No sign of the Gardai doing a baton charge?
No sign of IS with a truck either.
Buggered traffic RIGHT up.
I agreed with the protest but now that I’ve been inconvenienced I hate all cyclists.
Ps thanks for the earworm, Broadsheet.
Left right left we allllll falll dow-ow-ow-own
I still have Ronan’s, “When you say nothing at all” from a few years ago, I feel your pain.
“de schmile on ure faishe….”
Please, it’s a torture already, Bertie.
I’ll give you this, Bertie. However, if you play this, it’ll be in your mind for a day or two.

The answer is simple, losers. Put some lights and reflective clothes on
cyclists without lights is just nature thinning the herd
AND campaign for more investment in cycling infrastructure.
I don’t know Nigel. Aren’t blind homeless people with wanderer street dogs more deserving?
I can’t think of anything offhand that deserves your attention, except maybe intestinal parasites.
Parasites are a scourge alright as are especially their lamentable fellow travellers looking for handouts for them with everyone else’s money
As a vaguely human-shaped collection of intestinal parasites in a long coat you don’t have to worry about paying taxes, though.
Why a long coat? I’m actually wearing a miniskirt and push-up bra at the minute
But the deaths over the past few days happened during daylight.
What’s the answer to that one?
Because there isn’t always perfectly visibility. A lot of drivers have lights on always, regardless of conditions. Lights on and you are statistically, significantly less lightly to be in an accident.
“less lightly to be in an accident.”
haha, i see what you did there.
Agreed, visibility during daylight hours is not always perfect and that is why we must take extra care to look out for vulnerable road users.
The reality is that you can be lit up like a christmas tree while cycling but if the driver is not ‘looking’ for you it won’t make a blind bit of difference (excuse the pun).
Re-enacting Liverpool’s defending at set pieces presumably…
