infinite dropped kerbs ♾️ you can almost smell the accessibility 🙄

Wirral Labour have (until quite recently) hammered Wirral Greens. We've gone from 1 councillor to 14 in that time 🤷‍♂️

🚨 BREAKING | Greens now have 80,000 members. This is an increase of 10,000 since @zackpolanski.bsky.social won the leadership in a landslide victory (85-15). (Source: @greenparty.org.uk)

Banned driver given another ban. Genius

it's one of those days when you take a detour through Port Sunlight

Good for business. Good for people.

Sir, your pickup truck *almost taking off* when you hit a speed hump at 35mph is nature's way of telling you to *slow down*

The inefficiency of fossil fuels is a feature, not a bug

This is Utrecht's reinvented Amsterdamsestraatweg. The municipality faced a unique challenge: How to transform one of the busiest car routes into a greener, more liveable space? FInd out how they did it: buff.ly/p06KxAA

"I've never seen the roads so dangerous in my 39-year career," said the man who has no idea how ridiculous he sounds. Almost 900 fewer people have been injured.

Day by day my Instagram feed becomes more dominated by cute little Maltese puppy videos

How do we fix this mess?

Folks, the "I bought this before Elon went crazy" bumper stickers ain't gonna cut it. You gotta get rid of your Tesla. Anything less is a tacit endorsement of this man and his dangerous ideology.

Cargo bikes. They're not for everyone, but for a lot of people they can and do replace a lot of car trips. Good news for people that want less traffic. Must watch video on cargo bike research 😎

I've been to the Netherlands and almost forgot to tell you all! They've got 99 problems but incredible transport options ain't one

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before. Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.

stop wasting your time and watch this VHS-C explainer 😎

Nigel Farage is the biggest charlatan in British political history. And here's what his constitutents in Clacton really think:

I was there that sorry night (and voted against) the decision to move our market to the former Argos building. Last night I was sat at the back to see that decision reversed AND IT FELT GOOOOD www.birkenhead.news/birkenhead-m...

Great way to present the railway map of the Netherlands. With Utrecht in the centre as the important railway hub it is

Let's av it

sudden urge to learn to play every Nick Drake song

This is one for the books

Fantastic to see. Electrification is inevitable ⚡ Still, we need to ensure adequate rules are in place to prevent these vehicles being marketed for the school run, nipping to the shops, etc.

Remember when they said no one would cycle on Deansgate

Getting things back on track post summer hols is our mission. We can and we will ✊ www.livpost.co.uk/exclusive-ho...

standby for my next council motion: "The Rapid Installation of Many More Killer Kerbs (For Cars)"

I know this is very much a secondary point when the US is on a rapid slide towards total and unadulterated fascism but... A @greens4hs2.bsky.social tee has appeared in Washington DC. Which is kinda blowing my mind. Never underestimate the power of angry train nerds. We might yet change the world.

One of the first new cycle routes of Birkenhead taking shape 😎

New passenger railway is hugely successful. Hey we should probably do more of that, no? www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-e...

This is what HS2 was going to fix: capacity on core routes being at such a premium that we are reducing, not increasing, bike provision. And now, thanks to this government, things are going to get worse, not better.

Want to get people out of cars? Add rail capacity! #HS2 in full would rebuild both Manchester and Leeds stations and take away the express trains that clog them up. That would massively increase local train capacity. Then add a new high speed line between them and repeat the Lizzie Line effect.

a lot going on in the world but taking a small solace from our solar panels hitting their estimated annual energy generation today 😊☀️

As long as people are stuck in car dependency without good public transport, those who should not be behind a wheel will be forced to resist rules to restrict them. Ending road death MUST mean green transport ££ and lower speeds, car sizes and traffic, not just action on drivers.

We’re here outside the Kings Gap Hotel in Hoylake to counter some of the hatred that we can see on our streets.

Where's Chris Morris when we need him most? These Ref0rm morons are deserving of a special kind of ridicule Reforons? Remorons? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

thanks for nothing, lads

Fantastic to see unanimous support for @edwardlamb.bsky.social's motion at Wirral Council to champion outdoor play and child-friendly streets 🚲🏃‍♂️⚽🙌 www.wirralglobe.co.uk/news/2533632... @wirralglobe.bsky.social

This is wonderful news! Exactly what we've been wanting to happen. Enormous gratitude to @edwardlamb.bsky.social and Wirral Council for leading the way for other councils to follow!!

Why do Labour, Tories and Lib Dems have so little respect for people who complain that their council tax and pension contributions are funding genocide? My speech to council earlier this week.

On Monday night at Wirral Council, we unanimously passed my @wirralgreenparty.bsky.social motion to support more welcoming, child-friendly neighbourhoods and a proper strategy to promote outdoor play. 🌱🚲🏃‍♀️ A small step — but a meaningful one. Here’s a short thread. 🧵👇

Recognise car-brain when you see it

For an awful lot of politicians and pundits, the story about fixing our railways starts and stops with one word: NATIONALISATION. But this slogan alone is doomed to fail us all. Watch me explain why for @greensorganise.bsky.social: #NotJustNationalisation

I’ve listened to this podcast twice, and want to listen again to take notes - so many fascinating insights from @ianwalker.bsky.social and @edwardlamb.bsky.social about the strange psychology of car driving and #motornormativity open.spotify.com/episode/2Yxn... @lowtrafficfuture.bsky.social

Heidi Alexander's decision to remove the safeguarding of HS2's route from Birmingham to Leeds is short-sighted in the extreme. This is the most beneficial part of the whole HS2 scheme - as we said at the time that the construction of the leg was cancelled. www.placeyorkshire.co.uk/govt-axes-de...

Imagine this for driving. The M6 is rolled and run by Avanti, the M56 by Northern, etc...
