Well said, @Chris_Boardman and @BritishCycling. Channel 5’s “scourge of our streets” film is just unhelpful.
Enough tribalism & clickbait demonisation. Cyclists also walk. Pedestrians also drive. Some drivers even (gasp) cycle.
Let’s just make our streets work for all, agreed?
Cyclists aren’t the ‘scourge of the streets’. They are mothers, fathers, grandparents and children all doing their bit to make Britain a healthier, greener and more liveable place.
Share this video from @Chris_Boardman to help us make our message loud and clear to @channel5_tv

Dear @claireperrymp
We've got less than 12 years to act in order to stop a climate catastrophe.
You've got the power to ban fracking and shift the government's focus to renewable technology that will help us cut carbon emissions.
Please do something!

Remember to take your water bottle with you to work today! 15 million plastic bottles are littered, landfilled or incinerated every day just in the UK and you can help to change this.

America's push for oil and gas supremacy could lead to a climate catastrophe.
To avert climate disaster, we need a #GreenNewDeal that phases out fossil fuels and offers a just transition to renewable energy.

This year world scientists warned us we have 12 years to sort this climate mess out.
This week, our government have:
1. Promised to expand airports ✈️✈️✈️
2. Penalised people getting their own solar panels ☀️act.gp/2rGeppm

Do you know a #charity or local organisation looking for #funding for #community or #conservation projects in #EppingForest or #WansteadPark? We might be able to help with a grant of £8,000 to £15,000.

Took my flask to the dentist so I didn't have to use a single-use #plastic cup for my rinse and spit. THEY LAUGHED AT ME. I realise dentists use a lot of single-use plastic but we have to start somewhere. If everyone took a flask to the dentist, etc... #DrowningInPlastic

There's a fossil fuel monster at @EalingCouncil because they're investing £61m in coal, oil and gas. @EalingLabour it's time to divest.

If our politicians are serious about tackling climate change, they shouldn’t be investing in it. Tell your MP here divestparliament.org
