Good to see.
There’s a lot going on in politics right now, but I’m getting on with the job. For too long, cycling & walking hasn't been an easy choice. That's why we’re setting national targets with a proper plan, to enable more people to walk, cycle & wheel more often.theguardian.com/politics/202…

Nightingale Estate, daffodils at night πŸŒ™ From an resident involved action day event led by Ben Dwyer at @groundworkuk about three years ago. Lovely look for a bit of effort and little cost.

Reports on Facebook of phone thefts on buses in Stoke Newington continue.
Reports on Facebook of phone thefts on buses in Stoke Newington continue. One incident 5 days ago involved 2–3 boys. Another yesterday saw a boy grab a phone through rear doors at the stop opposite Co-op before running off.

Very sadly, just a normalised sight now in Britain. Please help us fight the epidemic of litter and fly-tipping blighting our country. cleanupbritain.org
