@Greeg79X@neilmwhite An EV isn't a single car. It's a type of car.
It's a silly as saying your petrol car can't be £20 a month to insure, a Porche 911 is £800 a year.
Two risks:one battery damage (all EVs but different model different prices) and the risk of insane performance (absolutely not all).
@fergbyrne@DreyfusJames It's not narrow at all.
All the other cyclists in the video use the road because it's quicker.
Pedestrians have priority at all times. Rule H2.
He cycles down it "because he can"
He has a right to do that. Pedestrians should not obstruct don't need to jump out of the way..
@NormanLeedsFRSA@88e3f4bf72184f5@BenGrahamUK Those aren't the toilets in question in Cambridge and are very unlikely to be in the UK even given lack of paper and disposable bin.
So discussion about fixtures and fittings is a bit theoretical here.
@KMorrice@SimonDanczuk It's Cambridge, not Bradford, in a tourist area that gets 8 million visitors many Asian.
The signs are written in English &Chinese.
Chinese tourists spend £1500 each on average in the UK.
Muslim toilets have the bum gun for washing. These don't.
So guessing you're wrong.
@taxqueen49@SimonHarrisMBD They are. Elderly Chinese have a commode chair.q
There are 10 standard toilets and an accessible one at ground level.
The toilets are down a flight of steps anyway. This is part of a refurb to make them useable again.
It's in a high tourist area with lots of foreign tourists.
@slb2732223 Cambridge council have to live in the real world though, where not everyone is as considerate as yourself
Again, this is the sensible pragmatic solution and isn't deserving of the fuss made
If you'd tackle a squatter aboard and not appreciate a sit down, you haven't tried one
@MikeyCycling@JayMBurton So why are you the only cyclist in the video on the pavement?
Almost like proving a point is more important.
"General principle: Treat shared paths as pedestrian-priority spaces where you are a guest"
Dinging a bell is a warning, not an instruction for people to move aside
@slb2732223 It's a pragmatic and sensible solution.
The issue you obviously have no experience of is the creative way people can find to use what's available to suit themselves.
This is infinitely worse for everyone. 👇
The signs aren't made because there is no market.
@slb2732223 This is a tourist spot not toilets for locals (whatever ethnicity).
On site their are 14 stalls. 10 for sit down , 3 squats and and accessible one.
They are charging £1 to cover a onsite cleaner to keep everything fit and proper.
What is wrong with that?
@slb2732223 You'd have the choice to stay home👇
This isn't about complying or culture. This is just being welcoming to tourists who come to spend money. Nobody demanded it.
When Beijing held the Olympics they fitted 3,000 western toilets for athletes and press. No need to. No fuss.
@mixoparthenos1@SBarrettBar@drivebylawyer5 There are ten other sit downs and an accessible one at ground level.
It's mainly for Asian tourists who prefer a squat as they don't like sitting where others have sat.
There's 6 million visitors and it's near where they arrive
Tourists inject £30 billion into the economy
@FawkesSir@SBarrettBar They aren't for migrants.
It's for tourists. Tourists that spend on average £1500 a trip to the UK. It's near where the coaches park full of tour groups. Many prefer a squat public toilet.
There's also 10 other sit downs and an accessible one in the same complex.
@JREw1ng@NormanLeedsFRSA@BenGrahamUK Then you'd use the other 10 toilets or the accessible one at street level.
This is a popular tourist spot with 6 million visitors. Many prefer a squatter.
Tourists bring a lot of money to the UK. I think it's good to cater for them.
It also costs £1 to get in, for a cleaner.
@HilaryJFCMA@BasilTheGreat The toilets are downstairs, always were. They have built a new accessible toilet at ground level.
There are 10 other pans to choose from.
6 million visitors a year arrive there. Many prefer a squat in a public toilet.
But there's outrage making tourists a bit happier.
@maryBCHR@PhilipsTruthTM@BasilTheGreat It's intended for nationalities that find sitting on public toilets disgusting.
I can assure you my wife does wear tights and knickers and can manage admirably
It's at a tourist spot that gets 6 million visitors. There are 13 pans in total and one accessible at ground level.
@PengilleyIan@BasilTheGreat It's at a tourist spot where there are 6 million visitors. There are 13 pans. 3 squats and a disabled toilet at street level. £1 charge to pay for a cleaner to keep clean.
Apparently, it's bad though.
@dianemo87846011@WanderingIan@paulbristow79@camcitco In a place where 6 million tourists visit, huge amount from overseas.
Maybe some multilingual signage?.
Not like we want to make tourists welcome that spend £32 billion pounds and support a industry with 2.4 million jobs.
Bloody foreigners.
@CliveSimpson63@CarolinejGoode There are 13 stalls 10 standard and one for the disabled UPSTAIRS at street level.
8 million tourists visit the spot many from Asia and the council decided rather than fighting the demand they'd provide for it and charge £1 to keep everything clean.
And that is bad because?
