An EPIC thread on my unintentionally detailed new report investigating the very real threat posed to pedestrian space, disabled mobility and walking and wheeling targets by the national tidal wave of public on-street EV chargers needed to reach net zero: Streetspace Invaders
1/n

Enabling motorists without access to off-street parking to switch to EVs requires a vast rollout of public chargepoints - somewhere between 300-600k by 2030 - 10x as many as now - around a third of them on-street rather than at destinations or en-route

current rates of chargepoint installation are not keeping pace with the rate at which consumers are switching to EVs, generating mounting pressure on local authorities to accelerate installation rates on public highways

1/We hear a lot about how things have got more dangerous for pedestrians, children, elderly & disabled people since the temporary Lanark Road 'Travelling Safely' scheme was implemented, and that the scheme should be removed on that basis. hellosw20.wixsite.com/sw20ed/post/fo…

2/But does that argument hold up when scrutinised? Should we return Lanark Road to how it was pre-pandemic? What would the impacts on pedestrians, bus passengers, parents, elderly &, disabled people be?The new blog looks at the 7 existing crossing points on Lanark Road.
3/We want to make to make our streets, safer, slower, accessible and people friendly. #improveNOTremove #20mphstreets #CutTheClutter
Why aren’t we talking more about #FarmProtests ?

The farm laws which are scrapped are
1. Freedom to sell to anyone vs the previous restriction to sell at APMC (Agri Produce Marketing Company) - which was a monopoly
Allows to bypass intermediaries and sell direct to consumer or a wholesaler in a city.
Can still sell to APMC

2. Repeal of Essential commodities act - people can stockpile grains in warehouses.
Should lead to more investment by private sector - especially in perishable fruits and vegetables ( 🍎 🍌 🍉🥕🍆🍑) which reduces fluctuations in prices and hence predictable price for produce

In this video I show you how Op India used a 45 seconds clip from @ShekharGupta's Cut The Clutter Video and mischievously edited it to make a narrative that is not only false, but 180 degree opposite to what Mr Gupta said. I welcome @OpIndia_com to correct me if I am wrong.
The point where Mr. Gupta said "several prominent Bloomsbury authors and you'll see those name on screen..." there were screenshots of @DalrympleWill @harikunzru @AatishTaseer etc. In Op India's clip the screenshots are mischievously of @sanjeevsanyal @Sanjay_Dixit etc.
The entire Cut The Clutter video of Mr. Gupta was about blaming the liberal mob of bullying Bloomsbury into withdrawing the book. He completely blamed liberals. And Op India made headline that he is blaming right wing. Here is original video
