UN World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims - Theme: Remember. Support. Act. - English

On today's World Day of Remembrance for Road Victims it is worth noting that in the two years since Wales implemented a national default 20mph (32km/h) there have been 25% fewer casualties on such roads with over 1,000 fewer people killed or injured. youtu.be/efr3uVKpOwY

Britain is not a country of racist bigots.

Time for the decent majority to "take back control".

Our annual war commemoration: we will publish a war memorial every day from now until 11 November. Today: A memorial for the German dead of WW1 in Southgate. Not soldiers, but German civilians, interned as enemy aliens.

This 1950s stone relief, now dwarfed by the mural, represents an ethnically black, black friar on a donkey.

Migrants didn't cut council funding. Migrants didn't cut NHS funding. Migrants didn't close youth centres. Migrants didn't sell off council houses. Migrants aren't filling our rivers with sewage.

Farage and co. will tell you to point the finger at migrants.

Don't fall for it.

The foundation stone for the Royal Observatory was laid today 350 years ago. We've not yet found that but, on South Building, have found this lovely ship and 24 name panels honouring astronomers.
