As govt proposes pouring billions into so-called carbon capture, please remember there is not a single example on earth where this actually works at required power-station scale. It is chiefly promoted by - guess who? Fossil fuel lobbyists.

@darrendotcom Because you're randomising MAC addresses? HW details? Are you in reality a ninja?

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 Government using 'economically illiterate' research paid for by water companies to dismiss calls for public ownership.

Why are the voices of private water firms being heard above those of anti-sewage groups?

Exeter High Street. Absolutely no excuse for this @FedEx attitude. Driver was uninterested in moving but offered to maybe improve "if that'll make you feel better". It's not about me, it's those with buggies, mobility scooters etc who are trapped.

@trevsharp Oh dear, drastic plastic.

Steve Bray says we need to rejoin the Single Market, no Referendum just do it.

RT if you agree.

[Exeter Cycling @ExeterCycling]

🧵1/ RT please. This matters.

3yrs ago we held a vigil & die-in to mark Maria's death - killed while cycling home from her NHS hospital shift & crossing Barnfield Rd/Western Way.
Do watch the video of that vigil.
The killer driver has now been sentenced

@trevsharp Those lizards are very well camouflaged. Can't say the same for the lighthouse though. Far too obvious.

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

No one is above the law and certainly not this Government

If you agree RT this widely

We've joined 36 other organisations urging @JamesCleverly to rethink proposals in the #CriminalJusticeBill that would fine and imprison people simply because they're forced to sleep rough. https://t.co/roQx1n2cop

Hi @JetPlantHire. One of your drivers needs reminding of the Highway Code, and his responsibilities. Parked on the pavement this morning, alongside double yellows, obstructing the footway. Just waiting, not actually doing anything. Quite unpleasant too. YK72FCV

@trevsharp A clear case of inflation. Tyres are much bulgier these days.

[John S @macanics]

@trevsharp Is this a new Dr Who ep?

Ah Christmas.
Was there ever a more Christmassy Christmas time for Christmas than Christmas? Of course not. Chop those chestnuts like it's 1984 all over again. Christmas!

[Greig Johnson @GreigARJohnson]

Merry Christmas folks, and a happy 2024.

I once called for the first nationwide lockdown and recommended it as a policy to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, but 3 years later I had completely forgotten all about it or to mention it in my book

[John S @macanics]

@muffmasterh @DulwichRoads @DulwichCollege @MetCC Nope.

[John S @macanics]

@muffmasterh @DulwichRoads @DulwichCollege @MetCC Stopping within the controlled zone (the zig-zag markings) or on the crossing is a #s25RTA offence if it's not specifically to let someone cross. So a car stopping to alight passengers is not allowed.

[John S @macanics]

@trevsharp What a marvellous thread.

[John S @macanics]

@trevsharp @robert_hyde Humour? No need to faucet.

[John S @macanics]

@BiddyBike @AmazonUK @AmazonHelp I see you got the standard "Let's not talk about this in public, shall we?" reply.
