Sunak in an ivory tower, in this instance in a motorcade with the usual security cars, plus police cars, plus about 50 cops on pushbikes, and another 50 jogging along with them. Guess that's one MP who's safe. Arse.

Thanks BRR.  He must think he's a US President instead of a U.S Prime Minister.

I wonder whether some kind of threat had been made, that we don’t know about of course.

I'm lost for words how those Bobby's are expected to do their jobs effectively on push bikes instead of motorcycles.
Just to appease environmentalists.

Something to do with a large group of anti establishment activists using large numbers of push bikes to get around the city and cause mayhem

I see the Tory Apologists have turned up.  I suppose they feel that anything that happened in the past, however stupid or wasteful of resource, should be ignored because, well, it happened in the past!
 
No wonder this country is screwed!

Always important to reflect on the past, with gold rimmed glasses perhaps? (hint)
Like what is considered to be the single biggest financial blunder ever made by a Govt of this country. Any guesses?
And we are still living with the consequences of it today. And every day. And we will be for some time yet. If not forever.

But that will be forgiven NR because it happened in the past.

  They are on bikes because they are the only ones who use the million pounds worth of bike lanes when its raining the labour party Lord mayor of London has spent on them.

Then theres labours deficit policy, something in the past to be forgotten:

How can you reconcile sending the whole of the Shadow Cabinet on a TUC march against austerity, and then signing up to Conservative spending plans 18 months later?

Maybe it was right to promise cuts and no increase in Government spending. Maybe it was right to go on the march and oppose austerity. But you can’t have your fiscal cake and eat it. Labour managed to convince deficit hawks that it was in favour of ballooning public spending. And it simultaneously managed to convince opponents of austerity that it was in favour of greater cuts.

But not what is happening now. Unless you want to get sidetracked into a discussion about time and space?
