Driver was only jailed for 6 years 8 months and a 5 yr driving ban on release.

20mph is a massive public safety and health win.
This is also a huge reduction in NHs and emergency service resources and money saver too.

It should be the default in built up areas with exceptions. right across the country
New research provides conclusive proof that 20mph in London is saving lives 🚶🚲🚌🚗

14 yrs of analysis at 150+ sites - reviewed by experts - shows:
❤️40% fewer deaths (vs 7% drop on roads where no changes were made)
❤️75% fewer children killed & 50% fewer kids hurt.

The best way to honour those that sacrificed so much in WW2 would be to rebuild our country, open our arms to those in need and rejoin the EU family to ensure peace across Europe.

The likes of the BBC are largely to blame for any hatred and resentment out there.
This is hateful and irresponsible journalism. Stirring just for likes and clicks

The message that this sends is that if you don't or can't drive then Labour does not care about you.
Hiking train and bus fares whilst keeping fuel duty frozen (so down in real terms) just reinforces that message.
At least we expected this from the Tories. I expected better. Disappointed
Our Labour government is on the side of drivers.

This Easter, over a thousand miles of roadworks will be lifted to make journeys smoother, and thanks to Labour’s Plan for Change, drivers are set to be £500 better off​​ ✅

Nigel Farage has told ITV News the first thing he would do as prime minister if he won a general election would be to remove the UK from the European Convention on Human Rights

That alone is good reason never to vote for Reform UK.

THIS IS WHY

Since Labour took office, 30,000 more children have been pushed into poverty by the two-child benefit cap.

That’s 109 kids every single day.

The Labour whip was taken from me for voting to scrap it.

I’d do it again — no child should grow up in poverty to satisfy a spreadsheet.

Energy bills up 6.4% — while network providers raked in £4 billion in “excess” profits over four years.

Water bills up 26% — while firms paid £78 billion in dividends since privatisation & racked up £64 billion in debt.

End this scam. Bring water & energy into public ownership.

I cycle a lot but misogynist abuse on roads and anxieties about poor social safety on off-road routes (esp in the dark/on my own) mean that I am forced to drive some journeys that I should be able to easily cycle.

Those planning local cycle networks must build routes that are truly accessible.

Cutting welfare goes against Labour’s core values – that’s the point
Labour MPs threaten to rebel over government plan for welfare reform. But this is not new for Labour. Its in the party’s political DNA

I’m tired of our Govs. saying we can’t afford a decent NHS, Social Care, Education, Transport, Roads, Police Force, Lifestyle etc. but we can afford to let the super rich and businesses off paying tax, a royal family that adds nothing but takes much and Brexit.
Sort yourselves out please.

Instead of slashing welfare and disability benefits — forcing more disabled people and children into poverty — the government could introduce a 2% tax on assets over £10 million.

It would raise £24 billion — five times the savings from these cuts.

This is austerity 2.0

Choosing to take money from disabled benefit claimants rather than levy a wealth tax is simply immoral 👇

So basically, we were all born randomly in various spaces on earth

This random fact meant we were unequally allocated rights & entitlements

This decided how, where & when we could move

This decided how we are treated by others & ultimately the value of our life

Borders are an absolute NONSENSE

This is the official Police response to whether children can play in the street.

Motornormativity exists everywhere, in this case, prioritising the potential feelings of drivers over the independence of children. How utterly depressing.

Remember, Ofgem is governmental body, and #SinkingStarmer and his @teamlabouruk.bsky.social can stop this, but they CHOOSE not to.
Because Labour cares more about the shareholders than about you.
Ofgem increases its price cap for a third consecutive quarter

10% hike in October
1.2% hike in January
6.4% hike in April

What part of “price cap” doesn’t Ofgem understand?
