"I am grateful for being invited to speak to the London Assembly Transport Committee on 14 December 2021 as part of its Investigation of the Mayor’s Vision Zero Programme."
"Further to my testimony, I believe the Transport Committee should consider making the following recommendations to ensure that the @MayorofLondon #VisionZeroLDN goals are incorporated into Bus Driving in London."

Will @VanessaOnAir ask @Heidi_LDN @TfL if she thinks "Concealing or denying failings, for the sake of the organisation's public image, is dishonesty on the part of the organisation for reputational benefit & constitutes a form of institutional corruption"?
Because if @BBCLondonNews @BBCTomEdwards bothered to investigate how often @TfL misleads Public & @LondonAssembly about its Poor Safety Performance—cf 1) #StopKillingBusDrivers 2) #CroydonCrash #CoverUp 3) #LondonBusWatch—would be obvious b/c evidence already in public domain.
QED 1. Why doesn't @BBCLondonNews look into @TfL Commissioner & @MayorofLondon "Misleading Statements about Middle Door Boarding & #Covid19 Risk Reduction"? @SadiqKhan admits decision had nothing to do w science. london.gov.uk/questions/2021… HT>@KeithPrinceAM

At noon today @LondonAssembly June 2021 Questions for @MayorofLondon are due. Let's take a look at some of the #CroydonCrash #CoverUp Questions @SadiqKhan hasn't answered for May 2021. @edthicknesse @BBCTomEdwards @Robbiehorgs @TaraOConnor_ @christianwolmar @InsideCroydon
1. from @KeithPrinceAM: "Contractually-Mandated Safety Reporting & Monitoring Requirements contained in current Operating Agreement between @FirstGroupplc TOL & @TfL" — Officers are drafting a response. It's a SIMPLE QUESTION @Heidi_LDN! london.gov.uk/questions/2021…
2. from @KeithPrince: "Operating Agreement between @FirstGroup TOL & @TfL in effect on 9 November 2016" — Officers are drafting a response. Another SIMPLE QUESTION @Heidi_LDN. Why the DELAY? london.gov.uk/questions/2021…

#StopKillingBusDrivers @MayorofLondon tells @KeithPrinceAM "from Mar20-May21, 90 @TfL Workers killed by #Covid19" BUT "TfL is unable to report on the number of Taxi or Private Hire drivers who have died in service" @TootlestheTaxi @GMBLondonRegion @BWTUC london.gov.uk/questions/2021…
TfL Data released w that MQT response that reveals OVER HALF (53%, 47 of 90) @TfL Worker Deaths from #Covid19 occurred AFTER May20, i.e. AFTER 1st Wave. Weren't any 'lessons learned' @SadiqKhan @Heidi_LDN @MichaelMarmot? HT>@KevinMustafa16 @therealdojj @MalLunam @LeeOdams
TfL Data released w same MQT response reveals OVER HALF (75%, 67 of 90) @TfL Worker Deaths from #Covid19 were "Bus & Dial-a-Ride" Workers. BUT TfL refused to correlate Death Timeline Data w/ Worker Occupation. Why? Why conflate Bus & Dial-a-Ride" Worker data? WHAT is TfL Hiding?
