About Spartacus

  1. Whilst you are giving good advice out to cyclists on safer cycling, please also remind them to have lights after dusk, wgetw pissible wrar bright or reflective itejs, and avoid the risk created by jumping red lights. Make your safety advice the full package as cyclists really are vulnerable and need to look out for themselves and not just tely on others doing the right thing.
  2. You can still get covid even after the jab, it just helps lessen the symptoms if you do. Might be worth testing so that you can contain it if it is 😀
  3. Barrys on Barry Road also selling them
  4. What would be great would be returning the 12 to a 5-6 minute frequency, as it was before reduction in service was imposed during covid
  5. Or is it just grilled bread
  6. Maybe they will be fitted with real loos so that the elderly can use buses more without the fear of getting caught short 🤔
  7. Where would you add the bus lanes? remembering its for the whole borough and not just ED
  8. Saw this today, which is brilliant news for Southwark https://southwarknews.co.uk/news/community/southwark-to-be-given-up-to-10-million-to-improve-buses/ I am amused that Lewisham are clear on what they are focusing on, but Southwark in the article aren't. Wonder where the money will be spent and what suggestions, if you had £10 million to improve buses, you would spend it on.
  9. Are the emergency water works where the lovely fresh tarmac is ? If so I hope Thames will redo the tarmac and not just patch the hole after
  10. Blimey Victor, sorry I meant Mal, that's taking your curtain twitching to new levels
  11. One thing that could help pedestrians and buses would be restricting M&S to rear loading and not blocking the bus lane or restricting sight lines for the crossing (zig zag lines.) This was one of two lorries unloading for M&S today
  12. Maybe Angelina did see them, however how many people and drivers didn't? Just takes one to cause life changing for both. Wouldn't it be more sensible if cyclists realised lights and reflective gear is not just to help them see but to potentially save their lives by making them visible to all.
  13. Are you referring to the use of barriers to widen the path during covid making it harder to get on and off public transport?
  14. Today we are seeing the impact of increased taxes (employers NI) with tje UK unemployment rate rising https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cdxrp7znkdlo Unfortunately, to increase tax burdens will see the economy stall or a recession, as Angelina says, cutting spending, whilst painful short term, is a good way to bring down government borrowing. True, we don't want to see cuts to services but there are other areas of government spending that can be reduced and with AI impacting all jobs across all businesses, maybe it will also reduce overall staffing costs.
