So I’ve never written a story about myself. But I broke the rule to show how, despite warm words about change, police still fail women reporting sexually motivated crimes. Here’s my story of the 2 yr battle to get my offender convicted. TLDR: Don’t give up bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgw…
Interesting thread. Love the idea of streets going on a 'car diet' to make way for people and trees. Well done Paris.
I’m just back from the @Paris2024 #Olympics 🇫🇷

Right I have gone through the latest 20mph data for Wales and have made this video.
However, I know many of you prefer a thread so I've done that as well.
Long story short, 20mph seems to be working VERY well and is already paying for itself.

Thank you to everyone who came along to the event at her former family home in Roath, Cardiff.

What an unveiling it was for our 12th Purple Plaque! There was music, there was laughter and many stories remembering Patti Flynn's campaigning and musical career. Thank you to everyone who made it possible.
