Because Rishi Sunak, the Prime Minister of UK describes 15-minute cities as an attack on Motorists and vows to abolish such things.
It’s amazing how some sociopaths destroy everything if some money is thrown their way.
This is in Oxford. Stop the buses and 15 minute city to help the traffic flow…
your concerns and evidence
I think he misspelt “my bigoted ideas and hatred for reason”
Oh is that where all the Kippers are now?
I’m new to the area, what’s a Kipper?
All the old UKIP boys who, having finally achieved their lifelong dream of decimating the British export economy, will have inevitably turned their attentions to other equally worthy and progressive causes, such as bringing back smoking in pubs.
Maybe the American propaganda pushers don’t make French language versions
For real. The amount of utter nonsense I see on Facebook about it being a Chinese conspiracy to prevent us going anywhere, when all it means is you should be able to, heaven forbid, walk to the shops.
Because Paris is its own jurisdiction.
Paris’ mayor, Anne Hidalgo, is incredibly unpopular in the rest of the Parisian Metropolitan Area (whose government is right-wing under Valérie Pécresse). Much of these areas are still car-dependent beyond belief with bad-to-awful public transit, meaning they are progressively getting cut-off from car-hostile Paris. Paris is completely unaffordable to live in, so it is normal for the working class to have a 1h+ commute into Paris.
This understandably breeds resentment from most people who have never heard of the term “induced demand” or think that the lack of rail transit it Hidalgo’s fault.
Right-wing nutjobs. The idea oozed out of russia, was picked up by the Brexit/Cambridge Analytica cabal/MAGA fascists/Qanon cultists and that’s where it comes from.

Conspiracy theorists and the reputation the UK government has for corruption.
Same in germany and add propaganda/corruption from the car industry.
The UK imports it’s republican talking points from the US. Rupert Murdoch being involved in both newspaper markets is probably a big reason
