This is why we use @uber instead
Mark@viyvotvoyOct 26
Replying to @CharlieM_OBE
I’m a cabdriver in London and 3 times this morning passengers have asked me to take them to Selfridges and John Lewis. I say I can’t get them there, they say is it a demo, I say no it’s closed permanently. They decide to go Harrods instead. Business killer.

Horrified of HH@horrifiedofhh12h
A cab driver has been posting about telling passengers that he can’t take them to @JohnLewisRetail or @Selfridges because Oxford Street is closed. Total BS. If you encounter this nonsense just use @Uber - they use accurate satnav - or preferably a tube or a bus.

yes, the times I’ve been to Oxford street with any of my children (two of which currently toddlers) I have always thought to myself: thank god for this huge main road next to this overcrowded pavement!

I no longer own a car in London and I will never own a car in London again so the revenue the government is missing out on. There is only one person to blame.Khan .

Be extra careful if you’re cycling in London today. The pedestrianisation of Oxford Street has led to localised flooding due to the tears of black cab drivers.

Brexiters are not just rude but also thin skinned. They have to be to bolster their denial of reality.

Think of your licence@ThinkLicenceOct 22
This pedestrian was wearing high-visibility clothing, but that did not stop these β€˜professional’ drivers misbehaving. Not worthy of police reports, but I have always found the taxi licensing authorities receptive. ps β€˜waiting’ is picked out in high-vis too, also hard to miss.

John Stewart drops all pretence of being anything other than a hater of cycling. Claims of safety concerns were always an obvious nonsense trying to obscure his true motives.

The 'but cars' brigade will hate this in today's Times by the award-winning Janice Turner. She equates the clampdown on playing music loudly on public transport with cyclists running red lights. She is right. It's not just the danger but the entitlement that so annoys people.

If only someone had warned the Conservatives that this might happen! And the weird thing is that they’re now doubling down by: - telling us nothing can be done about it AND - giving us Brexit 2.0 by leaving the ECHR The Tories say they’ve changed, but they’ve learned nothing.

Munich @MUC airport right now. This is the queue to *leave* the country - ridiculous! Despite Germany’s promise in the Kensington Treaty for eGate access for Brits from August 2025. It was easier to get into the GDR!

The reason we can’t go through the faster border route is because of the Brexit that is as negotiated when you were an MP - not me. And as a kicker, you were a minister too. Maybe you should have done a better job.
Sir Greg Hands@GregHandsOct 18
It’s actually in the bilateral πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ Kensington Treaty, which was signed by the U.K. when you were an MP - not me. Maybe the LibDems should do their job of scrutinising the government a little more diligently?

Politicians voted in by everyone. For many decades. This is why the NHS has never worked and can never work.
D Laws πŸ’™@d_magpieOct 18
Replying to @JerryTaylor @myfoodbags @NJM71
You conflate the performance of the NHS (due to years of underinvestment) with the healthcare that the NHS would provide if it had appropriate investment France Β£1Trillion more & Germany Β£2.3T more over last 2 decades. Plus social care cuts NHS has been failed by politicians

In 1983, the @LabourParty led by Michael Foot suffered a crushing defeat in the general election with 28% of the vote. Today @ElectCalculus suggests that Labour is on 28% of the vote and set to win a majority of 56 seats! Can @andyburnham really go the country on a system allowing a party with 28% of the vote to win a majority?
Electoral Calculus@ElectCalculusOct 16
Our latest MRP poll with @PLMRLtd predicts that if there were a general election now, #Labour would win 353 seats, a majority of 56. #Conservatives would be the official opposition on 90 seats and #Reform would be third on 81 seats. Full figures ‡️ electoralcalculus.co.uk/blog…
