Three days into a heatwave and South East Water is already sending out panic messages. "Water supplies are struggling in your area" and "use for essential purposes only - drinking, washing and cooking." 🚰

In 2021 we were asked to present at the Road Safety GB Festival of Road Safety on the call for a national urban/village 20mph default speed limit. It's still valid and since then the data is even clearer that 20mph reduces casualties by 20-30%. Its time for 20mph vimeo.com/642715509?fl=pl&fe…

Misleading advert of the day. Trainline will not process your delay/repay claim in the app and refund you. They tell you to submit paper copies to the service provider.

One of the many reasons you should ride your bike well clear of cars' door zone. This can be mid lane or out of a poorly designed bike lane.
And how is that relevant? Doorings occur in London too.

It's good to see how 30km/h - 20mph limits are becoming the norm for cities across Europe.

Across England some 20m people live in local authorities where 20mph has been set for most urban/village roads. Scotland and Wales have set it as a national standard. Results are amazing with Wales recording a 26% reduction in casualties on urban/village roads in the year after implementing.

In an attempt to explain just why it is that some 77 million Americans voted for the dumbest man alive to be their president for a second time, I’m absolutely delighted to present you with the expanded list of US food that you cannot legally sell in Europe!🧵

What was distinctive about 2025 for 20’s Plenty for Us was how the narrative developed from whether to introduce 20mph limits as an urban/village norm into how they should be implemented.

The new UK Road Safety Strategy with its target of a 65% reduction in casualties and mandating of a Safe System approach, marks the beginning of the end for the national 30mph speed limit. It's no longer credible when its been rejected by all Welsh and Scottish and 55% of English authorities.

Not the only back-door increase. Changing the classifications of "peak journey" was a big one.
