    every town and city, half the roads become cycle paths, and the other half have cycles excluded.

    My motivation guesstimate: 70% publicity generation / 25% grumpy old man shouting at bikes / 5% genuine trolling. Also predictably stated – dog-whistle stuff along the lines of “millions of turks poised to invade the UK” (1, 2, 3). Still – it’s clearly what lots of people are prepared to hear…
