Large SUVs are so common in streets now. This one is from KIA and is around £79k. It's a 6 seater. Battery pack is a massive 100Kwh. Meanwhile we offer the UA at £6.5k with 545Wh battery. Only one can get you through city traffic! 😆 @sw20.info @banzaiedinburgh.bsky.social @portyenergy.bsky.social

Wank, wank, wank, good-guy.

🚨 New research by us! 📣 Most British drivers don't know how dangerous SUVs are to other road users, but adding information to SUV marketing materials seems to do almost nothing to change people's plans to buy SUVs Here's a 🧵 on why harder action is going to be needed 1/10

I am once again going to bang my wee drum about how many folks go and pay to holiday cycling about in a rewilded/tree-lined car-free 15-minute city and don't stop to think for a minute that home could be just like that, after they drive home again from Center Parcs.

Scenes from Porty beach...

No doubt keen cyclists. Carbon fibre cervelo season is well into swing

The length of time between Porty getting some new dropped kerbs installed, ¹ and some entitled driver blocking it with their ego-pram is, sadly, measured in hours.

You going to show some leadership, @stephenjenkinson.bsky.social, and fix this mess, or just follow your predecessor's example and happily wash your hands of it while blaming someone else.

i’ve worked in tech more than 20 years. it has never been more ridiculous.

Just FYI there’s an account on here called @redditspaceviewes.bsky.social (with over 200k followers) that is posting a bunch of AI slop (including a “Saturn polar hexagon” with 8 sides) and claiming it’s NASA imagery. If you see anything posted by them, it’s likely fake.

First KitKat harvest of the season waiting to be lifted in Suffolk.

This is excellent, and the soup in the cafe is pretty good too.

Read yesterday about MI19’s antics at Trent House, AKA the Cockfosters Cage, where they kept both ranking German POWs in WWII. Oh. My. God. The British were scary good at this shit in WWII. Scary good. They played up, HARD, every stereotype the Germans had about the British upper class.

Private jet from Edinburgh to Blackpool? Really??

I have a joke about UDP, but I'm not sure you'll get it.

The only way Reform UK could win a general election is through our first-past-the-post system. If we had proportional representation, the threat would evaporate. We don't have PR because Starmer has blocked it. This allows him to say: vote Labour or you get Farage. Because it's all he has left.

Furious residents say they are being pushed to the ‘brink of financial ruin’ by council wardens **legitimately** ticketing them for parking **illegally, on double yellow lines**, next to their homes.

SUV drivers could face extra charges for driving in London

Perfect!

SUVs like this one, with increased ground clearance, are more likely to ride-up and roll over. As well as 80% more likely to kill a child with increased bonnet heights They also need to end!

The fundamental flaw of Alex Cole-Hamilton is not that he's English, or a Lib Dem, or anti-independence; but that he is, simply, an insufferable cunt

By popular demand, a train horn on a bike vs right on red car brain. I kinda suck at editing #bikesky

One for the manifesto, @edinburghbug.bsky.social?

I have some hot compost news

When we go to hospital, it’s rarely for something easy. But patients and their families are being immediately met with unreliable/disjoint public transport, lack of safe active travel options, and increasing bus/rail fares. And these fares are going up while investment in public/active travel isn't!
