This is because they have spent all of their time policing celebrations
A damning new crime report shows that in 48% of counties, police have failed to solve a single burglary. This includes Nottinghamshire where a daring daylight robbery recently went unpunished

For the first time since junior school, I have had to use word art. What a throwback.

My latest thoughts on ebikes: as I have mentioned at some point, I have a deep hatred of illegally modded ebikes (ie don't require the user to peddle). This is partly because it is against the rules and party because of the dickheads who ride them.

These bikes could form a useful part of green travel but the regulation needs to keep pace. At the moment, they are too quick, are low quality and often use the bike lane putting cyclists and pedestrians at risk.

I know there are significant pressures on the police but you can spot a dodgy ebike from a mile away. They should be seized until the law changes and then the dodgy ones should continue to be seized.

I despare for any admissions tutor having to watch hours of videos, all probably extremely painful.
A video message could soon replace the personal statement, the university admissions body said as it announced it was scrapping the written essay thetimes.co.uk/article/ucas-…

My latest active travel musing: lighting away from roads. Yesterday I was cycling back from Wythenshawe Hospital and my route takes me through the park: a very efficient cut-through, pleasant, with no traffic.

The real question here is how many active travel journeys would have been made in the summer but weren't due to how grim the park is in the dark?

This should all be a relatively cheap fix, just add some more lights along the path. It is way too late to fix the issues with how the tram runs through the Wythenshawe Park to Roundthorn section.

It wasn't long ago that England needing 167 to win in the fourth innings, meant you would be very worried about them falling significantly short. #bbccricket

It's a shame that @MFTnhs nurses aren't able to walk out today because of union-busting laws brought in by the Tories where apathy can defeat action. Solidarity with @theRCN and especially those who aren't able to have their voices heard today.
