The number of people killed or seriously injured on London borough roads reduced by 34% following the implementation of 20mph speed limits, with the number of children killed falling by 75%

Dear Britain, it’s now clear: 20mph zones save lives and don’t slow traffic. Implement them | Sadiq Khan
There is too much bluff and bluster on this subject. Ordinary people just want safe streets for themselves and those they love, and we can achieve that, says London mayor Sadiq Khan

Surely this is just attempted highway robbery, first the minerals and now the nuclear? Targeting vulnerable countries. Disgusting.

Many Argos customers will be shocked that they've been advertising on this GB News YouTube video likening part of the LGBTQIA+ community to a "parasite": www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tehb...

Language matters. Words matter. Every single word matters.
Journalists, please do not describe what happened at the White House today as a "spat", "heated exchange" or as Zelensky-Trump "going at each other". Zelensky was ambushed by Vance while very calmly explaining why Ukraine needs security guarantees and doesn't trust a ceasefire...

Wow. I've just watched the footage. That was absolutely disgusting. And unstatesmanlike. Revolting behaviour from Vance and Trump. Zelensky behaved like a statesman and an adult and kept his temper. I admire him enormously. Slava Ukraini!

Today I commented on an M&S Facebook post to ask them to stop advertising on GB News. And I'm getting a lot of unpleasant responses. Tells me everything I need to know. I used to try and reason with people. Now I delete, block, and move on. #StopFundingHate

I am a European through and through. I was in Monnet house at school, I studied European Studies at GCSE, and the IB. I studied French, Russian, and European Studies at degree level. This time of threat to the European project is a very sad and worrying time for me. #EverCloserUnion
