to mark territory. #VizTopTips

But tell me more about how we need a pogrom against "boys in dresses" to stop this.

Correcti. If you have Nazis unafraid to be Nazis in public that is a political failure and not a social one. Our useless and spineless political "leadership" has enabled their growth. Normal people don't support Nazis. Stop trying to "legitimate concern" them, that didn't work in 1933 either.

This has utterly bombed in the view stakes so if you haven't watched it feel free to do so.

The IDF (not *that* one) doing good work.

This is exactly why I don't do flat packs.

One principle for Nigel, another for us.

The William J. LePetomane Thruway?! What will that asshole think of next? Has anybody got a dime? Somebody's gotta go back and get a shitload of dimes!

youtu.be/SML5Wxw8U54 I try and avoid doing the predictable memes and ask instead can it be made to look and function a bit more neatly?

The M65 is starting to show its age a bit now. It'll be 28 years since J1a-6 opened this time around. Yikes.

I've edited a video at least. It'll be out tomorrow.

The genie is out the bottle, since Jan 6th and Trump pardoning an armed uprising in his national capital, it is now seen as perfectly normal to do things like this. The more you appease the violence of the far-right, the more violent *everybody* will become.

Oh, and: September 11th is always a good day to bury bad news if you're the Labour party.

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... My son has a hyphenated surname because I don't like the connotations of male dominated naming conventions. It ruffled a lot of feathers elsewhere but funnily enough not with my late dad, because he wasn't a patriarchal dickhead. Well done SA, this'll upset M*sk!
