@nedboulting @millarmind @Petekennaugh Re. The Marcel Wust idea, this was exactly how they ran the pursuit stage of La Course in 2017 in Marseille.

"Home-educating parents are [...] frankly perplexed at why a Conservative Government, once so in favour of the family, pursues a basically socialist policy of state control."

[Clare Stoney @StoneyClare]

Now @JamesCleverly is Education Secretary. Hope he takes that long hard look at the #SchoolsBill and throws it definitively in the bin. A most un-Conservative piece of legislation, advancing a Nanny State.

Here's hoping @michelledonelan takes a long hard look at the #SchoolsBill and throws it definitively in the bin. A most un-Conservative piece of legislation, advancing a Nanny State.

@ElizzyBanks @Kirbsox @Tom_Whalley @cycling_podcast @Audioboom @edrudolphvelo Before you get your hopes up for riding around the 26km underground tunnel, the LHC already closed access and restarted collisions earlier this year. Shame as how cool it would be if you could do something like Chris Froome's channel tunnel time trial? https://t.co/cIMk6c00S2

@ElizzyBanks @Kirbsox @Tom_Whalley @cycling_podcast @Audioboom @edrudolphvelo I was working at CERN when that LHC route was created, although I never rode it. Cycling around that area with the Pays de Gex, Jura and Alps is absolutely fantastic, so I bet it will be an amazing experience for you. Can get a bit icy/snowy in winter though.

It is vital that the chair of the USS JNC notes that UUK’s cuts are not necessary and recognises her role in remedying the current situation and ensuring a fair outcome for members of the USS scheme. Sign the petition today #OneofUsAllOfUs https://t.co/kjr5uf4CjQ

There’s more than just 3 symptoms of COVID but are you clear on what to look out for? The more people aware, the quicker we can stop the spread. Here’s the 7 we all need to know to #beclearonCOVID Share the image far and wide!

Hey @adamafriyie 🙋 The Elections Bill is a dangerous power grab by Ministers to decide who can and can’t campaign at elections and remove the Electoral Commission's political independence. Britain shouldn’t go down this road. #HeyMP @BestForBritain https://t.co/lYyBX4Pi0d

@AnneJMcKay Rolling averages don't capture exponential increase well, do they?

@cycling_podcast @MerlierTim's win at the Giro today puts extra shine on @MarkCavendish's multiple wins over him at the Tour of Turkey, don't you think? Remember you discussing the context of Cav's wins at the time.

@velobetty Apples thrown out of a white van. And on another occasion a fist out the passenger window of a car. Both completely out of the blue and unprovoked.

@GeorgeFamilyEd Steam car?

@UsforThemUni @AdamAfriyie @nadhimzahawi @DHSCgovuk It really is the effect of lockdown. Just because you don't like what that implies doesn't make it not true. Most hospitalisations are under 70.

[Simon George @simongeorge71]

@AdamAfriyie @nadhimzahawi @DHSCgovuk That's the effect of lockdown not vaccinations. We'll have to get a lot further with those to make it safe to relax restrictions.

[Dr. Deepti Gurdasani @dgurdasani1]

A brief summary of the very precarious situation we are in now, and why we have a very narrow window to act in the UK. If we don't act now, it's likely the window for containing COVID-19 will pass- not just for the UK but globally. Here's why. Thread.

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

Why on earth are we STILL having to explain that the utterly abysmal test and test system is NOT NHS run.

It’s actually managed by a group of private companies who have been paid billions for their failure.
