Ashford residents say
Ashford residents say constant roadworks are plaguing the town with gridlock and closures on Simone Weil Avenue, Newtown Road, A251 and more
“The work near the town centre means a journey normally taking me five or 10 minutes is now taking me 30 minutes.”

Wiltshire driver ate
Wiltshire driver ate breakfast with no hands on the wheel
“Stopped for having both hands off the wheel, apparently eating their breakfast has earned this driver a TOR for ‘not being in control’, as well as ‘ply exposed’ on closer inspection of the van,” said a spokesperson for Wiltshire Police.

By itself? I’m a meh on this
By itself? I’m a meh on this idea. If enacted on the back of one grieving father’s campaign, it just becomes a campaign box ticked for him and a wider box ticked for the government for road safety. By implication, it hands a free pass to “experienced” drivers.
For real, Cycloid? “a collision between a car driver and a cyclist”?? Bothsides much?
Thoughts and prayers to the poor traumatised driver. It’s a no on being some kind of crash dummy for inexperienced drivers – if that comment was ironic, I’m afraid you lost me.

Thanks for the long view on this – I hope we can get through to the other side if there is a Trump victory.

Catastrophising again, you end up with a mosaic of speed limits then then “it will confuse drivers” (when doesn’t it?)

Yeah sorry about the thread
Yeah sorry about the thread drift – how about “welcome to…the world’s lurch towards fascism”?
Farage is exactly like drivers and could have a 312 majority, but he’d still be the underdog, fighting for the common man against, er – sorry, I got nothing.
The next thing is the tories will bring in someone like Iain Duncan-Smith as some kind of interim leader – oh sorry, what was that?
Ps DAK if Farage has tweeted a recent picture of him and Trump?

Because Trump is a reflective leader who values challenge from those around him?

One commentator says it’s
One commentator says it’s what’s passes for humour at the moment. We’ve got a few months to “kiss and make up with Europe, at least be allowed to sleep in the spare room, catastrophising as I am that they will win.
About 20 years ago, I was lucky enough to go on a work trip to Stormont to meet the civil servants who work there. It’s no panacea, but these are the guys that sit down with fanatical (and often deluded) people and somehow, with the patience of many saints, manage to leave all the rhetoric and positioning at the door and pin down “what is important to you, out of what is possible to do, what do you want to get done?”

I see we have a running mate
I see we have a running mate now – brilliant. It must have been like this in Europe in the 1930s, watching a country risk descending into this madness and seemingly nothing to put the brakes on.
I’ve lost track of what Trump stands for now, like what he wants to be different in the world if he (God spare us) wins in a few months’ time.
