And killed by yet another dangerous driver 😢
Jez Cox barely holding it together here announcing Fin Tarling’s death
Your reminder that these two newspapers are owned by the same company. Reach plc isn't a serious news outlet. It is a ragebait farm to sell advertising and is a perfect demonstration of why the dead tree press is one of the biggest problems with British society today.
Lovely when companies like Taylor Wimpey choose to actively break the law #hosepipeban
Something tells me there is perhaps a typo in this @theindependent.bsky.social article about the abandoned reservoir in Llandudno
On one of Norway's electric car ferries. Very smooth, silent, quiet, and clean. Not sure why Amsterdam still didn't switch over from diesel ;)
Imagine costing we taxpayers £000s to run a pointless re-election campaign and then not having the grace to even bother turning up for the results. #GracelessGrifter
"Many of the thousands afflicted each year by criminal driving felt that “the harm they had suffered mattered less” than that from other serious crimes" - this double-standard is exactly what we called out in our work on motonormativity. Road crime is crime www.theguardian.com/law/2026/aug...
Victims of road crime feel ‘forgotten by system’, official review finds
Many of those affected in England and Wales think offences are not treated with the seriousness they deserve, says commissioner

MSM and specifically the Guardian indulging in false stories is terrifying
ICYMI, the Dobby grave story was completely fake. Like, just, totally not true in any way.

"The court heard Renshaw had previous convictions dating back to 1997 for driving offences including dangerous driving, taking a vehicle without consent and driving whilst disqualified." 150 hours of unpaid work and a year long driving ban. Fucking ridiculous.
Even safe streets advocates are saying this is "a little too far."
Revealed: just 20 out of of 6,600 Defra staff working on climate adaptation, as UK burns in fifth heatwave of this summer - FOI request by me @andyburnham.bsky.social needs to level with the country about the climate crisis & set out radical plan to tackle it 🧵 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

The Metropolitan Police Service. Very much part of the problem (not the solution). And of course WBC won’t take any action. @willnorman.co.uk
Nuremberg, a good movie. But perhaps should have noted that whilst Russia were “allies” they were certainly not on our side (frankly utter evil doers).
The financial crisis created by UK banks added about £1.2trillion of debt to all UK households. It’s crazy that the bank CEOs believe the banking rules should be relaxed. Private profits, socialised losses. 🫣
