Lining up to interview Farage for some reason…

Leith!!!

Leith Walk. Ideal for that with tram in the middle. One can dream…

I still think it’s the same argument - “it inconveniences me, so I don’t like it”. There are better ways of controlling tourism than making places worse for everyone. I certainly welcome banning cars from city centres. (As usual, with certain exceptions.)

Probably because it’s just nimbys complaining about any changes. Edinburgh is a very touristy place anyway, this will only make it more accessible to all, locals like myself including.

Leith Walk should be pedestrianised at least on one side. What a wasted opportunity that was.

I wonder if it’ll have a bike lane…

Is this real? Do they know, that red lightsaber is the dark side, aka empire… Justsaying.

Bloody cyclists!

Also - more infrastructure. More people cycling, more safely cycling. Banning micro mobility is clearly not working; why are e-scooters still illegal? Such a complicated issue, and he has all the answers… /s

It would be also helpful if he was similarly concerned about drivers breaking law and endangering others. Very convenient to talk about dangerous cycling and point fingers at e-bikes. #Motonormativity in action : /

Jealous. And Edinburgh is actually not bad in UK terms…

Sigh… Oh well, maybe next moral panic then. Nothing seems to be quick in the uk currently. 😞 Or maybe we’ll just grow the f. up and let people live their lives as they want.

So I order to get quick autism assessment now I need to pretend to be trans? What a f*cking time to be alive : /

This is particularly concerning, given our ageing population. Motonormativity…

That’s a nice touch, but he’s still out and orange monstrosity is golfing again : /

I’m a brainworm, and I approve this message.

Blaming cyclists for everything. Weather including : )

Yeah, it’s so painfully obvious once you start to notice. We can’t obstruct those poor cars. Nice moon, by the way!

Da faq?!
comment in response to post
Because those pseudo-progressive politicians are too scared to lose those potential (and imaginary) right-wing voters. Same shit, different country. Sigh…

I remember getting a fine for riding a bike through Old Town in Wroclaw (Poland) ages ago. It was so refreshing to see bikes there on my last trip! Shame the progress is as slow as a car stuck in traffic : )
