There's little data for London and little recent data. However, the headlines are that cycles are a tiny minority of pedestrian injuries across the UK.
305 people were killed on the pavement in the 8 years between 2012 and 2020. Of those, 2 were by cyclists; car drivers were responsible for over 99.46% of pedestrian deaths on pavements.
Over the same period, 32 pedestrians died by vehicles jumping red lights. 1 was caused by a cyclist. 385 serious pedestrian casualties were a result of red light jumping - 17 (4%) were cyclists.
By comparison, 3 people a year die on average from cattle related injuries - cows ARE more dangerous than cyclists.
My Mum didn't speak to me for a while after I highlighted I probably paid more tax than the owner of the paper she reads every day, the Daily Mail, because he has non-dom status.
The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function - F. Scott Fitzgerald.
It says a lot more about who we are now that 2 Prem teams want to play us. They're setting up their squads for next season too and the fact we play a certain way makes us a more attractive team for them to practice against.
My uncle and cousin have just signed up for STs. They had them 20 years ago when we went up from L1 but the Flavio era priced them out - as it did many. They've done odd games here and there but Leeds home convinced them it was worth re-signing up again.
You could have stopped after 'at all'. I'm not in the media and trust me, it's not right to hold Jews collectively responsible for actions of the state of Israel.
I try and find an evidence base where I can make decisions from; that means watching, listening, and reading things which are written by every tribe.
Labour Together have been accused of being Centrist dilletantes and an extension of Starmer. Al Jazeera, the publishers of The Labour Files have been accused of not giving insight, but to purely further their profile and the attitude to Israel of its owner, the Qatari state.
We have to acknowledge the editorial narrative in all the media we read, see and hear and base our own opinions on that which we consume.
Ultimately, I accept I can't change anyone's mind and wouldn't want to on issue of political choice.
I respect that completely and I wouldn't tell anyone to vote for any party - it's an individual choice based on that person's lived experience and context. I experienced antisemitism as a member of the Labour Party under Corbyn's watch and resigned from the party. I didn't vote for Labour in 2019 as a result.
