#Hillingdon
The Mayor of #London has hailed the success of the #ULEZ scrappage scheme, which removed or upgraded over 53,000 older, more polluting vehicles – 35,094 cars and 17,964 vans – cutting emissions and improving air quality. Outer London saw 88% of funding, with #Croydon and #Hillingdon leading on applications. The scheme promoted sustainable travel, with more walking and bus use reported. Over 680 vehicles were donated for humanitarian aid in #Ukraine. Emissions savings include 160 tonnes NOx, 8.5 tonnes PM2.5, and 33,400 tonnes CO2 – equal to powering 1,000 homes for a year. ULEZ compliance now exceeds 97%, up from 39% in 2017. London’s air quality is improving faster than elsewhere in England, with the most deprived communities seeing the greatest benefits. The £210m scheme remains the largest of its kind in the UK.

I've been a little distracted with broad-spectrum DIY, but the British Human Power Club racing season kicks off at #Hillingdon on Saturday. Registrations close at midday tomorrow.
Our events are open to anyone over the age of 12, on anything that's human-powered and meets a minimal set of safety requirements.

What a horrifying story, and it doesn't bode well for the general safety of those rides.

Another successful day of #BHPC racing at #Hillingdon. We actually ran to time, which is almost unheard of.
The suicide-rabbit that tried to take me out on the bottom corner is disqualified for poor race etiquette, and disqualified again for not being human-powered.
Tomorrow's side-quest from WC2024 organising is processing registrations for the #BHPC races at #Redbridge and #Hillingdon this weekend. Registrations close tomorrow morning, so there's still time to get an entry in...

My Campaign Leaflet
As you probably know by now, my campaign is not a particularly well-funded one. We don't have the backing of wealthy donors with extremely deep pockets, nor are we gifted large amounts of cash by trade unions. So we have to be very frugal with the money we spend on campaigns. To that end, I designed my own campaign leaflet and had p

1/5 London Autumn
I've missed the best of #autumn as I was away, but have tried to catch the tail end in the last two weeks. Here's a shot from the #Hillingdon Trail near #Harefield. Mud, woods and golden leaves.

Hillingdon MPs Vote Against Child Safety
Yesterday saw an opportunity for MPs to do the right thing. Somewhat predictably, both of our Conservative MPs, David Simmonds and Steve Tuckwell, voted against the opposition day "Safety of School Buildings" bill, along with most of the rest of the Conservative MPs in Parliament. This was a sad day for Hillingdon, with both o
