Farage is making it very plain that if Reform wins power they will permit no change or scrutiny to their plans from parliament, the judiciary or officials, under a state of emergency. Anyone who objects will be replaced.

A third runway at Heathrow risks higher emissions and greater impacts on local communities. That's the wrong trade-off for London and it's why I'll continue to vehemently oppose these plans.

Data centers contribute to higher power bills by driving up electricity demand, requiring expensive grid upgrades, and raising wholesale market prices.

As hotter, drier summers become more frequent, ground under houses can shrink & drag down foundations. Older properties are more at risk. Areas most vulnerable include London, Essex & Kent 😬

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen, was filled with cars until a 2 year pedestrianization pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business,” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.

"A cyclist can go 3 or 4x faster than a pedestrian, but uses 5x less energy. A bicycle is a perfect transducer to match metabolic energy to impedance of locomotion. Equipped with this tool, humans outstrip the efficiency of not only all machines, but all other animals as well." —Ivan Illich
