Politics London discussing driverless taxis casually referring to “jaywalking pedestrians”.

Jaywalking is not a thing in UK law.

Transport for London and Government had better not be asleep at the wheel on this.

Two weeks ago, Peter Mandelson told us he had no recollection of planning to buy a £2m apartment in Rio via a Panama holding company and a Brazilian company.

Yesterday we found notarised incorporation documents for the Brazilian company, with Mr Mandelson's signature.

Brexit and Trump are two sides of the same coin.

Russia backed both to shatter the West from the inside. It worked.

A divided Europe and an isolationist US are the best gifts Putin ever got.

We are fighting each other while he tries to rebuild an empire

Brexit is dead but the body still lies rotting in our living rooms. Get rid of it. Death by 1000 Brexit ameliorations is still death.

This book is the ideal influencing resource for Brexiteers in remorse and Remainers in remission.

It's not surprising that Lutnik was a business associate of Epstein and is all over the Epstein files.
It's not surprising that he lied about it.
It is surprising that his lies were so detailed and well thought out.
And it is surprising that he didn't realize the truth would be known.

I was born and raised in Gorton and Denton, and I absolutely guarantee you Reform won't put it first.

They won't even put Britain first.

They'll put Russia first. We LITERALLY jailed one of them for doing that.

It's almost like being fabulously rich doesn't make you happy or well adjusted. It's almost like it makes you sad and lonely. And leaves you forever casting about for scapegoats to offset your deep self-loathing. Thank you Jim Ratcliffe and Elon Musk for these important life lessons.

Mitigating the climate crisis by stopping the burning of fossil fuels has a massive co-benefit we should talk about all the time: a >3% of GDP savings through less air pollution.
This makes the conservative economic value of clean air $1T annually in the U.S.

And then you would have to add the damage from other sources such as manufacturing and use of chemicals such as aerosols, etc.
#naturalsecurity
Air pollution from burning fossil fuels causes 100,000 to 200,000 avoidable American deaths per year. At the EPA's statistical value of life of $10 million, these deaths cost America $1 to $2 trillion per year, every year. These costs far outweigh the costs of transitioning off of fossil fuels.

In response to a parliamentary petition, MPs tonight debated Russian influence in UK politics. Guess who didn't join in.
Just confirmed - not one member of Reform has been present.

One Conservative, sat alone in his corner has spoken, slagging others off and not helping at all. Everyone else from all other parties have been really good, understanding the problem and contributing with excellent points.
