Over 5 years of raising issues about this square, RBKC is finally consulting on a school street…. Strongly supportive with comments on proposed implementation below in thread; consult.rbkc.gov.uk/communities/...

👀⏰🚶‍♀️PEOPLE! It’s the LAST DAY to throw your support behind turning Oxford Street from this…to this! And yes, pedestrianisation does mean NO vehicles, including BICYCLES 🚳 and YES, we FULLY support that! BUT.. action.lcc.org.uk/oxfordst

Is it worrying that the only thing that gave this April Fool away was suggesting Barclay would be undertaking an NHS wide review? I mean Barclay, I wouldn’t trust him to review the catering options for a DoH refurb app.hsj.co.uk/2025/04/01/e...

Ok, went to my local bank after it had been closed for 8 months turning it into a cafe bank… It had more people serving coffee today than assisting with banking. In fact it had double the number of baristas than available ATMs.

Regulator accused of letting hedge funds control Thames Water. TW shares worthless, shareholders won't invest. Lenders in control, want public money, will continue to extract cash. OFWAT approved price hikes, likely to suspend fines. Must nationalise to end crisis. archive.ph/vr4UK

“Kensington & Chelsea Council says it’s not going to have any cycle infrastructure - well why not? There’s plenty of space. Big wide roads. Why are they being twats about it?” James May

Say what you see

There are elaborate systems in place for tackling death and injury in the air, rail and maritime sectors, but not for roads. The last Government promised a Road Safety Investigation Branch, then dropped it. The new Gov’t says they have no plans for one. www.telegraph.co.uk/cars/news/wh...

Boycott paying Thames Water bills! Thames Water bills are coming through your letter boxes & they are robbing us Also demanding one year payment upfront, they are on the brink of bankruptcy & trying to rob us ALL of us need to BOYCOTT Thames Water bills

Killed by a driver. On a sports pitch. Sickening.

When you jump on any hire bike, always test the brakes before going off on your way

Interesting to see RBKC looking to raise £1 million + by “increasing enforcement on moving traffic contraventions” in 2025/26

Europe & America can agree and disagree on the rhetoric from the Trump administration over the last 2 weeks but Trump is presenting a clear and present danger to Europe. Europe needs to put all options on the table

Delaying hospital builds will just cost more…. hsj.cdn.wilmingtonplc.com/2025/02/04/d...

We had a house fire once. This makes my blood run cold.

So G Network dug up all the roads in Kensington & Chelsea a few years ago now but will only install based on express demand?!? and it may take 18 months or may not even happen…how’s this even a business model?

Wow @disneyplushelp.bsky.social annual subscription cost will have increased 62.5% over last 2 years! #cancel

Northumberland getting repositioned southbound cycle lane, this morning saw cycle lane being repositioned to kerb side & car parking moved out into carriageway. Looks like they are implementing the consulted scheme @westminster-lcc.bsky.social

Delaying new hospitals at Whipps Cross & St Mary’s is a bad decision Our communities deserve modern facilities to meet their needs Appreciating the challenges, there was hope/expectation of a more mission critical approach to decisions & delivery, not a 15 year plan to start

Interesting A driver has claimed this car on local social media and stated he broke down Genuine question as I’ve not been in this situation, if you break down in such a location do you just leave it there like that?

I think Blacks has actually closed on Paternoster Square!

Streeting’s review of New Hospital programme via HSJ WTF seriously!?!, these dates to even start construction are mad Whipps pushed to 2032-2034 St Mary’s pushed to 2035-2038 Hammersmith pushed to 2035-2038 This is 2-3 parliaments away to even start hsj.cdn.wilmingtonplc.com/2025/01/20/d...

Fascinating article in The Guardian by @richada.bsky.social on how the private school school run significantly increases pollution (27%}. As anyone who lives in Oxford knows, private school term time is a big pollution and congestion problem. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Post claiming NYC is a ghost town now If only 11% of people entering the CBD actually drove prior to congestion charging & the drop in vehicle entries for Jan to date is only 7.51%. It can’t be a ghost town, NYC just has clearer roads surely?

Heads up for anyone trying Chinese Hotpot restaurants, get up and go to the dipping sauces station & create your mix! Quite often see people trying it out & not all staff tell people so they end up sitting there with the look of “somethings not right, is this it?!?”

With the number of resident permits declining in Kensington & Chelsea, rather than taking this as an opportunity to review kerb space management, RBKC are looking to expand eligibility for resident permits! Seriously?!? consult.rbkc.gov.uk/communities/...

NYC congestion zone is smaller but has it gone further than London with congestion pricing? 1. 24/7 with differential pricing 2. Means tested resident exemptions 3. Differential rates for vehicle types 4. Less exemptions 5. + NYC also have separate taxi congestion pricing

Nigel Farage's latest register of MPs' interests shows he was in the US *again* in December, and was paid *£189,000* for four hours work promoting a gold bullion dealer.

Counterpoint. No it won't.
