Welcome to Minitrue 5.0, which was also Minitrue 1.0. Trust your initial instincts – that’s what I always say.
Boris Johnson, Conservative candidate for the Mayoralty of London:
If we are going to expand cycling in London… we cyclists have got to obey the laws of the road.
Today’s Daily Mirror:
We’ve long known he hasn’t a clue which way to take his party, but it seems David Cameron can’t even point his bike in the right direction…
The Tory boss was spotted flouting the law by cycling the wrong way in a one-way street, through red lights and the wrong side of a bollard on his 30-minute trip to work.
Hapless Cameron was breaking the rules within minutes of leaving his Notting Hill home in West London for Westminster.
He sailed past a large red no entry sign even Mr Magoo would have noticed. Another clue was the huge arrows on the road pointing which way traffic should go.
Next to be ignored was a keep left beacon in the Mall. He veered off to the right…no change there then. Cam also hurtled over a toucan crossing, for cyclists and pedestrians, while the signal was red.
Outside the Commons, the 41-year-old spotted he was late, so to speed things up he went past a red light.
Whoopsie.
Oh, and if anybody says that the formatting of the site doesn’t work on their browsers, they can kiss my black ass: the site renders perfectly on Opera, the only browser that actually seems to understand CSS coding.
Works fine on both iexplore and Firefox, looks great (better even than the original black and fuscia). Welcome back Minitrue (and capital letters in headings).
But, but, but, but….”Is this the world we created” seems to have disappeared from the tag cloud. Ah you see – like legendary Norton Rose shipping finance fucktwat Jeremy Gibb, I can always find a fault, however small.
“Is This The World We Created?” has been retired.
The tag was too long for the tag cloud and it bled into the main column.
I tried to rename the tag to something shorter that wouldn’t bleed into the main column.
But I – ahem – pressed delete instead of rename and couldn’t reverse it without individually re-tagging all of the 150 posts that had that tag.
So I retired it and combined those posts with Chancer’s Paradise. In fairness, only 12 of those posts had one of those tags without the other so they’ve always been very closely related.
This is proof positive that, if you wear a T-shirt for long enough, it comes back into vogue.
Mine, incidentally, was worn during the birth of my relatively new son. He appears not to have been adversely affected, but it’s early days.
