Mayoral elections coming up... a few candidates saying they're taking out LTNs, Khan saying if he wins he'll up the game...I'm not going to be voting for him BTW.

Paul James ● 1543d

We’ll see.But the true minority is the LCC.

Simon Hayes ● 1544d

A majority of a sample size. But we can get into semantics about that. Clearly, the best measure of opinion will be next year's elections. If Lab runs on a ticket of maintaining or increasing LTNs and it wins, then it has the mandate.

Kevin Wilson ● 1544d

Reflecting majority opinion, clearly.

Simon Hayes ● 1544d

What is One Ealing if not a 'vocal minority' pressure group?

Kevin Wilson ● 1544d

You know you really want the LTNs taken out, don’t you?

Simon Hayes ● 1545d

He doesn't even appear to understand what it means!

Paul James ● 1545d

Have you actually started calling me Paula? I thought it was a typo initially...

Paul James ● 1545d

Interesting that The Telegraph which ran this story (surprising it doesn't appear to be in the Harrow Times) used a picture of the very vocal Ealing anti-LTNers.

Not whole Bell is in charge. All policy comes from him. Dissent is not tolerated.

"A vocal minority pressure group should not have an overarching impact on the majority of other road users."We have a surfeit of Vocal Minority Pressure Groups exercising overarching impacts on The Majority in almost all facets of our lives these days.When is the nonsense going to stop, when will The Common Sense Backlash begin?

Well said, Nigel. Although might not be clear and concise enough for our resident troll.

Simon Hayes ● 1546d

Absolutely Mr B. Or try & bully shopkeepers & staff to remove anti LTN literature.According to cycling mafia it does not affect their businesses!!!!!

Peter Yale ● 1546d

Paul, this is called an answer to a question, try it sometime. I don't actually want to see a single LTN in place unless the community it affects has been consulted and has voted positively for it's implementation. A vocal minority pressure group should not have an overarching impact on the majority of other road users.

N V Brooks ● 1546d

Not at all. But when a question is asked in a way so as to cast doubt on what someone says and undermine their argument then that’s psychological manipulation. Paula does it all the time.

Simon Hayes ● 1546d

Simon :  You are obsessed with gaslighting.

Philippa Bond ● 1546d

Perhaps you should rephrase your questions then Paula. They all come across as gaslighting.And you rarely answer anything put to you.

Simon Hayes ● 1546d

Disband them all ASAP

Peter Yale ● 1546d

Asking a question! :D

Paul James ● 1546d

BellEnd will never dismantle LTNs unless he's legally forced to.And even then he will fight tooth and nail, wasting OUR money.He's on a Zealous Political Mission, it's patently obvious, and clear as a ..... Bell.    VOTE LOCAL LABOUR, and DESTROY YOUR COMMUNITY!

Rosco White ● 1546d

Gaslighting again!

Simon Hayes ● 1546d

Not even you want them all removed though do you Nigel?

Paul James ● 1546d

Watch it, Priti Patel might class this protest as a 'public annoyance'.

Kevin Wilson ● 1547d

Every chance and there is a socially distanced protest march next Saturday from Blondin Park to the Town Hall.

N V Brooks ● 1547d

NO CHANCE!
