Bristol Council preventing children from getting affordable bikes

[Boopop]

Has anyone seen this news story? It boggles my mind. In other news they apparently agreed in a council meeting yesterday that climate change is an emergency and that they want to be carbon neutral by 2030. Yet they're doing this.

And you'd think a Green Party mayor would be better educated on the subject.

I'm often left puzzled by some of the BCC decisions that I read about, especially when there is clearly a nice easy helpful solution that could help everyone out instead, as well as doing their 'kind public image' a good turn too at the same time. This is disappointing to say the least.
