Wow. That's bad.
I hope we don't have anything like this, do we...?

Oh, it turns out we do.
Barriers *&* bollards to obstruct even the most determined.
On #NCN5, no less...

And another obstruction on #NCN5. Image

If you think the UK has a 'free press', think again.
Just 3 companies (News UK, Daily Mail Group & Reach) dominate 83% of the UK newspaper market.
Including online readers, just 5 companies (News UK, Daily Mail Group, Reach, Guardian & Telegraph) dominate nearly 80%...
A pliant government has allowed wealthy individuals & organisations to amass vast political & economic power & distort the media landscape to suit their interests. Six billionaires own &/or have a majority of voting shares in most of our national newspapers...
True editorial independence doesn’t exist in these papers. The owners can – & do – interfere with what is published, which editors & journalists are promoted or fired & also exert undue influence as to which political parties the paper supports..

This exemplifies everything that's wrong with the licensing system. A persistent offender who is demonstrably incapable of operating dangerous machinery in public spaces is allowed to drive again, with the 'exceptional hardship' excuse.
standard.co.uk/news/uk/shane-…
#ShaneWarne & other persistent offenders should undergo psychological screening as well as a retest before he's ever allowed behind the wheel. A cycling proficiency test on roads should also be an essential part of the driving test.
Automated speed limiting tech would curb Warne's worst excesses & ensure he can never break speed limits again.
This is what the '#RoadSafety' lobby needs to address, otherwise the lives of innocent victims are worth no more than thoughts & prayers.

I complained to @thesundaytimes about @Real_RodLiddle's article on using piano wire to harm cyclists & got this reponse.
They're claiming it's all a 'joke'
I'm absolutely appalled.
1/5 Image
I'm not aware Liddle was passing himself off as a comedian these days, but if he is he needs to think about his new career direction because advocating violence against others is far from a laughing matter.
Hi article is as funny as cancer...
2/5
The ST's reply is a shocking attempt to defend the indefensible & the illegal.
It's attempting to justify inflammatory 'journalism' that incites criminal behaviour.
Liddle, the Sunday Times and Stephen Bleach should all be ashamed of themselves...
3/5

Days after a terrorist kills 2 innocent people, MPs rush to change legal processes.
In the interim 20 innocent people die on UK roads: tumbleweed.
#UnacknowledgedEverydayMotoringTerrorism

The carnage never ends, while politicians look the other way.

Another hit & run.
The needs & safety of #VulnerableRoadUsers continue to be ignored as political parties obsess about immigrants.
The biggest danger we face is already here & behind the steering wheel...

How broken are borough council @RedditchMatters & local government policies, when most of the stories in the weekly paper @RedStand are about people trying to patch the massive holes in the social fabric...
Support Redditch #FoodBank this Christmas. Let's not demand & enable a more just and fairer society instead...

Redditch Lions raise funds for @ChildrenInNeed. If only all those tax dodging corporations like @BootsUK paid their tax perhaps children wouldn't be in need...
