Not a single person died on Helsinki’s roads in the last year.

An impressive achievement which shows cities across the world that road traffic deaths are not inevitable.

Wes Streeting took £224,575 in donations from people and companies linked to the private health sector between Jan 2023-2025. 🚨🚨🚨

I find that unconscionable. Share if you agree!
