It’s fine that Farage goes to Australia for I’m a Celebrity. If his first task is to travel there in a dinghy, and when he arrives, Ant and Dec shout at him on the beach through a megaphone ‘here’s another one, swarming here just to make easy money’, then he’s sent to Rwanda.

I’m often asked about/criticised over posting pics on my upright bike without wearing a helmet. This piece explains why it’s a much more nuanced debate than most people take the time for. If you’re interested, please do read in full. Thanks @rouleur for the space to explore.

Using 'accident' to describe a crash presumes no one was at fault, and implies the crash was unexpected and unavoidable. In reality, road deaths are preventable and often caused by the actions of drivers, and failures in infrastructure. It's time to end the language of denial

In 1972, the Amsterdam neighbourhood of De Pijp saw clashes between parents who wanted safer streets for kids and drivers who wanted to cut through.

I went to visit yesterday, 51 years later.

The traffic filters and playgrounds remain. It is a place many people want to live. 🧵

@London_Cycling @RoadsXR @tedthornhill @DailyMailUK Won’t he get fired from that rag for a) cycling and b) being anti- car 😏

[Dutch Cycling Embassy @Cycling_Embassy]

"The Netherlands is both a cycling and drivers' paradise. Because of the many short trips done by more space-efficient means of travel such as foot, bicycle and public transport, much road space is saved for people who want to (or need to) drive." (p. 36)

Using 'accident' to describe a crash presumes no fault, and implies that it was unexpected and unavoidable. In reality, road deaths are preventable, often caused by the actions of drivers, and the failure of our transport and legal system. It's time to end the language of denial.

In the latest edition of “Cars Ruin Everything” take a look at these ugly road markings in the French village of Bauné. They have been painted to slow motorists in a 19mph zone. https://t.co/v8eIyvFsn5
