No scheme is perfect, don't expect them to be. Listen to engineers, they are experts. Look for good evidence, don't dismiss it. And wait for trial schemes to bed in. My advice on when your roads change in @HamandHigh @london_cycling hamhigh.co.uk/news/ham-high-…

Today, I signed an Executive Order temporarily repealing bedtimes in the City of New York so that kids of all ages can watch our team in the NBA Finals. As Mayor, you’re forced to make many difficult decisions. This was not one of them. Go Knicks.

Done with X. Really done. Find me on BSky. I won't deactivate account as I will keep checking on certain accounts etc. But it's such a toxic cesspit. No more posts or comments from me I don't think.

📅 It's been a record-breaking year for cycling in London, with the capital showing it's well on its way to becoming a city that runs on two wheels! 🚴 From hitting 1.5 million daily journeys, to the cycle networks expansion, here's our wrap up of 2025: bit.ly/4jgbeh5

I want to say something many will hate but it needs to be said. I have met Nigel Farage. I do not know him well but I know the world he moves in. We move in similar circles sometimes. The kind of private rooms and members clubs that most people in Britain will never see. I know how the rich speak about ordinary people. They laugh. They joke about how easy it is to wind you up. They know exactly which buttons to press. They know you are angry and tired and struggling and they know you want someone to blame. That is why they point at boats while they pick your pockets. I did not grow up rich. I did not grow up in privilege. I understand struggle and the real world. But my life changed and now I see both sides. I sit with billionaires and politicians and decision makers and I hear conversations you never will. I know the truth. They do not care about you. They do not care about your future. They care about profit and control. They see ordinary people as tools or distractions. I am telling you this because I am tired of watching good people being manipulated. Look at your life before Brexit and look at it now. Look at your shopping bills. Look at what food costs in Europe right now. Look at how much tax you pay on imports. Look at your wages and energy prices and mortgages. Look at the 10,000 NHS staff we lost when freedom of movement ended. Look at the ambulances that do not arrive. Look at nurses and teachers using food banks. Tell me honestly. Are you better off? Nigel helped build the crisis you are living in. Then he pointed at immigrants and told you to blame them. That is the con. He pulled the UK out of the Dublin III agreement which means we cannot return asylum seekers to Europe anymore. He created the boat chaos then told you to panic about it. Someone who worked in immigration for more than ten years told me they saw it coming. It was planned. It is a strategy. And you are falling for it. Now he wants austerity again. He wants to cut wages for young people. He wants to rip up workers rights. He wants private health insurance and a French style NHS where the rich get treated first and the poor get nothing. He wants you fighting each other so you never see who is robbing you. If you vote for him you are voting to destroy your own life. Not mine. Yours. None of this affects me personally. I drink champagne with the people who control the money. I will be fine no matter what. Reform will not hurt me. Reform will hurt you. It will hurt your children. Your parents. Your future. I am telling you because I care. If I did not care I would stay silent and watch you suffer. You think I am your enemy because I make you uncomfortable. I am not. Your enemy is the one who lies to you and blames the vulnerable while he empties your pockets. Reform will not save you. Reform will finish you. Think. Before they take everything. 💷🇬🇧☕️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🫖

Our Head of Campaigns @psimonk quoted in this 👇 New stats on soaring cycle trips are great, but... “Until every borough gets with the programme, cycling’s potential in London will remain ...restricted to the fast, fit and fearless" zagdaily.com/places/cycle-jo…

A true mega-city for cycling? London's doing it baby. BUT... outer London... Mayoral boldness... TfL 'business as usual' approach... appropriate funding levels? London still has some real issues and a long way to go. But this is great news!

HT @BearlyPolitics who I read via @substack & rate as excellent on political analysis for summarising this absolute slam dunk on X/Twitter's bias. Why I'm not here any more. Also HT to @SkyNews for this in-depth, data-driven investigation into X's algorithm. Read & ditch X...

Cycling really does give you wings! Watching a toddler soar up front whilst a retired tandem couple found their turbo mode was a definite ride highlight. Magical to see bikes bring out the joy in everyone, at every age on this fun Kingston ride. @London_Cycling @KingstonCycling
