A short read on why @WSHighways @WSCCNews and @egcouncil have priorities upside down when it comes to clearing ice and snow. Measureable benefits of clearing pavements first.

Hi #bbcfootball I loved the imaginative use of Ecuador by sash when profiling the Ecuador team yesterday. I've found a song that fits the brief for today game. You're welcome. youtu.be/iIpfWORQWhU
Thinking about that scene in @jessearmstrong1 's succession where they discuss who they're gonna make the next us president and wondering why the UK equivalent meeting settled on liz truss.

Hi @WSHighways why do your crew put these signs on the footway, reducing the useable width to less than the legal minimum?

#bbcfootball Liverpool fans commemorating the deaths of the 97 by bringing an incendiary device into the stadium and setting it off.
Big congrats to @WSCCNews and @WSHighways 🙄

This bollard on Kensington High St was adopted by Ellie, aged 5 who wants to be able to cycle to school in safety. She has to adopt a bollard because she hasn't the same access to power that the likes of Lord Rothermere has. #SaveTheLane
