Protected cycle tracks are needed alongside main roads so everyone can safely and comfortably get around their town or city, from elderly people with mobility issues, to young friends cycling to hockey practice together

Greenery alongside the cycle track creates a nice separation between bikes and traffic, helps rainwater retention and biodiversity, and trees help provide shade from the sun and rain

This is what happens when streets stop being shortcuts for cars and become streets that serve communities. Design for people and life fills the space.

We must resist Starmer’s authoritarian Labour government and defeat every attempt to crush the movement for Palestinian liberation.

We will not stop until Palestine is free — from the river to the sea 🇵🇸

Rachel Reeves' pro-Israel speech was utterly disgusting.

Our political elite are dripping with contempt for the worth of Palestinian life.

If the 🇺🇸 United States saw what the 🇺🇸 United States is doing in the 🇺🇸 United States, the 🇺🇸 United States would invade the 🇺🇸 United States to liberate the people of 🇺🇸 United States from the tyranny of the 🇺🇸 United States

There’s a video of ICE shooting a woman in the head.

What else do you need to see?
Let's wait for the facts to come out and demand ICE/CBP end their terror.

For the record, I posted this 4 hours BEFORE Vance’s press conference today about Renee Good, which was by far one of the most repulsive spectacles we have ever seen in American politics from a disgusting individual. bsky.app/profile/ronf...
I’ve said for a while that as bad as Trump is Vance is even worse and I never thought it would be possible for anyone to be worse than Trump.

It's time to state clearly that if MAGA and Republicans can't condemn any part of this shooting, continue to blame the victim for it, and even hint that it's a just outcome that others "deserve," that's a crossing of the line that the rest of us won't ever be able to forget.
Rep. Randy Fine: "If you impede the actions of our law enforcement as they seek to repel foreign invaders from our country, you get what's coming to you. I do not feel bad for the woman that was involved."

People are rightly asking, "How can Trump run Venezuela without any competent people there?"

But Donald will run Venezuela just like he runs the United States—without any competent people there.

There is no private insurance market willing to underwrite #nuclear risk in full. Not accidents, not waste, not abandonment, not war, not institutional failure, not the passage of centuries.

Uninsurable nature of #nuclear should end the debate in any system that claims to respect markets, responsibility, or realism. If a tech can't exist without forcing unborn humans to absorb its catastrophic downside, it's not a solution. It's a temporal externalisation of risk disguised as progress.

Last year, a record 582 GW of renewable energy generation capacity was added to the world’s supplies: almost no new nuclear was added. Indeed, each year, new #renewables add about 200 times more global electricity than new #nuclear does.

There has never been, and there will never be, a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

The reason for this is that—under Netanyahu—Israel is a genocidal rogue state whose signature on any document is meaningless.

American media did Trump a solid by pretending that a wholly illusory ceasefire exists.

On the 10th Anniversary of the Paris Agreement, you’re going to hear a lot about the progress we’ve made — people saying we “are” heading to 2.5 degrees heating instead of four.

I deeply regret to tell you that this is complacent misinformation.
