2 wrongs don't make a right.
You'll be getting woppit off his sick bed with thread titles like that 😀
no but a hypocrite getting caught out is quite amusing.2 wrongs don't make a right.
ps which 2 wrongs are you talking about?
Well that's cheered me up!
It's Karma.
Wrong number 1. She hates cyclists and tries to stir up anti-cyclist feeling.
Wrong number 2. She jumps a red light and gets nicked.
Two wrongs certainly do appear to make a right in this case.
What the link doesn't mention is that Kate Hoey actually publicly backed a "Stop at Red" campaign aimed at cyclists, which makes it even more ironic.
Well, she supports fox hunting so she's not be all bad. 😀

Oooooh aaaaaaaaaaaaargh !!
Gerrofff moy laaand !!!
I get the irony, I just don't see what's wrong with encouraging cyclists to stop at red lights.
ar
this is the ex-minister for Sport
not our sport clearly - bloodsports?
Anonymouse, nothing wrong with "encouraging cyclists to stop at red lights" but penning some diatribe berating cyclists with
[i]How many times have you seen a cyclist deliberately riding in the middle of the road, preventing any car passing and then screaming abuse at the poor driver who dares to try?[/i]
and
[i]Lycra louts don't just break the law; they often do so in an aggressive and threatening manner.[/i]
when
[i]A Traffic Note ... in London found that 16 per cent ignored traffic signals – but 84 per cent obeyed them.[/i]*
is not on, it's attempting to demonise cyclists and is worthy of a bit of retributional karma IMO 🙂
*YMMV in other areas
Fair enough, if those quotes are from her she does sound to have been a bit vindictive.
[i]not our sport clearly - bloodsports[/i]
Commuting isn't a sport.
follows Samurai on commute and overtakes 😉
How many cyclists are fined for jumping red lights ?
When will the Government due something about the urban fox population which is rising totally unchecked ? It won't be long before a child is killed by an urban fox.
You can't be serious...?
It's just a matter of time before someone charging through red traffic lights on a horse chasing a fox kills a child.
And I'll blame Kate Hoey
