Hi @southamptoncc can you inform me how to book a slot at the HWRC for access by cargo bike please. In the past we could just turn up, so the lack of a registration plate hasn't been a problem, however with the booking form I can't book a slot without one..

@TimattwellTim @SouthamptonCops Why would they take action against people doing legal things?
I think that you will find that cycles are allowed to use Above Bar Street.

Remember,
#Suella wants violence on Saturday,
Remember,
#Suella wants arrests on Saturday.

She has whipped this into a storm through lies and inflammatory language on purpose.

The violence will be started from the racists, not the peace march, but that won’t matter to her.
It’s probably not what you will be told.

If you’re marching make sure you take videos.

When are you going to get rid of this sewer rat Rishi?

There are 50,000 pregnant women in Gaza, facing giving birth in a war zone.

14 of Gaza’s hospitals have been destroyed.

180 women a day are giving birth without adequate care - including Caesarians without anaesthetic.

We need a humanitarian pause now.

@flashbanggeorge @jonburkeUK The alternative solution would be to smash all cars being used or parked inconsiderately by selfish people until they switch to a less hostile mode of transport.

Regarding the Plan for Drivers, I cannot summon up the energy to offer a useful take, because where to even begin?

I’m not sure I have ever felt more climate struggle fatigue than when confronted with this

@dhlexpressuk Too late now I'm afraid, the race started yesterday...

[Wilf Chaplin @wilfthered1]

I wonder if twitter can help.
The @oceangloberace starts tomorrow.
#SpiritOfHelsinki have 2 sails stuck with @dhlexpressuk @DHLGlobal.
The sails have cleared customs, and are in #Southampton. The yacht is in #Southampton. #DHL won't go the last mile and make the delivery.

[Wilf Chaplin @wilfthered1]

Can anyone think of a way to get #DHL to do the decent thing and get the sails delivered in time, or at least let someone collect them?

When you think about it, taking people from different parts of the world where they will have differing levels and kinds of immunity, and creating a concentrated population, is a clear recipe for a plague ship, even without #Legionella. #BibbyStockholm

For years it's been "Blue Ocean Event," where Arctic sea ice extent drops below 1M km² at its September low, driving a feedback loop leading to a permanent ice free Arctic and rapid Northern Hemisphere heating.

And then the Antarctic anomaly just happened. And we're like, WTF???

[David Ullrich @DavidUllrich202]

The Earth is almost never shown like this, and in the meantime, this is our planet from the side of the Pacific Ocean. One side of the Earth is almost completely covered with water (the Pacific), while landmass is almost all on the other side.

I've seamlessly and subtly edited the Sunday Telegraph headline to better reflect the story.

I'm on my way to talk about another vessel, somewhere a little further south, but some may recognise why I was excited to see this small ship...
