Statue of Lemmy (Motorhead) in Burslem. Press the nose of the roundel and deafening metal riffs drown out the traffic on the A50.

Sooner or later this redundant marvel will die of arson or neglect. Why not send it in boxes to www.britishmuseum.org Replace Elgin's marbles with Wedgwood's terracotta?

Delighted to belatedly discover yesterday that after several years tenure Redrock in #stockport is no longer the current Carbuncle Cup holder. @stockportcouncil.bsky.social It's worthy successor here in Liverpool by Broadway Malyan. @thefence.bsky.social

So I suggested SK rethink Greek St roundabout as space for people. Met predictably misinformed councillor tropes: - because a road is busy it is necessary - building pedestrian space is more expensive than highways - road closure(sic) would impact residents, local businesses and visitors negatively

In less than a year Utrecht transformed its unattractive and busy inner ring road into a livable and green city boulevard. Less car traffic, new trees, more green, cleaner air, improved livability. A win on many levels!

Road closures at running events clearly show how much public space is reserved exclusively for cars and how that space could be used differently, for many more people.

“A review of scientific research has found that pedestrians and cyclists are 44% more likely to be killed in a collision with an SUV or light truck, compared to a passenger car. The outlook is even more dire for children, who are 82% more likely to be killed when struck by the larger vehicles.”

An early 20th century advertisement for James Templeton & Co. The advert shows the glorious carpet factory designed in the Italian Gothic style by William Leiper. The facade was modelled on the Doge's Palace in Venice, and intended to mask the more prosaic weaving mill behind.

So pleased Keir Starmer has joined The Tory Party with his ‘Island of Strangers’ speech. I’ve given him an Enoch Powell style moustache. Rather dashing don’t you think? What’s he saying next? Rivers of Blood? Get Brexit Done? Build Back Better? This Lady’s Not For Turning? 🇬🇧
