We see Edinburgh at work and we see it sleeping. We built the Workers’ Observatory to watch the city together, to collectively challenge conditions in self-employed and gig work, and to take control of our labour. </p> <p>“</p> <p><a href="https://workersobservatory.org" rel="nofollow">https://workersobservatory.org</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20855#post-372048 Fri, 01 Dec 2023 12:03:09 +0000 chdot 372048@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="https://www.nationalworld.com/money/deliveroo-now-provides-everything-from-beauty-products-to-toys-4429348" rel="nofollow">https://www.nationalworld.com/money/deliveroo-now-provides-everything-from-beauty-products-to-toys-4429348</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20855#post-371953 Mon, 27 Nov 2023 15:50:55 +0000 LaidBack 371953@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Right. Sometimes hard to tell the two apart with some of the big tyred e-bikes couriers are on!<br /> Think media like the multicultural friendly Dublin vibe as must have been a shock to have had such a riot occur afterwards. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20855#post-371949 Mon, 27 Nov 2023 10:05:23 +0000 DuddingstonDomestique 371949@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The Brazilian gentleman who intervened outside Coláiste Mhuire in Dublin was a moped delivery driver and not a cyclist.<br /> He was not the only to intervene either. </p> <p>It's a bit tedious that references to Irish news stories invariably invoke some reference to Guiness/alcohol no matter how tangential. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20855#post-371943 Sun, 26 Nov 2023 17:53:04 +0000 LaidBack 371943@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><blockquote>Five people were injured in Parnell Street in Dublin following an attack outside a school on Thursday in the north inner city centre.</p> <p>A girl, five, and a teacher remain in critical condition in hospital after they were stabbed during the incident.</p> <p><strong>Caio Benicio, a delivery cyclist, was working in the city when he saw the incident unfolding and intervened to restrain the attacker before getting him to drop the knife.</strong></p> <p>A fundraiser was then started to “buy Caio Benicio a pint” with an initial target of €200 000 although the total donated currently sits at more than €300 000.</p> <p>Writing on Twitter, one user said it was enough for "53k pints of Guinness".</blockquote></p> <p>Good news story from National. A Brazillian Deliveroo rider used to risks. Probably doesn't like Guinness. :-) ? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=20855#post-358589 Sat, 19 Feb 2022 13:32:52 +0000 chdot 358589@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>“</p> <p>Aldi ends Deliveroo deliveries as customers return to stores </p> <p>“</p> <p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/jan/20/aldi-ends-deliveroo-deliveries-online-groceries-peak" rel="nofollow">https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/jan/20/aldi-ends-deliveroo-deliveries-online-groceries-peak</a> </p>
