- Comment on Opinion: Just ignore all the myths about low-traffic neighbourhoods. They’re popular, effective and here to stay 3 days ago:
Thanks. I’m never quite sure what to believe on these schemes, they sound good and have all the right aims but I can never be sure if the complaints against them are just locals that will moan no matter what, or if there’s genuine issues that the local authorities just try to suppress because they want to implement the scheme no matter what.
I dunno what your situation is, but would cycling that previous 7 minute journey be an option? I guess that’s what the scheme tries to promote but understand it’s not always practical.

- Comment on Thanks to the american FPTP voting system, Nigel Farage could obtain an absolute majority with a minority of the votes 5 days ago:
I’m definitely all for PR, but hasn’t FPTP hurt smaller parties like Reform/UKIP in the past? There was an election where UKIP received millions of votes but only secured a couple of seats. PR could potentially make it easier for parties like Reform to gain power.

Yeah but passenger airliners aren’t equipped with parachutes. I think what you probably mean is in an emergency evacuation then the passengers will be left behind while attendants jump down the slides.

- Comment on Kneecap apologises to families of Sir David Amess and Jo Cox 2 weeks ago:
They stated that “an extract of footage, deliberately taken out of all context, is now being exploited and weaponised, as if it were a call to action”.
So what do they claim was the context?

I wonder how they’d scale something like this up though if it’s a success?

- Comment on 'We can’t sit back and watch’: Former MI6 boss says Britain must get ready for war as Putin threatens Europe 1 month ago:
There was no promise of NATO expansion. Gorbachev himself had said there was no such promise.
Countries previously occupied by the soviets didn’t want a repeat and sought security guarantees by joining NATO, something that they’re entitled to do.
The people got rid of a president who was once looking for closer ties to the EU, then visits Putin and suddenly wanted to get cosier with Russia, doing a complete 180. Let’s also conveniently forget Russia poisoning of the pro-west presidential candidate in 2007. Was that the fault of the west too?
Your comment reeks of Russian propaganda.

They really do look very tacky.
I was stuck in Preston Hostpital car park a while ago as I had to wait for someone to try and squeeze their Range Rover into a parking spot that wasn’t designed for such a huge vehicle. It was equally hillarious and frustrating.

I wonder if AI companies basically disregard scraped data from 01/04 due to all the tomfoolery.

Why are our electric costs so high? We’re always hearing how cheap renewables are and how we’re using more renewables than ever, yet our bills keep going up? What gives?
