Lots of folks are, understandably, not cool with a driver who does 81 mph in a posted 65, and then whines about being held accountable for that dangerous, antisocial behaviour. I stand with those folks. Violation of the social contract, my arse.

Because he's equal parts lazy fucker and slippery little shit, Farage took an IfG figure for achieving net zero, and presented it as if it will wholly come from the taxpayer, when most is private sector investment. Also left out: the cost of not achieving net zero. m.youtube.com/watch?v=m_R4...

"Like most of the British establishment, Cameron didn't take English nationalism seriously. It was an obsession confined to those they dismissed as 'swivel-eyed loons'. Nationalism was a Scottish & Irish disease (with a minor Welsh variant). He was, of course, profoundly wrong." A good read, this.

Yep. I can't say with confidence what you'll find half way between the truth and a lie, but it's very unlikely to be the truth.

Given the strong and growing evidence base that 20mph speed limits make roads and streets safer, the optics of this are terrible for the bus company. They're fortunate to be given time to back up their concerns; other councils may have just called their bluff. www.transportxtra.com/publications...
