Comparing this with @a38cycleway.bsky.social shows how much more cycling infra investment is needed in Birmingham. Circa 4 times more people are cycling in Manchester. Andy Burnham with Chris Boardman & Sarah Storey have been ambitious and are delivering, same needed here. @brumgreens.bsky.social

The temperature in central the Netherlands over the past 320 years. Clearly shows that we're already well over 2 degrees of warming here. This year is heading for 11.5°C again. This coming Monday and Tuesday, we'll even have that average, in December...

“Moving to a situation where cars are not considered the fastest and most convenient mode of transportation will take ambition and imagination. But the alternative is a very expensive dependency, which clogs up the UK economy.” theconversation.com/how-the-uks-...

Don't go to The Bike Foundry in Birmingham to take your worn tyres and inner tubes for them to recycle them for 'free' because you will end up buying a beautiful second hand bike!!!🤦‍♂️🤣🚲 #N+1

Depressing. #BoycottEwood #VenkysOut #Rovers Blackburn Rovers abandonment a sorry embarrassment Sheffield Wednesday fans can sympathise with share.google/b4jtkFdO0Rjx...

Giving a peace prize to the man that armed war criminals and a genocide has to be the all time low for 'sport'. #Fifa

Chapel St East now open! 😍🚶‍♀️👨‍🦽‍➡️🛴🚲🚌🚛

Holy moly - Welsh Government have approved side-road zebras! www.gov.wales/written-stat...

Since 2011 fuel duty freeze has cost the Treasury a whopping £133bn and added to yet more climate emissions. Freezing it yet again is reckless & irresponsible #budget2025

Raiding the Warm Homes Plan to find the money for a one-off cut to energy bills is utterly perverse when the Plan exists precisely to insulate homes & thus keep bills lower in perpetuity- this simply isn’t serious #budget2025

Amazing to be here @expertcitizens.bsky.social #NationalInsightAwards 🙌 Brilliantly kicked off by Surfing Sofas aka Justin Brown #ExpertCitizens

The real BBC bias story, narrated by Anna Ford

'Lord Dubs told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “There is a proper case for children, there is a proper case for family reunion when there are children who are on their own,” and he said that “to use children as a weapon as the home secretary is doing I think is a shabby thing”'

Great British Railways!? 👇

Today’s episode of “there is a better way.” Helsinki went a full year without a car-related fatality. For the 90th million time, we ask-why not here? Why can’t we have the healthy, safe, secure, efficient, civilized goods others have: schools free of mass shootings, safe sidewalks, health care…

More over Troy and Ireland, Amir Al-Ammari is here!! Absolutely scenes in Basra! Think they still have another play off to get through but imagine the happiness and hope given to the nation of Iraq just now! If they do qualify and I was king of the world I'd move the tournament from the US to Iraq!

If you think the Ireland celebrations were big imagine if Iraq finds a winner in the next ten mins against UAE! Just seen a vid of their equaliser and amazing scenes inside the 65k capacity stadium in Basra! Incredible to see a city and people rise out of the ashes of US and UK destruction

Labour MP Olivia Blake tells Shabana Mahmood that her rhetoric about asylum seekers being handed a "golden ticket" is "deeply offensive" and "feeds division" "and will only strengthen Reform not beat them".

A Government of cowards. Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution. They can't get away with this. Join.greenparty.org.uk

The Greens don’t believe providing safe refuge for endangered asylum seekers is an “out-of-control” policy. Nor do we believe making life more difficult for those in need is the way to unify British society. Refugees are welcome.

Every week I get a bit prouder of myself for voting Green at the last election. Even though I was a Labour member at the time! Wish they'd proven me wrong but at every turn Starmer and Labour have ballsed it up. Very hard to achieve TBH. #RefugeesWelcome #AsylumIsNotACrime @greenparty.org.uk

Whoever invented cyclocross has a lot to answer for. Hopefully my son has done his last cross race today (for a good while) and I can sell his bikes! So much faff, time, energy and expense for 40 minutes of sport! and I love all sport! Maybe I'm just allergic to mud.

