I'm at @velo-city-conference.com. I've now made all 3 presentations done, highlighting how #Disabled cyclists are impacted by issues (bikelash, cost & cycle parking, and how we relate to infrastructure). Been good to make contact with ppl working to improve #cycling for Disabled ppl elsewhere.

I'm really pleased to say #Ani4deputy of the #GreenParty (England and Wales). Ani is an excellent person with great judgement and commitment who has my full support.

They would save more than the cost in NHS spending. Govt position is illogical.

Good to see logic has prevailed. For now.

I'm delighted to see @anist.bsky.social is standing to be Deputy Leader of the #GreenParty. Over the years I've known Ani, I've been consistently impressed by Ani's calm dedication, and commitment to the Party and its values.

I’m backing @zackpolanski.bsky.social for Leader of the Green Party of England & Wales. #backzack

I'm travelling across Europe, to speak up for #Disabled #cyclists at @velo-city-conference.com. Today, home-Berlin. Tomorrow Berlin-Gdansk (Poland). Journey is going smoothly so far. Famously tricky 25 minutes Brussles connection went OK after the Eurostar, & I've changed train at Cologne OK, too.

This case caused us a lot of work @wheelsforwellbeing.org.uk. Kate led for us: it's great to see her efforts being recognised. Related work goes on. As Kate says "We need...urgent national guidance...it’s never acceptable to remove a Disabled person’s aids unless there’s...immediate risk” #Equality
