@malumbu And what part of my  message is "unsubstantiated"?

You quoted Tommies as objecting to a bike lane as they presumably considered it unsafe.  By quoting them you are effectively agreeing with their position at the time.

Having cycled past Tommies scores of times I was neither aware that it was considered unsafe, nor did I see any reason for this.

If you are going to quote other people and organisations you need to tell us why they are correct.

I clearly am not calling you juvenille as I am sure you are aware.

Which is awful. But London has become a lawless Gotham city on Labour watch.  

And if you are an American millioner you can do no wrong - re: Lime & Co

Rather a sweeping statement about London being lawless.  Sort of thing that Trump and Musk would say about Khan

Autocorrect corrected, Musk not Must

No idea who "Must" is.

And it was fun -  and very important to me -  to be part of  the anti Trump demo.

Looking forward to next one 🙂

Well start a thread on floating bus stops.  It feels me with no joy that some road users are dangerous.  But this continued barrage against cyclists gets on my wick (to use polite language).

I don't endanger pedestrians and nor do any of the numerous cyclists that I know.  I similarly would not drive in a way that endangers pedestrians,

Here's a bit of reading.

Worth reporting to Lime, they’re very quick to respond. 

Done a lot. It get worst and worst am afraid. Lime and other ebike companies dump their bikes anywhere they want

It looks like as the supply overtake the demand 🤔

"they're very quick to respond" - meaning what exactly?

Moving ebike from location  A to location B?

Saw one the other day, left smack bang in the middle of a pavement.

How is that even allowed to happen when a photo is needed to be submitted when it's left.  They are a damn nuisance. 

So did I. It was impossible to pass it without walking into the road.

The newly paved, 'landscaped' and pedestrianised end of Melbourne Grove North, looks set to be a Lime Bike and Scooter pick up point. I wonder how much of the 'vital for safety' expanded pedestrian movement area will actually be given over to or even blocked by electric vehicles. Is this anything to do with the huge student accommodation development at Railway Rise?

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
