🧵📢 NEWS: TfL and @london.gov.uk publish Vision Zero Action Plan 2, setting out plans for zero road casualties in London...
🤔 Our take on it? Broadly, we're in favour, and TfL are making some bold promises - the first of those being a doubling of the cycle network by 2035 🚲

"The women who changed the system so I could be here"
@greenpartyhan.bsky.social pays homage to women who fought for change in her maiden speech during the International Women's Day debate.
I did also have people filming in my face.
Unfortunately sometime protest can be violent. See the Suffragettes. But assuming the violent oppression of Transphobia is “civilised“ is incredibly misguided.
Having mounted a peaceful counter protest at the Hampstead Ponds when Kelly Bunchofnames & Forstater were there protesting Trans inclusion, having gotten shouted at close to my face, your lot are not as “civil” as you think.
Another transphobe so terrified of Trans people that she... went to a concert to fund legal support for Trans rights.
“She’s the exception, I am the rule.”
Such articulate cutting through of the nonsense around puberty blockers and eg Keira Bell’s detransitioning from Stephanie Lynnette on GMB this morning. It is also a refreshing relief to see a trans person actually being allowed to speak for once!
Would've thought that would put her at risk of a UTI, but each to their own I guess...?
I thought they were terrified of being in spaces with Trans Women!?! They clearly aren't if they choose to go where there were likely to be thousands of Trans people. And of course nothing happened!
They know they're not at risk. They just want to hate, bully and villify Trans people.
Again, the Onion nailed it
I'm proud to co-sign this letter with colleagues from across the political spectrum. The abuse aimed at Hannah Spencer this weekend was beyond reprehensible.
We’ve bridged the political divide to send one clear message: harassment has no place in our democracy.
"Ministers want to make it harder for inquests to pass verdicts of unlawful killing, which have been crucial in getting justice for women who committed suicide after suffering abuse."
I don't think anyone expected Labour would change course after its electoral drubbing but this is 🤯
“Ronald Schlump”?
Didn‘t condemn Elon Musk’s sieg heil tho did they?
Antisemitism isn’t being a Nazi, it’s hosting a Palestinian criticising Israel’s genocide against Palestinians. 😑
Beeb would rather quote a Labour source bashing @zackpolanski.bsky.social on their front page than report on a genocide within the UK. @lauraphillips.bsky.social
I’ve been using LLMs a little more. I know they’re terrible for the environment but I was looking to find relevant citations for an essay I’m writing). Honestly, I really don’t feel they’re much better than “Ask Jeeves” was back in the day! Yes I am indeed an Geriatric Millennial.
Surely Hacker deserves a space on our note just for this.

The screaming subtext here is a call for ethnic cleansing, in a healthy pluralistic government he’d be censured and expelled
"[T]he Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention [assessed] in June 2025 that the UK’s current policies towards trans and intersex people meet the ninth pattern of genocide."

More than 91,900 women have already signed to say that trans exclusion is not in our name.
We’re now aiming for 100,000 signatures, and it would be incredible to reach that mark by tonight with the help of everyone at the Trans Mission Live concert and everyone following along from home.
I wonder if Labour have really thought through the implications of creating multiple desperate, persecuted underclasses whilst making it clear the courts will not provide justice and there is no peaceful route to change they will accept.
Meanwhile, if you are cis...
Our dependency on fossil fuels makes us vulnerable. Wars across the world are pushing up prices for households in the UK.
Why keep waiting for the next crisis? We need to transition to clean power as fast as we can to protect people and our economy.

I'm a retired librarian, a beer afficionado and swimmer.
I do no harm to anybody. I just want to live out my llife in peace.
But Labour want me eradicated because I happen to be trans.
