- Reposted by Chris WardmanAnne Hidalgo's positive impact on Parisian public space has been huge. But the ultimate significance of her leadership on mobility justice is global: demonstrating what is possible really highlights the commitment of other mayors to convenience for car owners at the expense of everyone else.
- “The transformation is astonishing. [Paris] has quietly—& quickly—become one of the most bike-friendly cities in the world. What started as a series of emergency ‘coronapistes’ or pop-up bike lanes, built during the pandemic has evolved into a permanent bike network spanning hundreds of kilometres.”

- Reposted by Chris WardmanThis "conflicting accounts" narrative of the BBC's is a much bigger problem than they seem to think. The huge issue is not false balance - it's that they're NOT reporting the biggest story of today: the fact the US Government is lying about its own forces killing a US citizen.

- Reposted by Chris WardmanWhen they lie this obviously & shamelessly about their murder victim, a neighbour who was helping his neighbours and was attacked for it, when there’s video EVERYWHERE showing the ridiculousness of their lie, then you know for sure that they’re lying about literally EVERYTHING they say. Everything.
- Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"
