Hannah Fearn It's like the entire concept of making a railway station accessible and not disorientating was ignored in favour of advertising revenue.

Hannah Fearn What is particularly impressive is how they took an absolutely awful, soulless, impractical, infuriating space, spent a load of money on it, and made it even worse.

Hannah Fearn How far we have fallen.

'One entered the city like a god. One scuttles in now like a rat.'

- VINCENT SCULLY, 2012, when discussing the demolition of NYC's Penn Station in 1963, just months after the demolition of old Euston, below.

Hannah Fearn Every recent change has made it worse, such as having to troop outside in the rain to get to the tube and getting rid of the old departure boards. And they still don’t open the train doors until it is just about to leave London Euston

Hannah Fearn Enshittification, everywhere.

Hannah Fearn Instinctively the park in front of woolwich tescos. But cold reflection i would go for the wonderfully named ring road square in bermondsay. A park surrounded on all sides by 4 lanes of A2 and also on one side the A

David Gridley What gets me about Euston is that it does not feel like a railway station at all. You might be in some purposeless indoor public space anywhere. It would help if you could see the trains.

I’ll tell you what ticks me off about these new screens at Euston station. The big screen is used for advertising and the smaller screens are the train describers – it should be the other way around. (End of rant) 😡

Euston. London’s worst public space. It’s like living inside a gaming console.

This is really concerning. Allotments are great but not when they involve bulldozing meadows where declining skylarks are nesting. What are you doing Roots Allotments ?

It's only a '£75 billion increase' over 6 years if you assume that spending would otherwise have been frozen in cash terms for 6 years - i.e. only if the government was, until today, planning to breach its NATO commitments. This is such an unhelpful way to present the figures.

Well founded environmental concerns about the planned Leigh Woods Allotments, ON A MEADOW, has led to
Roots fans losing their confidence in Roots. Roots Allotments are trying to escape criticism by changing the site name to “Leigh Woods Meadows” !! Ironic, but also the same site!

This is some of what is in a lorry load of soil delivered to roots leigh woods meadow. Roots thinks that this ok to grow your veggies in.

In August Abbots Leigh+Leigh Woods’ residents funded a legal challenge culminating in North Somerset Council refusing Roots Allotments’ application for Certificate of Lawful Development for “allotments on agricultural land with ancillary car parking for 80 cars”….

Roots Allotments -aversions to planning applications + full environmental assessment has resulted in wildlife death & suffering already, and a load of harmful plastic waste dumped on the meadow. More damage due when they remove this commercial compost Soil Association Avon Wildlife Trust
