She recalled a time when she was in New Road, Brighton, when a Mini in flames careered down the street before crashing and burning out.
Councillor Shanks said: “A Mini rally seems to me ridiculous.

Ooh imagine that, another priveleged individual, telling us lesser mortals what we should be doing.
What next, Charles Windsor and his muckers telling us 'You'll own nothing and be happy' ........ oh wait a minute.

i suspect whoever runs the editorial policy (..if they have one..) for brightonandhovenews.org is no fan of the councillor shanks and/or the green party otherwise they might have led with the fact that the committee gave consent for the full programme of events in 2021
edit: fixed my grammar

The comments are interesting, can't help wondering how similar they'd be to those of 1899 when the first L2B brought change to their pebbles.
Were any electric vehicles involved I wonder?

My Mini is carbon neutral, I purchase all my fuel on my Shell Go card and Shell undertake to purchase carbon credits to offset or compensate for the Mini's emissions.
The problem with electric cars is you don't know how the electricity you use to charge your car is generated ?

Sadly covid 19 has been used as a reason to stop many traditional celebrations and ways of life that were taken for granted. Cycle lanes in large towns and cities introduced without consultation. Restrictions on our freedom and mobility without proper parliamentary scrutiny, mass changes to health care, family life, all introduced to ‘protect us and keep us safe’. Sadly the internal combustion motor car is also now bad for us and must be removed from the road.
Yet another example here of demonising our old way of life, so sad, for the first time in my 47 years on this earth I really am not looking forward to the future and think we’ve had the best of life before covid. Our lives are being changed at a pace and speed never seen before and it’s grim.
Could not agree more. We are existing not living. So glad I am north of 50.

You're right, Maderia Drive is a disgrace. I live near Brighton and work in Hove. A once grand city is crumbling away. Might ask for a refund on my 2020 L2B ticket as I am not sure I want to go to a place where I'm not welcome.
