If you’re on the #M8 going westbound, be in the right hand contraflow lane. Wind turbine stuck under a bridge so left lane not moving!

Media organisations need to consider limiting the comments on their articles as it brings nothing to it other negativity, vitriol and increased engagement rates. This is not a debate. Not everything needs a comment. They must consider their social responsibly.
The responses to this story on FB are absolutely horrific.

Cyclists belong on the road as much as anyone else. They have a right to be there and they have right to be safe. Irresponsible and impatient, consider how a close pass could kill someone and living with that for the rest of your life. Just take your time and respect others.

The destruction of our natural and historical environment is criminal.
Very disturbing reports today that a nationally significant ancient oak (over 6 metres in circumference) was felled in Whitewebbs Park in Tottenham. The facts are still not clear about who did it & why, but it appears to be on land owned by LB Enfield who did not give permission,

Also given the price of these bikes, it’s highly likely these people also drive, and probably pay WAY more tax over their lifetime than others complaining about them. So this idea that cyclists don’t pay tax is obscene and stupid.

This isn’t a commuting or casual cyclist (cycle lanes are largely for this). They’re a road cyclist, doing 24-30mph. If you’re impatient or going faster, highly likely you as the driver are breaking a speed limit and are the dangerous road user. Roads aren’t just for cars FYI.

Reminds me of Zurich 🇨🇭
🔍 A view of our patch on a sunnier day earlier this week! We call the area outside the station 'The Jungle' due to the maze of tracks that bring you to and from Glasgow Central. 😍

You could say this about any uni course - there is never guarantee of a job with any uni course or further training. Creative Arts is even worse IMO.
My daughter's training to be a teacher. Pretty much no chance of a job after her probation. And yet the unis are still taking on new students every year.

NHS Scotland doesn’t have trusts.
Latest @Telegraph on EHRC development This ‘story’ started out with one woman, and two dozen people on a live stream. In three weeks it has led to a blossoming of public and media understanding of the law, to Scottish Labour’s rejection of self-ID, and to the FM’s humiliation.

Centring an entire industry around alcohol consumption, when young people do not have the same drinking culture as previous generations, will ultimately end in, well, the end. Mix it up, offer something new and exciting - innovate!!
Interesting data from the Night Time Industries Association. While London saw a devastating 19.7% decline in nightclubs from March 2020 to Nov 2024, this was the smallest of any region. UK average decline has been 32.7%. Wales and Yorkshire suffered declines of over 40%.

Anyone: Oh look, a puppy! Look at this cute sweet puppy 😍 The internet: Your puppy is a government spy that controls us all with 5g and personally triggers me because I once had a fish that looked like a puppy and because of that you should remove this image and apologise

I still can’t fathom why grown adults close pass cyclists, shout at them out of their windows, and generally act aggressively towards them. For what? It’s really quite sad. Just give them space and get on with your day, and everyone makes it home alive. It’s really not difficult.

Hot take: this isn’t enough space and overtaking clearance should be much wider. It should be wide as you’d give another vehicle. Bicycles deserve as much respect on the road as any other mode of transport, if not more, given their vulnerability.

Who do you think brings the food? A magical bread fairy? Deliveries were also advised not to travel, therefore it’s not a surprise there is no food on the shelves.

This isn’t Kellie’s trampoline so don’t give them grief, but WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE. Tie down your belongings, it could kill someone. It’s actually incredible how people cannot use their brains.

It only continues to have agency and power if you keep feeding it.

Never underestimate the positive impact of colour and greenery in the environment to your mental and physical wellbeing.
