There are some very smart cis people writing about the right wing influence from US on UK and I am begging them to stop ignoring what is happening to trans people. They are not coming. They are here.

It is absolutely fucking ridiculous that every British media article about trans people has a quote from either Helen Joyce or Maya Forstater, like next level bullshit, but it's a good sign they can't find anyone else. When these two losers expire there won't be anyone to call up

Ex-Labour minister calls for wealth tax and public investment in June spending review. UK needs an economic reset, end of cuts/austerity and neoliberal policies. Can't revive economy without boosting the purchasing power of the bottom 50%. Must redistribute. Tax the ultra-rich.

Climate activist Greta Thunberg will try to sail to Gaza tomorrow with other ships aiming to break Israel's seige and bring food to starving kids and adults. She tried the same about a month ago and her ship was bombed in a drone strike.

Swifts are amazing. A single swift can fly 2 million miles in its lifetime with a top speed of nearly 70 mph 😳 Yet they’re under pressure as never before. Please do as @hannahbournetaylor.bsky.social asks - lobby your MP to overturn this Govt’s obdurate refusal to mandate swift bricks in new homes 👇

Every. Single. Time. Crybaby motor lobbyists whining about adding seconds to their journeys vs many fewer children killed and maimed by drivers should be reason enough for any politician to press on with this stuff

A good little op-ed - of course @garethdennis.bsky.social puts across well why the US tech industry dislikes rail - it is an open source system devoid of proprietary elements. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/18/o...

Oh look at that 🤯 Tanks on standard gauge wagons with gauge change bogies to allow them to be used on Swiss metre gauge lines www.bahnbilder.de/bild/Schweiz... And you’re telling me that instead of that we should re-gauge to move military equipment?

I have spent all day digging into safety rules for the Channel Tunnel, and damn it's complicated And no, I have not forgotten the #CrossChannelRail final report, but working out how possible future rolling stock complies with tunnel safety rules is taking a while and needs to go in that report!

Your regular reminder that car ownership skews rich, especially in London. It’s obvious and boring to repeat, but please remember this graph the next time someone is crying Social Injustice about measures to reduce car dominance over the city’s streets content.tfl.gov.uk/travel-in-lo...

I did a lot of filming on the 13 hour Aberzance journey, which will take me quite a long time to edit together! While you wait, I recommend checking out @thetflthree.bsky.social's video (which I feature in) to see the section of the journey between Cheltenham Spa and Tiverton! youtu.be/hxXS7iuPGXQ
