Birds can land on cables with no bother, because there is no way for the charge to go to ground through them.
Only if they touch only one cable. If the touch two cables (which is possible for a big bird like a swan) there exists a potential difference and hence current will flow. The lines are grouped in three for three phase electrics.

park tools are good for their bike specific tools but over priced for generic tools.
Buy a set of good spanners and allen keys, the red chain tool from hubjub and the lock ring tool, a cheap pedal spanner, a hammer and a big spanner, this should do you for most jobs to start off with. By freewheel tools as needed, you can make a chain whip out of an old chain + a piece of scrap metal, chain whips are over priced.

so when are the bbc going to make the right programme. answer = never.
cos they daren't = mob (people who motor) rule.
i still think the programme was biased. and that assertion is supported by them asking a person who supports motoring commentating on how and where people should cycle.
(i acknowledge there may have been some marginal benefit to the programme in publicising that there is cycle training available).
but i do not want or need cycle training or cycling this or that. i just want 20 mph.
then everybody is safer including those who chose to motor.
(i did not hear the motoring guy advocate 20 mph).
that is why the program was biased. and that is why i think the program was poor and the approach was out bloody rageous.
it will be interesting to see whether i get a reply from the bbc.
Again a different program to the one that was advertised. This was a program about cycle poisoning and cycle training, could have done with a CTC or whatever member but would still have needed the IAM guy to give a backup from a motoring organisation which to many other road users is needed, and it's these people you are trying to talk to.

unless this effect is compensated by immigration entirely?
Yes it is. Hence why the population is still rising in the UK, not sure about the rest of Europe. I known parts of Eastern Europe have a falling population e.g Latvia but I expect the UK tobe inline with Western Eourope or visa versa depending on which way you look at it.
I think the comment you are quoting is refereeing to London and surrounding area.
