The climate scam cartel has been delivered a kick in the - you -know - whats in the last 24hrs. See my post this morning on the SUV thread.

Maggie, I think it is pretty clear that you are anti cycling.You've criticised parents for allowing their children to cycle to school and around Chiswick.I realise you are, tenuously, saying that you're not anti-cycling, just anti-cyclist....but it is very difficult to be pro cycling when you have such rabid hate for people who cycle!Yesterday on Twitter you commented on a post of a cyclist almost being run over by calling him a "nasty selfish cyclist", then telling him to "deal with it" before helpfully posting a link to a Facebook group called:"BAN CYCLISTS ON THE ROAD".You are about as pro cycling as Putin is pro peace!

I’m not anti cycling and I’m a truly fulfilled pensioner with four wonderful granddaughters, who all cycle. ❤️

I now use anti-cycling pensioners as a daily reminder to ensure that I do everything I can while I am working to have a fulfilling retirement.

The Northern Line had the highest levels of respirable dust on average, which means it can penetrate down to the deep lung

Being inside you car with windows closed and vents closed in heavy traffic does indeed offer protection from pollution - more so than cyclists or pedestrians are protected because they have zero protection. They breathe polluted air directly from exhausts.

If the cars cabin filter is replaced regularly the air should be clean.

The ASA said: "car users were exposed to air pollution when inside their vehicle and that it could be higher than when using other forms of transport".Steve's contention that the ASA has concluded the inside of a car protects the occupants from air pollution is clearly wrong.

One would be forgiven for assuming the Antithesis to be correct in certain cases especially when it is bleeding obvious and has not been disproved.

Steve Taylor ● 463d

A logical error. The failure to confirm the hypothesis doesn't mean that the antithesis is correct.

“ For those reasons we concluded that the claim “According to research, one of the most polluted places in London is inside your car” had not been adequately substantiated and was likely to materially mislead.”So it’s concluded that inside your car you are more protected  from pollution than you would be if cycling or walking. I would have thought that’s pretty obvious though when considering commuting in London.

I suppose you could argue that the opening of the Elizabeth Line makes Khan's tenure of London Underground a success.However, Ken Livingstone and the last Labour government should get a big share of the credit.  I hope Khan's initiative to reduce fares on a Friday helps get more people into town - the Underground is pretty empty during the day on Friday.  But it isn't on the same scale as Ken's Fares Fair campaign, which, if you recall, got nixed by the Tories.  I'd argue that Khan's introduction and expansion of ULEZ - the world's largest low pollution zone - will be judged his greatest legacy and on a par with the Clean Water acts of the 19th Century.These helped establish a "right" to clean drinking water and I would hope that ULEZ, amongst other measures, helps establish the same rights to clean, non-polluted air.

Ed Saper ● 463d

Well done Ed. I suppose the underground is the Mayor’s greatest success story too

It is usually better not to trust information from Maggie or Facebook - here's the ASA ruling:https://www.asa.org.uk/rulings/greater-london-authority-g23-1202588-greater-london-authority.htmlFor those of you with TLDR syndrome, you only need to read this summary statement:The evidence provided had established that proximity to the source of pollution increased exposure, car users were exposed to air pollution when inside their vehicle and that it could be higher than when using other forms of transport, and that London’s air was polluted. However, a direct comparison between the level of air pollution within a car in London to a variety of other locations and contexts around London had not been made. For those reasons we concluded that the claim “According to research, one of the most polluted places in London is inside your car” had not been adequately substantiated and was likely to materially mislead.

Is the da back in fashion?