Is @a38cycleway.bsky.social getting royalties for this clip? 😂 Amazing how the pit area of the old Birmingham Grand Prix motor racing circuit (now Bristol Street Motors car showroom) is featured in a pro cycling edit 😎🚲🔥

This ladies and gentlemen is why we love sport and football. Miraculous. 5 goals in 4 days for Troy Parrott keeps the Irish World Cup dream alive!! The owners, FIFA, EFL, UEFA and Premier League can try and ruin it and steel the magic with their greed but the beautiful game always wins out. Limbs.

"but if you ban cars from my street how will I get a sofa delivered?" Get the delivery guys to park in the loading bay at the end of the street and bring it the short distance from there.

Who wants more walking & cycling paths adjacent to train lines? Like the brilliant new Misbourne Greenway in Buckinghamshire. Kudos to @walkwheelcyclet.bsky.social for delivering this in partnership with Buckinghamshire Council with funding support from DfT & HS2. NB: There is a pub at both ends!

My kids school newsletter tells me there's an International Mens Day?!? Did Trump or Farage insist on this BS? Every bloody day in the history of our species has been a Mens Day!

The #EFL and #SkySports yet again putting fans last by moving Rovers away games away to Ipswich and Norwich to early kick offs! 🤦‍♂️ Putting money first and fan experience last yet again. Just about doable on train but any delays and miss start of game #Rovers #AwayDays #Transport 🔵⚪ @brfcs.bsky.social

If this happens and they continue to cut car fuel prices (approaching two decades without a rise now) then those in any doubt must know that Labour and this government is pro oil, pro billionaires, pro climate change and pro inequality. #VoteGreen #JoinTheGreens @greenparty.org.uk

UNDERSTAND THE ASSIGNMENT!

A reminder about the Transportation Doom Loop 👇

"Paradise" the Birmingham developer of extortionate rental flats amongst other things, have ramped up their sick poppy marketing this year🤦‍♂️ Someone please make them remove the branding asap! @remembrancewatch.bsky.social @birminghamdispatch.bsky.social #PoppyWatch #LestWeForget #ParadiseBirmingham

Love this👇 Jackie J's take on Blackburn Rovers's treatment of their own team and how they then blamed the fans was SO on point! She dismantles Venkys and points out their incompetence here: www.instagram.com/reel/DJ5Grje... #VenkysOut #BoycottEwood #Rovers #ILoveWomensSports #IsSheGay #CoachJackieJ

Magic of the Cup? Not if you've sexist owners who've stopped funding the team resulting in double relegation. Fighting hard though. 3-0 to Bu****y after 34mins. Glad chose to watch this over putting money into our owners pockets #VenkysOut #FACup #Rovers 🔵⚪

God the West Midlands have so much improvement to do when it comes to public transport and active travel. What I've seen today whilst walking and using the train is truly depressing. When will the penny drop with our political and administrative leaders?

Hey #Labour members, Cllrs and MPs! Your PM & leadership have really messed up. When working class Blackburn footy fans (Labour for decades under Barbara Castle & Jack Straw) are singing "Kier Starmer's a wanker" after ten mins away to Coventry you really have lost the country. Jump ship to Greens 👍

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.

❤️seeing e-cargo bike articles in mainstream publications Word is spreading!

This.

Secure cycle parking and free repairs whilst you watch the match at PSG. Any English clubs offers anywhere near the same? Brentford think has best offer? #PSG #PremierLeague #Transport #Football #EFL 🚲⚽🚲⚽🚲⚽🚲⚽🚲

Yes this is so welcome and so long overdue. Horrendous to walk and cycle along or across there. Took this photo in March 2018, shows how much of the wide avenue space is currently given over to large metal boxes, most of which carry just one person. Do the survey Brum!

Actually the moves are widely popular with two-thirds supporting

I support animal rights—do I look like a fucking alpaca?! I’m a woman, and Carole Malone does not speak for me.
