Rewilded car parks, 20mph limits and compulsory cargo bikes – welcome to the Green Party’s transport revolution. Alongside plans to reduce speed limits to 55mph on motorways and 20mph in built-up areas, ban cars from city centres and restrict parking zones, all of which were part of a paper released earlier this year, the proposed policies sound like a campaign to make life on the road as miserable as possible. #CostOfNetZero

The best thing about the 30p plastic bag charge is that the cupboard next to my sink is now worth £672,348

@GBNEWS Should the back of the New #BankNote include the reality of living in Britain today? #BankofEngland #PotholeBritain

Went to the AFC victory parade yesterday - a great afternoon........but @TfL manage to spoil it by closing off access to stations (Manor House)..........but don't bother putting up any signage, so folk criss-crossing the man road junction trying to find the one entrance. Useless.

Record-breaking pothole damage costs the average driver £140 honestjohn.co.uk/news/drivin…

A bogus concern for road safety is being used as a pretext to accelerate the anti-car agenda. MOT tests are already a scam, with minor, irrelevant infractions used to impose bills of hundreds, sometimes thousands of pounds. It's likely the costs far outweigh the benefits.

RT @kelvmackenzie: Congrats to The Times for revealing that Green Party leader Zack Polanski attacked council tax as “ regressive” while fa…

She joked about hitting Potholes after her incident in Oxfordshire. In her position you shouldn't be joking about at all. One cyclist a killed or seriously injured a week due to Potholes. 70 bikers KSI a year due to badly maintained roads.

Why do the Green Party pay their staff such awful salaries less the £15 min policy?

@Tyrepress Blackcircles research: 87% of UK motorists say potholes are a local problem. I afraid I don't agree with this. It a National Crisis and international embarrassment. In France we call #KingdomOfPotholes tyrepress.com/2026/05/blackc…

The Green Party has complained about this cartoon of Zack Polanski by the The Times. They’re deeply unhappy with it. Whatever you do, do not repost!

Whilst my sympathies are wholly with the families of the guys stabbed - why is no-one asking how the offender was granted UK citizenship and by whom?? Name names and stop such madness happening again.

Councillor apologises after asking council call handler to speak English as critics agree with her Eastbourne Borough Councillor Elaine Hamilton, in her 60s, called the council helpdesk and struggled to understand the operator. She politely said “I’m sorry but I can’t understand you, can I speak to someone who can speak English please?” The comment triggered a backlash with some social media users branding her racist. Hamilton has now issued a statement apologising and saying she regretted any offence caused. Critics including local residents and fellow councillors have agreed with her, arguing English should be the language used for all council services so ratepayers can be properly understood.

Bump in the road - how the rising price of oil affects pothole repairs. Although in Irish media it applies here. The £18.6bn pothole backlog reported the other month could now be £23bn. With general deterioration £25bn next year! rte.ie/news/2026/0426/157009…

Tu hijo no tiene ansiedad. Lo que tiene es falta de hambre. Y la culpa es tuya. Ayer despedí a un chico de 22 años a los diez minutos de empezar su periodo de prueba. ¿El motivo? Me preguntó cuántas pausas para el café tenía y si el trabajo era "presencial obligatorio" porque le generaba estrés el transporte público. Le di su mochila y le abrí la puerta. Sin drama. Sin explicaciones. Estamos en 2026 y hemos creado un monstruo: el profesional de cristal. Gente que cree que el sueldo es un derecho de nacimiento y que el esfuerzo es "explotación". Me dicen: —"Es que los tiempos han cambiado, ahora priorizamos el bienestar". Mentira. Priorizáis la mediocridad. Priorizáis el camino fácil mientras el resto del mundo os pasa por la derecha sin pedir permiso. El éxito no es apto para gente que necesita un "espacio seguro" cada vez que recibe una crítica. El dinero no fluye hacia los que esperan que la empresa se adapte a sus traumas infantiles. Si te ofende este texto, felicidades: eres parte del problema. Eres de los que piensan que "ser amable" es más importante que ser eficiente. Eres de los que confunden tener una opinión con tener resultados. He visto a padres arruinarse pagando carreras privadas para que sus hijos terminen llorando en un hilo de X porque su jefe les ha pedido que lleguen puntuales. ¿Quieres ayudar a tu hijo? Deja de protegerlo de la realidad. Deja de validar sus excusas. Enséñale que el mundo es un lugar hostil que desayuna gente con "potencial" y merienda gente con "títulos". La verdadera salud mental es ser capaz de sostener tu vida sobre tus propios hombros sin pedirle a los demás que carguen con tu peso. Aquel chico se fue llamándome "boomer". Yo me volví a mi mesa a trabajar con gente que sabe que, en el barro, las etiquetas de cristal no sirven para nada. El mundo no te debe nada. Aceptarlo es el primer paso para dejar de ser un estorbo.

Morrisons manager sacked after tackling violent serial shoplifter who spat in his face is blown away by huge protest outside store Sean Egan, 46, with 29 years service at the Aldridge branch near Walsall, intervened last December when the thief became aggressive. Despite the shoplifter spitting directly in his face, Egan has now been dismissed for breaching the supermarket’s “deter and not detain” policy. He says he is genuinely blown away by the incredible local support shown at the weekend protest with banners demanding justice for him. Egan accused his former bosses of just standing there watching the entire protest from nearby before blanking him and offering no acknowledgement. Morrisons said it will not ask colleagues to put themselves at risk.

Time to have a #StGeorgeSlayingPotholeDragons on UK roads!

Looks like my @LinkedIn account has been restricted now. I must be upsetting some with me posts with truth about our Pothole roads. Still never mind after 13yrs campaigning I have hundreds of media contacts. So not going away anytime soon.

🚨DRUG MULE : Carlotta Allum, Lambeth Green candidate for Brixton Windrush on May 7th, was busted smuggling 10,000 ecstasy pills strapped to her body as a drug mule into the USA. Did time in a US prison. Now this convicted criminal lectures us on “justice” and the Greens are desperate to make her a councillor. From international drug smuggler to elected office Total disgrace. #GreenHypocrisy - Courtesy of Green Party Exposed X account
