On some things the UK is progressive, on other issues, like sustainable transport, they see it as antisocial behaviour.

Ebikes, bicycles, scooters, skateboards, longboards, eboards, motorcycles, skates, unicycles: Whatever floats your goat, this is all things micromobility!
"Transportation using lightweight vehicles such as bicycles or scooters, especially electric ones that may be borrowed as part of a self-service rental program in which people rent vehicles for short-term use within a town or city.
micromobility is seen as a potential solution to moving people more efficiently around cities"

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Thinking about this some more: is this legit? I'm not from the UK, and have only heard of Thames Valley Police from watching Endeavour on PBS. Do the police just email entire neighborhoods when they need leads?
Yeah it’s legit, I signed up for local police information when I first moved here. They post missing persons and details of crimes in the area, ask for DashCam, CCTV, doorbell cams etc.
Although unless they can solve a crime in minutes that really don’t seem interested. Unless it’s someone trying to get to work on an e-bike apparently.
Dear Resident,
The Neighbourhood Team is seeking your help for an important matter.
We are trying to find out if the department sends out email blasts when they need information from the residents. Specifically, do the police just email entire neighborhoods when they need leads?
If you have any information on this, it would be extremely helpful in understanding our current communication practices.
As a team, we value your input and recognize the importance of effective communication with our community members.
If you have any information, please contact the Neighbourhood Team by replying to this alert. Any information you provide will be in the strictest confidence.
