Wow. The price of unleaded rose by 3 pence per litre at a Shell garage in just the time it took me to drive 4 miles and back. One garage sold out with cones blocking the entrance and forecourt lights out with diesel now at 1.53 per litre

Also very wary of QR codes on any street furniture given the ease at which malicious URLs can be used on fake stickers - a gift to fraudsters.
Yes. I have a good friend who became a naturalised US citizen warn me that this is the final solution that the American Christian right are planning for.
We are warned and ready.
Unfortunately, most people in the west aren't.
Glad that our pushbikes are all serviced - thank you friends ๐๐ป๐๐ฝ๐๐ฟ
I can see fuel rationing coming in soon potentially followed by food rationing.
AmericIsreal has seriously underestimated the severity of the fire they have lit ๐ฅ The blowback will engulf us all
The positioning of the sign at height too. No consideration at all for people in wheelchairs ๐ก
Wow. Good luck grandma ๐๐ป
A salutory reminder from Mark Seddon:
Just remember that it took 3.5 trillion dollars and 20 years to replace the Taliban with the Taliban. Let that sink in..

Absolutely gorgeous recipe by Dr Rupy Aujla which will be bookmarked. Instructions worked a treat and you can use fresh spinach leaf and wilt it down www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes...
Last year from January to June 471 people were killed or seriously injured on the roads in Birmingham, UK- and that was celebrated as an 18% reduction on the year before. Population is bigger than Brussels (9 deaths) but smaller than Berlin (55 deaths). We have so much further to go.
Happy Saint Davidโs Day to all who celebrate

An absolute insult to Ozzy Osbourne giving the witch Sharon air-time at the Brits. Controversial I know, but that was utterly cringe worthy.
The Brit Awards.
In Manchester.
This is a must watch.
Bleeping out swearwords ffs.
I support Iran and the Iranian people's right to self defense in Israel and America's war against them.
Trumpโs attacks Iran. Wants a puppet regime, as in Venezuela. A sistraction from Epstein files.
There will be years of chaos.
UN is emasculated.
Trump still wants to annex Gaza, Canada, Greenland, Panama, Colombia; and a Nobel Prize for Peace.
Only nuclear-armed states are safe from Trump.
Wow!
Change is possible.
Hope will triumph.
What a win for the green party.

Not wrong. Our daughter is 26 and desperate just to get out of our house and rent a flat. Basic stuff but not possible any more on the wages on offer.
And now it's looking like however hard they work, they'll be poorer than their parents while billionaires accumulate a greater % of all wealth.
There seems to be a trend across Reach publications across England highlighting the amount of fines being issued to drivers.
Seriously, if you're not reading the signs you deserve to pay the fines.
End of.
ULEZ fines are also spent locally ๐งก

Very good to see this (after a long day in budget plenary).
Looking forward to seeing the detail of mitigations for older and disabled people along with any bus or cycle re-routing.
