Calls for City of London councillor to quit committee over 'deeply troubling' Lime bike role mylondon.news/news/zone-1-ne…
Sorry to hear it's PETA behind this.
I guessed it might have been Shrinking Pizza in a rearguard action against Big Chicken & who are eating their lunch - dinner & breakfast.
Shame reactions from passers-by missing. Maybe 'reminds me, I want some wings.'

Shabana Mahmood announcement on Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) to extend wait, generally, to 10 yrs & add more restrictions is wrong
Anyone should be able to live with their spouse in UK, not preference given to high earners (over £50K!) Treat shop workers & surveyors the same
Moving goalposts on Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR)? More taking them down
Wait time for ILR for spouse:
1985: 1 yr / 2003 - 2012: 2 yrs / 2012 - now: 5 yrs / Future: ??
Min income from 2024: £29K p.a. Who's the govt to stop you living with spouse as you don't earn enough?
When someone got emigration boat from grinding poverty in Italy to Buenos Aires in 1908, rather than to New York, it made sense. Argentinian GDP per head could well shortly overtake the USA.

The Footbridge - L S Lowry (1938).
Claimed to be Collyhurst, Manchester.
“I can’t think what you want to go to London for, you won’t find any better lamp posts there…” L S Lowry used to tell young artists who asked his career advice.
Maybe, but the hills and chimneys.

Altar is a new music +more venue in Leytonstone. We will see.
Before on the same site was the renowned Luna Lounge (image). A tough act to follow.
Bundesliga ad with Harry Kane in Ilford today. Trying to promote themselves as alternative (or complementary) to Premier League? A tough hill to climb. Maybe they could also focus on having lot less dodgy club owners.
