It's amazing how so many people, car makers and planners, value convenience over life

We are flesh and blood.

Metal that weighs in the 1000kilos and can accelerate rapidly kills and seriously injures

Cities and cars arent compatible

We need to end the love affair between them

We've heard that many people are afraid of a range of animals. So, what if we add automobiles to the picture?

What should you target to effectively increase the safety for you and your loved ones?

'Local plans should not set energy efficiency targets that are stricter than building regulations'

A week in the Sun doesn’t make you a frequent flyer… but you know that and are simply inflaming against a proposal that would be a tax on the wealthy and Biz trips… which I welcome. why is that Lee?

A city lamp post gets crushed by a lorry. It's replaced straight away

A city tree gets destroyed by a lorry, it's gone forever, not replaced

Such is the place of nature in cities. Disposable temporary window dressing.

While this kind of Citu is amazing, the amazing thing is that it's still so niche and quirky

The mainstream housing industry could do this tomorrow. They have been allowed to drag their heels by complicit politicians and planners

Wherever you go, there is evidence of the sheer destructive power of car culture

A huge disconnect between the raw deadly power of motorised metal and the vulnerability of human bodies

We need to reclaim our communities from the car
