Spot on. Many people miss this totally
My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

Trump just gave a commutation to David Gentile, a private equity executive who defrauded investors of $1.6B.
Meanwhile, Trump's regime has also scrapped enforcement actions against over 160 corporations accused of misconduct.
A new Golden Age for corporate criminals.

I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.
They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

The same Lloyd Russell Moyle who campaigned against Brighton LTNs & about whom Caroline Lucas previously said: “Thankfully our city has one MP who speaks sense - not the one spreading misinformation about schemes to make people safer and the air cleaner to breathe”? Ok.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

Compare and contrast the Government language.
£3,750 EV grant on a £35k car: ‘helping families’.
Cycle to Work: ‘subsidising leisure’.
And yet cycling delivers TEN TIMES the impact of electric cars for reaching net zero. It’s almost like narrative, not data, is driving policy.

@wandsworthcycling.bsky.social Amy meaningful engagement from TFL on the state of CS7 on the Tooting/Balham stretch? At this point looks like 80% of the wands have 'accidentally' been removed and not re-appeared. No way to report in on TFL either. They just close the ticket as it's not car related.

Massive thanks to @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social for showing me the problem of traffic cutting across Upper Tooting Rd from side street to side street, barging in front of people crossing the road and bullying people riding bikes along CS7 out of the way.

Sadly Fleur is continuing to deliberately mislead Putney residents by claiming that the closure of Hammersmith Bridge to cars is increasing traffic in Putney.
The reality is that traffic is down on all surrounding bridges since the closure of Hammersmith Bridge.

We are concerned about recent talk about cuts to the Cycle to Work Scheme. Though the scheme has some limits, where other forms of transport present barriers to Disabled people, cycling can for some be a method of independent travel that is supported through the Cycle To Work Scheme.

Refugees could have jewellery or other valuables taken to pay for the costs of processing their cases, a Home Office minister has said, in another detail of changes to migration policy likely to cause worries among Labour MPs.

We are floating the removal of the ONLY tax break on cycles. (Yes, it’s imperfect, yes it misses out the chunk of population that don’t pay income tax).
We are definitely not going to restore the fuel tax on petrol to where it should be.
