"In almost every realm of government activity, this lot have made life worse. The policies referred to in every sentence in this article have damaged untold thousands of lives. The party has created the broken Britain it claimed its mission was to repair."

@JonnElledge I think one lesser discussed reason is SO much food in this country was made with/cooked in animal fats or boiled. Both fell out of favour post war and without it aren't the same.
I highly recommend having a look around the website Foods of England, it's fascinating.

It's literally impossible to get a lifetime driving ban in this country. No matter how clear-cut it is, you can just full on run someone over deliberately and you'll be back on the road before they've even got used to their disability road.cc/content/news/violent…

It's never a popular message, but I do feel quite often, and increasingly often, that living off money transferred in from other places has quite deeply damaged us up here. There isn't much sense of how much of what we have is paid for by other people's efforts made elsewhere.

"West Yorkshire, other than a small part in Leeds city centre and northwards to the university, is not going to ever meet the sort of densification criteria that might make a mass transit system financially viable" > West Yorkshire is dense. As dense as Greater Amsterdam.

Does Leeds actually not need a tram? Or any form of better public transport really? I'll just respond to two points of fact in this piece, which I think is a good summary of what I consider a very Conservative party anti-growth pro-decline summary. viewfromcullingworth.com/p/l…
@robmulholland listening to the patreon pod. Genuinely don't do yoga for a bad back. Good chance it will make it worse. It's terrible for bad backs.
Do pilates. It's a fundamentally different thing designed for injury recovery & works back/core/accessory muscles better.
@RM_Transit following on from your video on UK bus franchising you might find this interesting.
This is a local government association/urban transport group report into why the 2017 Bus Services Act hasn't revolutionised buses in the UK & won't as is.

I honestly cannot count the number of times I heard “just because I’m against HS2 doesn’t mean I support road expansion” snorted indignantly by massive eNGOs and armchair experts alike.

Check out the latest patreon episode for just £3 an month or the 7 day free trail because youll deffinatly remember to cancel.
I can't believe they finally went and did it and finally gave @Thephilellis the nomination for the proper main prize he's deserved for years. Consistently my favourite comedian at the fringe.

A measure of how much your town & city prioritises people over traffic, is how long you are left waiting here.

Sadly all too often off-street parking is limiting the opportunity to plant street trees 🌳
This removes any potential to green-up, condemning these streets to a grey future...
🌻Potential planting locations need protecting 🌻

ALT Two cars parked in front gardens, meaning that tree pit is condemned to be forever empty.

Range Rover blocking a bin lorry and parked across a dropped kerb, obstructing people in wheelchairs and those with prams, and forcing pedestrians into the road.
Slow clap for every Councillor and ‘concerned resident’ who fought to keep the streets of Soho choked with cars.
hahaahahahaha I hope he goes broke and is penniless and destitute. Scum.

7 houses and all of them have got mortgages so big that the interest rates increase outweigh the rent
That wasn't very prudent investment was it
