I can't stop laughing at this. It's when he raises his hands at the inevitability of what's about to happen as the daft sheep launches again.

@francesca_kms It frustrates me that Google always assumes you’ll walk to the station. If you could tell it you’re cycling (or multi-mode) you could make better decisions. Also, while we’re at it, add airport transfer times, security and waiting into the flight times.

[Adam Tranter @adamtranter]

Many politicians back 20mph “outside schools” or "where vulnerable people are". But people don’t teleport. They need safe journeys, not just safe destinations.

Plot schools, shops, crashes, care homes on a map + the answer is obvious: 20mph should be the default in urban areas.

@jamiezerofour @LizJWalter @Westminster_LCC You’re right, it doesn’t. So how do we change that? Compulsory retests?

@josephkazUK @GNetworkComms It seems that @GNetworkComms don’t use twitter any longer. Have you followed up elsewhere?
I wonder if they had a deal to pay @CamdenCouncil to make good?

The problem with fossil fuels is their intermittency 😅

@MartinSLewis Get an IFA as early as possible. It seems like they cost a lot, but they shine a light on your situation which can make an incredible difference.

A new public fountain has appeared in central London, but look closer & you’ll see that it’s a actually a fountain of filth. The water is black, the human victims of the sewage crisis are vomitting streams of liquid, whilst surmounted by a smug water executive with a briefcase stuffed with cash.

The fountain commemorates one of the biggest environmental crimes in British history, where water companies stole tens of billions of pounds that was supposed to be spent on our sewage system, gave it to shareholders and executives and illegally poured billions of lites of sewage into our rivers, lakes and seas instead. The channel 4 docudrama about the sewage crisis, #dirtybusiness, starts at 9pm tonight. Watch it, get sad, get angry and then join the thousands of people around the country demanding an end to the sewage crisis.

@ZoeFranklinLD driving is a privilege, not a right, so why don’t we have permanent bans for people like this who aren’t changing their behaviour? Can you support this?

🚨In June last year, this vehicle was prohibited after an #SPCasualtyReduction officer discovered multiple dangerous defects, following a short pursuit. Original post: https://t.co/MnoaXQskbf

Today, the same #SPCasualtyReduction officer, stopped the vehicle in Walton-on-Thames. We're pleased to say the dangerous defects have been rectified.

Unfortunately, however, the driver blew 71ug at the roadside (over twice the legal limit) and was subsequently arrested.

Checks revealed that the driver had failed to notify his insurance company of his driving conviction from last year’s stop. As a result, the insurance company refused to confirm cover.

The vehicle was seized under section 165a of the Road Traffic Act.

In custody, the driver failed to provide a specimen and has been charged to appear in court. He now faces a lengthy ban, as this is not the first time he’s been arrested for drink driving.🛑

The number of murders recorded in London dropped to its lowest level per capita since records began. There were 97 homicides in the capital in 2025, down 36 per cent from 153 in 2019. 2025 saw a homicide rate of 1.1 per 100,000 people - safer than comparable global cities such as New York at 2.8, Paris (1.6), Toronto (1.6), Berlin (3.2), Los Angeles (5.6), Chicago (11.7), and Philadelphia (12.3).

Hi @Ocado - my dad is elderly/frail/has dementia and he’s just told me that your delivery guy often unpacks his shopping for him, without being asked to.

I don’t know if this is normal service for you, but I think it’s brilliant. I’d love for him to be recognised for it. 🥇

[20's Plenty for Us @20splentyforus]

If you want to improve productivity then you certainly don't want to arbitrarily kill or maim people on roads. Its a huge cost to society. 20mph/30kmh hardly impacts journey times in real world traffic and makes urban/village roads far more attractive for healthy walking and cycling.

[20's Plenty for Us @20splentyforus]

Ambulances are a good thing aren't they? Saving lives,etc. But they are very expensive. So why waste them on the 15,000 casualties on England's 30mph roads which could be avoided if UK Gov followed Wales/ Scotland by setting 20mph as an urban/village norm.https://t.co/EKPXOpKb3q

[Will Norman @willnorman]

The pedestrianisation of Oxford St will be transformational - making it a safer and much more pleasant area to visit.

We've published our plans for the first phase of this exciting project.

@Bikery1966 @SurreyPolice could you do this? It would give some reassurance that the reports aren’t just going into the void.

@Everyth1ngElec I heard Dan Ceasar on the Everything Electric podcast

…saying that there is free entry to the Everything Electric Farnborough Event if you’re wearing merchandise. Can you confirm which merch / the rules on this?

@ZoeFranklinLD can you help to stop the scourge of pavement parking?

[Adam Tranter @adamtranter]

It’s been four and a half years since the Government consultation on banning pavement parking with still no outcome.

“For most people, being pushed into the road to walk around cars is not nice. But for some, that is literally putting them off leaving the house.”

@jonholmes1 @radioacademy @BBCRadio4 @BBCSounds It doesn’t seem to have been released on bbc sounds :(. Any idea why?

I’m a bit worried that @Bromcom might have had a data leak. (I keep unique passwords)

£165,000 investment in Operation Snap to expand the team that take action against reckless drivers reported by drivers, cyclists and pedestrians across the West Midlands. 16,000 reports last year. https://t.co/uO1OgYXYk1
