A minibus owner by the Dnipro Kids charity which is used to transport Ukrainian orphans has been stolen. The 17-seater Ford Transit van with blue and yellow stripes and the charity logo was parked in the Joppa area in the east of the city when it went missing. Dnipro Kids was started 20 years ago by a group of Hibs supporters following a trip to watch a match against Dnipro in Ukraine.

This proposal by the BBC is explicitly anti-democratic. As @natashadevon.bsky.social and others have pointed out, more women are moving to the Green party than are men going to Reform - yet the national broadcaster is falling over itself to pander to the extreme right. Why?
When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left?
All the shifts are in just one direction.

“The United States, with its enormous highways, sprawling suburbs and neglected public transport systems, is one of the most car-dependent countries in the world. But this arrangement of obligatory driving is making many Americans actively unhappy, new research has found.” Via @theguardian.com
How extreme car dependency is driving Americans to unhappiness
A car is often essential in the US but while owning a vehicle is better than not for life satisfaction, a study has found, having to drive too much sends happiness plummeting

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social raises an important question about the corruption of the justice system. Why was not one farmer arrested for blocking roads & bringing the whole country to a standstill? Climate protesters are in prison, farmers aren’t, why? What happened to equality under the law?

Unsurprisingly to folk who follow pedestrianisation:
A review of the data has shown that pedestrianisation of Shrewsbury Town Centre has increased footfall, increased the value of purchases made, and increased the profitability of businesses in pedestrian areas.
