What do we want? A reasonable
What do we want? A reasonable, informed, and nuanced discussion in a spirit of co-operation. When do we want it? When’s good for you?

Sure – I’ve been through both
Sure – I’ve been through both those junctions many times, and neither is pleasant. It’s just the automatic assumption that ‘more road’ must be the answer, instead of, say, lower speeds, or other types of re-engineering.
The Beedon one is actually pretty long already – it’s just that it’s below the level of the A34, with a bunch of shrubbery in the way, which rather hinders the view of approaching traffic.
Although swearing in public
Although swearing in public isn’t an offence per se. It’s only if it satisfies certain other criteria that it becomes an offence. So it’s not just dubious whether the public interest criteria is satisfied – it’s dubious whether an offence has been committed at all.
The fact that they’ve trawled
The fact that they’ve trawled through all your submissions in that way (instead of focussing on the actual event in question) seems to be more evidence of this being a vexatious prosecution that’s more aimed at making you shut up and go away than it does of anything else.

It also conflates spending on ‘LTNs and quickways cycle routes’ with spending just on LTNs, and fails to mention that £3.8m is a piddling amount in the context of four years worth of budget that runs into £bns.

To which the answer is, er, the clue is in the name…

I doubt that the ‘obvious danger’ they’re thinking of is falling off.
This is the ‘road’ in question – clearly it’s ridiculous to expect a busy thoroughfare like this to be safe for kids to ride their bikes on.
I think you’ll find it is spending on biscuits.We should cut all spending on “healthy” vegan low-fat low sugar buscuits! There’s no such thing as an obesity crisis – it’s fake news, designed to allow the rich tea set to make more gold bars and take taxis to hobnob at conferences. We need a time out – we should be taking control of our Borders! We’ve reached peek Frean!
Nice!
Surely someone should decide what colour a cycle lane should be and stick to it.The Dutch are way ahead of you.
