Our Dr Bike is one of the best. He's called Charlie and he operates with 2 top class amateur bike fixers. They will adjust your bike to fit, pump up your tyres, index your brakes (which means fix that annoying click, I think), tighten your brakes and generally make everything work more wonderfully.

They will be on Quietway 1 at the Dunton Road/Lynton Way lights from 5-7pm tomorrow Thursday May 17th. A picture of Charlie's tool kit is here https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/events/dr-bike-on-qw1-4/ and I'm hoping in the future to add a picture of his smile because it gladdens the heart.

With the mechanics who do all the hard work will be an auxiliary who drums up business, keeps the queue in order and hands out maps and gossip. Everyone is welcome. You do need a bike to take advantage of this amazing offer. Everything is free. A map of QW1 and a picture of the nearest coffee stop are attached.

We are Southwark Cyclists and we are the borough branch of the London Cycling Campaign which campaigns for safer and more enjoyable cycling in London. I think that's a good idea, don't you. https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk

  I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co. He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.

  Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one. In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.

  I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
