#Helsinki achieved zero road deaths in a year—without autonomous vehicles on its streets.

They did it through road diets, car-free zones, and 30 km/h speed limits.

Not by flooding the streets with robotaxis. (Waymo isn't allowed in #Finland.)

To really save lives...

America isn’t drifting toward authoritarianism. It is living it. Authoritarianism doesn’t arrive with a dramatic or coup-like event. It advances quietly, in daylight, through choices, habits, and silence. The administration made all their actions clear, they spelled it out!

We've analysed this video of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good yesterday in Minneapolis frame-by-frame to highlight the positioning of the gun and phone in the ICE agent's hands.

JD Vance on the killing of Renee Good: "The reporting over this has been one of the biggest scandals I've ever seen in media. I've never seen a case so misrepresented and misreported."

Yep, as always, JD Vance is completely full of shit. ICE agents do not have categorical or absolute immunity.

TLDR: DfT to devolve decision making about pavement parking to highest tier of local authority (mayors, unitary, county). No national ban.

My pettist of pet air pollution peeves: log burners on foggy days. You are literally gassing yourself and your entire neighbourhood in dense air pollution trapped at ground level. It is where the word smog (smoke + fog) comes from. Should be banned. Until then, just don't.

For fucks sake. A nationwide no stopping on footways & verges would have been an easy win. Councils & government are not responsible for helping you store private property; but they are responsible for ensuring your ability to pass & repass. Footpath/verge parking prevents that right being exercised
DfT press release on footway parking.

They've bottled a national ban and so will rely on local action with new powers (which are not explained, but area-based).

A postcode lottery as now then? I await actual details.

I call on my party and my government to remove themselves entirely from X and communicate with the public where they actually participate online and can be protected from such illegality.

For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies

I think this still gets overlooked. It wasn’t just the tidal wave of racist filth, it was the deliberate puncturing of the life preservers.
I scrolled the feeds of people who vanished from Twitter after 2022, and it's wall-to-wall Democrats whose last tweets are basically "the new algo buried me", "I'm being throttled", and "no one sees my stuff anymore."

It could also help tackle illegal 'fake ebikes', and the unsustainable and dangerous pressures placed on delivery riders that drive demand for these dangerous machines. The fact 'or engagers' is added after 'employers' suggests delivery apps won't be able to hide behind gig worker status on this 🤞

It has become increasingly clear that X - a platform now actively producing explicit and abusive material against women and children - is not an appropriate platform to be using for our comms.

I will keep pushing for action from the govt & relevant authorities in this area.

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.
