Lembit Opik - what's that all about?

Is it just me or does anyone else find him very strange? He's an MP, but seems to like going onto TV just to big up his relationship with the Cheeky Girl. (Sad for her that she is only every known as "One of the Cheeky girls").


Also a friend of mine used to be in a creative writing group with L.O. back in Belfast 20 odd years ago, and thought he was a bit of a git back then.

He went out with a weather girl before the Cheeky Girl. Sian Lloyd if my memory serves me well. Obviously he likes the showbiz lifestyle and the limelight and publicity that goes with it.

I can't see the attraction myself but he certainly looks like he's been whupped with the ugly stick.

It's a face of two halves (I just looked at a picture of him)


If you cover the bottom half he looks like a cruel accountant.

If you cover the top half - village idiot.


Amusingly, the picture I looked at had been named 'Opik Headshot'.

    • Quicker than a car…crikey how fast do they go?   I have PTSD from a folding bike I had as a kid that snapped in half when I did a jump! I look at things like this and Bromptons and get the fear which is why I stick to sturdier bikes!
    • Earl…that isn’t misinformation it comes from the very report the 20% increase (in cycling stages) claim was taken from and regurgitated by many without actually checking the facts. Unless, of course, you are saying that TFL is spreading misinformation….;-)   Here are all the reports: https://tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publications-and-reports/travel-in-london-reports   Then scroll down to the Travel in London 2023 - Active Travel trends (pasted below to make it easy for you to find) and then you’ll find everything I have quoted from page 13…. https://content.tfl.gov.uk/travel-in-london-2023-active-travel-trends-acc.pdf   And I am actually shocked that, despite all the investment, that growth has been minimal…hardly the 10x growth Will Norman claimed was coming…..   Cycling made up 4.5 per cent of trips in London on an average day in 2022, up from 3.6 per cent in 2019.      
    • Because it's affordable and plenty of choice.   It's a changing and will continue to do so. As with most areas going through the gentrification process it will be all about the night time economy meaning a saturation of drinking holes and ' cool and vibrant ' licensed eateries. Brixton mark 2. I think Covid slowed down the pace of change in the next ' up and coming ' areas and has given many prospective ventures itchy feet and pause for thought because there's less footfall and disposable cash than there was pre covid. Brixton for example is much quieter and visibly down on numbers in both bars and eateries. Across London clubs and music venues are dropping like flies.
