Minnesota lawmaker Katie Jones rode in a cargo e-bike to the hospital for her baby's birth. Her husband, Peter Schmitt, pedaled the two miles there.

On the return journey, their son Hans – all 8 pounds and 1 ounce of him – was bundled up and handled it just fine, Jones said.

You’d think in this era of β€œMPs face increasing danger” there would be more outrage at newly elected Green MP Hannah Spencer being assaulted by transphobes but it’s nowhere to be seen on BBC News app even if you search her name

They arrived at it by weaselling out of calling out the transphobes and church groups funding them, and instead opted to throw a vulnerable group under the bus.

Paul Carruthers of Gender Plus: "NHS England's interpretation of the evidence is in contrast to every reputable expert body in the field of transgender healthcare and, as such we will assess their policy document and evidence-based review to better understand how they arrived at this decision."

People where I live have admitted to hitting flex posts on purpose to make cycle lanes accessible to cars and to discourage cycling. If they can do that without fear of consequence (neither damage to their vehicle nor social, other financial or legal consequences), flex posts aren't up to the job.

Brits urged to 'drive less' amid fears of soaring petrol prices due to Iran war | LBC It comes amid suggestions prices β€˜could jump to between 150p and 170p per litre’ over the conflict in the Middle East

Ebikes and better infrastructure. The answer is ebikes and better infrastructure. Fuel price spikes due to international geopolitics go from being a critical issue to an annoyance if you don't make it central to how people get around.

When drivers are comparing commuting anecdotes over dinner, at work etc they're fully aware of how sh*t some other drivers are. But when cycling advocates point out the same, the response is "wear a helmet and hi vis, and how about paying some road tax?"

Windows. Coveted with advertising at a Oxford station

At Oxford Station, they have had the bright idea of completely plastering the bridge between the entrance and platform 4 with HSBC marketing, blocking out 80% of the light. Just another example how capitalism drives enshitification. Making a note to avoid HSBC from now on.

Many of them were still on scene this morning, such as this group, watched over by Kenny Hunter's 2001 Citizen Firefighter statue outside the nearby Central Hotel, which is a memorial to all firefighters past and present. Thank you to you all.

Green Party say 'Hannah Spencer won't be silenced' after Manchester violence Hannah Spencer, Gorton and Denton's newly-elected MP, was ushered into a police car amid the unfolding chaos

The anti trans men who chased Hannah Spencer, this is exactly who these men are. Misogynists who just love an excuse to hound women for not doing what they tell us. All male terfs act like that. And the women are just as vicious www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..

Crude oil prices, showing a very sharp increase in the last day, from around 65 to 101 dollars per barrel..

Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy.

This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis.

44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

Shameful constitutional vandalism justified with outrageously dishonest propaganda pieces from the government.

Both the justice secretary and Prime Minister should hang their heads in shame.

THE GOVERNMENT HAS ABSOLUTELY NO MANDATE TO DO THIS.
