Cllr Ed Lamb

Bebington befuddled by bin bog blight A Merseyside mum was left with “so many questions” after a toilet was mysteriously left on top of a public bin. No explanation has been given for why it has…

"Cllr Ed Lamb said he saw the post and sent in a report to Wirral Council... the Bebington councillor has since confirmed the toilet has been removed."

This is my legacy 🔥 #GreenAction

Pro tip: Play Animal Crossing while watching Mr Mercedes. Helps control the nightmares

When cities are built with women in mind, they become more liveable for everyone.

A fairer planning approach that promotes a universal right to access the city, and considers every aspect of human life, from infancy to elderly; not just those in the so-called productive stage.

Our #RPUspecials joined @BrumPolice specials on Saturday evening for a Traffic Op, seizing 7 vehicles. 166 vehicles stopped, with 24 drivers reported for offences ranging from No Licence to No Seatbelt. Additionally, 32 drivers received education for varying offences.

Police in Birmingham held a roads policing operation, supported by volunteer Special Constables.

In one evening on one road, they pulled over 166 vehicles and took action in a staggering 1 in 3 stops.

Imagine if Roads Policing was properly funded!

One of my colleagues faced some particularly nasty abuse. It'll be great when it's all finished!

Indeed! Though you wouldn't believe the push back we had over the new plots in Bebington 👀

Driving test cheating soars with use of headsets and impersonators Experts blamed persistently long waits for practical tests while the DVSA blamed better detection.

car dependency is a helluva drug

A blue and white bus negotiating (very well) a tightly designed roundabout which has a cycle track on an arm just out of shot to the right.

It was quite Dutch-style roundabouty in Chichester this morning.

Running very well in my view.

My reflections tinyurl.com/3er5w77k on the Dept for @transportgovuk.bsky.social's #RoadSafety Strategy, launched yesterday. There are some positives, some 'mixed blessings' and some frustrating omissions, notably the lack of action to reduce speeds, boost roads policing or invest in active travel.

This was the prediction that came with our quote, Martin. I think it's been an unusually sunny year but I still hope we can do it 'faster'.

We're dependent on smart tariffs and a good export rate - who knows how long they'll last 🤷🏼‍♂️ So far, so good!

Nice one. I've saved a couple to watch 😎
