1639217925847666689 | 👀 Just 1% of £1.1bn lost from government’s Covid business support programme from fraud and error has been recovered - @peterwalker99 https://t.co/Kbxdu8Q29b | 882 |
1639334058176938003 | “I think he’s done”: Boris Johnson’s support nosedives after bruising week - by me and @peterwalker99 https://t.co/xuD6yW1IJY | 861 |
1639936706500521986 | I support road closures, but people are right to be sceptical of this. Below I show how ‘research’ by Prof. Aldred was constructed and re-spun by cycling journalist @Peterwalker99. Data from 290 self-selected respondents of 200,000 was said to make a case for Mini-Hollands! 1/8 https://t.co/8TadqyEl41 | 43 |
1640082059908587520 | @PippaCrerar @peterwalker99 That’s nonsense. Boris will always be around and will be stronger than ever after this obvious 🦘 court stitch up. The Sue Gray and Starmer corruption will be exposed and the world will see the truth! | 11 |
1639936715740553218 | Prof. @rachelaldred’s Mini-Holland ‘research’ started with a random leaflet drop to more than 100k households inviting participation. Despite a tiny response rate journalist @PeterWalker99 felt able to report London Cycling Czar declare Mini-Hollands prove their worth! 2/8 https://t.co/qImuWXDdVl | 10 |
1640734195453423616 | A regular reminder that there is far more subsidy for wealthy people driving than there ever will be for people on low incomes walking, cycling and using public transport @theJeremyVine @peterwalker99 @carlafrancome @Ed_Miliband @citycyclists @Chris_Boardman https://t.co/Ur6wI4Mi0z | 9 |
1639239745329823744 | @PippaCrerar @snevinoj @peterwalker99 Face it. The #WeakManSunak is a sham. Unelected and scared to hold a #GeneralElection. Colluded with Johnson in excess deaths during Covid. Stood alongside Johnson and said nothing about all the Corruption, Foreign Funding and Buying seats in the Lords. Complicit in all of it... https://t.co/3vZT3EKuUO | 9 |
1639951907736174599 | @VincentStops @peterwalker99 Hi @VincentStops @peterwalker99 has yet to come back to me on his article following Aldred’s ‘boundary roads’ study which he falsely stated that only a ‘handful’ of LTNs had been removed contrary to the facts. He has seen it but clearly does not care whether his copy is accurate.… https://t.co/JHVrbJ01uY | 8 |
1639936754751774721 | The @Peterwalker99 piece came down to relying on a selective survey of only 290 unrepresentative respondents . Even then there was no statistical significance for the claims made about additional minutes cycling. So small it could have simply been chance! But there is more! 7/8 https://t.co/i3ofIDMYxV | 8 |

1639334579507982337 | @PippaCrerar @peterwalker99 Incredible, truly incredible it’s taken this long. Forget politics and the politician, if it has taken the masses this long to lose support of the man as morally corrupt as him then they’re all doomed. Everyone gets caught up in the politics. The man’s trash. | 57 |

1640685029708767232 | @peterwalker99 It shows that the only real way of stopping bad drivers is to physically prevent them. Appealing to people's better nature will only get you so far. | 51 |
1640690636939575301 | @apoliticaleye @peterwalker99 But yet the people saying they'll implement these things keep winning local elections. Funny that, maybe you aren't the majority you think you are. | 48 |
1639335763207651345 | @PippaCrerar @peterwalker99 My only criticism Pippa. WHY ON EARTH do people keep quoting ReesMogg? Hes been totally discredited. He's so out of touch in his cloud riddled tower that absolutely anything coming out of his pompous, twisted mouth can immediately be discarded as utter nonsense. | 43 |
