It also won't stop them killing someone whilst driving it

You’d think in this era of β€œMPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name

This crisi is absolutely going to prove that EVs were invented to save the car industry, not the planet.

Everywhere is walkable so long as its from a car, apparently

Rich people genuinely get more space to drive their cars in than poor people get to live in.

I'd guess it looks like less of a beauty spot with all those cars parked all over the place too but πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ what can they do (other than not drive, of course)?????!

These people are always so angry aren't they. Always on the verge of nasty name calling, put downs and rudeness.

How is it possible that this has been scrapped, when the article says it was approved last July by councillors?! That should make it a certainty surely!

Yeah these are both true 😬 I've had such awful post natal depression both times though that I had to convince myself that I didnt ask for it either lol πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ. 11yrs between my 2 because it was so awful, but now youngest is 6 and eldest almost 18 I wouldn't change a thing!

I seriously hope nobody lectures you for being honest: social media is FULL of nonsense about enjoying every moment etc etc.

Truth is it is HARD. its expensive, it turns your life upside down, & it feels never ending.

If you hate it, or parts of it, be honest (&kind) to yourself.

I HATED it all!!

Absolutely, even when they're on their own drivers ride side by side!

And not just the Green Party as a whole..... but Hannah herself as a woman will be scrutinised like never before. Her hair, how she dresses, how she speaks, whether or not she's wearing makeup, her family life, her education. Nothing will be off the table and there's nothing they won't sink to.

πŸ˜† I dont know off the top of my head I'm afraid: I'm in Newport S Wales& regularly use our 1 here.
But, a quick Google leads me to believe there is a 'Bristol Repair Cafes' FB page which acts as a notice board for all of Bristol? Might be worth a look to see if there's some useful info?

Repair cafe to the rescue for that zip!

Moment road rage roofer breaks pensioner's eye socket The 68-year-old had been obeying the 20mph limit before he was brutally assaulted

THIS is the outcome of culture-war nonsense that politicians &media have whipped up over 20mph limits.
A thug feels entitled to do this to another human,just because they 'dared' to be a courteous driver & obey the speed limit.

But 'war on motorists' etc etc 😬

He actually says the yellow lines were painted 'to deter non residents from parking there'.

No, no the yellow lines are for everyone buddy.

Think how much good 50k could do donated to charity.Or basically anywhere that provides for normal ppl.
But no.
These total bastards have got more money than they know what to do with, & they'd genuinely rather it go into pockets of other rich bastards,than poor ppl get ANY help at all.

The photo with that article has a cyclist in dark clothes that everyone can clearly see, too πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ. Proves the argument is nonsense!

Love how the photo with the article clearly demonstrates how you CAN see cyclists in dark clothes, which voids the argument.

Dont ppl realise hi-viz doesn't 'make its own light'? You can only see it when light is shining on it. The same as you can see me on my bike with your lights shining at me.

Can the Active Travel Coordinator coordinate you all parking bikes in car spaces? See how long it lasts once its inconveniencing drivers rather than cyclists? πŸ˜†

Just started using 1, after a series of awful overtakes on local streets whilst my 6yo is on the back.
Pass Pixi has made little difference sadly.The camera doesn't deter them, but when I was knocked off last yr by a taxi driver, police didnt pursue as no camera.
So its there for evidence if needed

It really is @peterstefanovic.bsky.social ; we already have free parking at hospitals in Wales. Its a costly mess. Does the campaign talk about free public transport too? Or just car parking???

As Will says, its a shortsighted response that takes money from clinical care to subsidise cars.

Great news, good luck with it and I hope we see some excellent new Spokesafe lockers springing up at stations soon! πŸ‘

Its unbelievable how many of the people who 'liked' the original post have this sort of thing in the bio, along with 'nature lover', 'environment' etc etc.

Its all BS

Don't you hate it when fighting age men flee their own country, leaving their families behind, then expect other people to give them a handout.

People on their own in cars taking up the entire lane, complaining about a cyclist daring to even be there is just so ridiculous.

And the nonsense of saying cyclists 'force them' to dangerously overtake etc.

You absolutely do not 'have' to do any of that.

Do you take up less space in your car when on your own than you do with passengers?Or do you&your car take up all the space regardless?

Do you listen to music whilst driving?

Why is it different for you (1 human) to the cyclist (1 human)?

Stop putting your convenience over another humans safety.
