Hackney Council smuggled in an insider under cover of engaging residents in the appointment of the architect for 55 Morning Lane. They chose the Chair of the planning committee from 2006-2022 as one of three community reps. And they didn't tell anyone. https://t.co/ghblAmex2F

Hackney Council says Vincent Stops "applied to the Hackney Central Community panel as a local resident". BUT There was no call for new panel members. He doesn't live in Hackney Central. He's not on the list of Panel members. He got a place as an ex-councillor and in secret.

Introduce RUC now! "The [NZ] government has recognised reality & is getting on with the transition. "It isn't fair to have Kiwis who drive less & who can't afford a fuel-efficient car paying more than people who can afford one & drive more often." https://t.co/rW49EiCUK0

Explainer - The government calls it the biggest change to road funding in 50 years. But what are these RUCs that will replace the petrol tax?

On the way from Brighton to Newhaven a few days ago we rode on what must be a historic bus stop bypass. It was far preferable than our children riding on a high-speed, busy and dangerous road. Please don't try to ban these important pieces of infrastructure @Meg_HillierMP.

Pls can you engage with people who know about building active travel infrastructure @Meg_HillierMP? Banning bus stop bypasses means no continuous cycle network, thus cycling only for the brave. In a climate emergency. In an obesity crisis. Children unable to travel independently.

Yesterday there was another serious collision on Kenworthy Road involving a driver and a cyclist. How many more KSIs until @TfL take action and make this road safe for cycling? #VisionZero @SarahWoodberryD @mayorofhackney @willnorman @CarolineRussell @ActionVZ @hackney_cycling

It shouldn't take a death for action. This is clearly not a safe cycle route as in its current designation (I say designation as it was never designed for cycling). We need to hear what @TfL are planning to ensure there is never another casualty or fatality on LCN 8. #VisionZero

London Fields west entrance @limebike customers have parked multiple bikes illegally over a zebra crossing. Lime have a contract with @hackneycouncil to ensure users park bikes in designated parking areas to keep pavements safe and accessible. Sort it out. CC: @SarahWoodberryD

Because of this irritating popup (see image) when blocking yet another ad, due to who owns this place and for many, many other reasons, you can find me on Bluesky https://t.co/qFKwEK5EmM

🔥Unprecedented & simply magnificent. That time in Nov 2024 when a haka led by Aotearoa’s youngest MP 22yo Hana-Rawhiti Kareariki Maipi-Clarke erupted in the House stopping the Treaty Principles Bill from passing its first reading, triggering the Speaker to suspend Parliament.

This junction will impact TfL buses & is a major London junction redesign that will be in place for decades, it is within your remit & your responsibility to ensure it is safer, with a focus on Vision Zero design. There's already a better design available. Pls speak up. 4/4

5. It does not provide segregated cycle provision 6. It slows buses as cyclists are on the road 7. It removes a pedestrian crossing on Amhurst Rd west 8. It creates an environment for pavement cycling for cyclists unwilling to use the road 3/

2. It maintains a left turn that resulted in a cyclist seriously injured in 2023, therefore maintaining a known risk 3. It does not have safe right turns (automatic safety fail) 4. The design is deemed unusable by Hackney Cycle instructors 2/

.@willnorman as London's Walking & Cycling Commissioner your output on X seems solely congratulatory. I find it dismaying you haven't publicly said anything about @hackneycouncil's dangerous Pembury Junction plans. Why?! 1. Their junction fails JAT safety assessment! 1/
