Another rammed full trip on the 10:40 Banbury to Marylebone @chilternrailway @CustomersofCR
So hot a woman fainted right next to me. Not the first time this has happened either
How long till you proved a decent service on a Saturday?

Strictly Come Dancing is refusing to reinstate the full live band following social-distancing measures put in place during Covid restrictions 🧵👇

ALT In the middle, black text with a yellow highlight says: "Keep Strictly Live!" Below, black text with white highlight says: "Do you agree? Share this message #KeepStrictlyLive." In the bottom left corner sits the union logo made up of a squiggle and text that says "M U Musicians' Union". The background is dark blue with semi-transparent gold, grey and dark blue stars.

When the Tree teaser tracks were out I mentioned I was hoping for an extended version of Solitude, and instead we have the beauty of Stasis
Tree is daily listening on the train into town, with a jump to Solitude after Stasis, and then back and forth

If you think this government are to blame for the failures in the NHS, please retweet this. They are pointing the finger at hard-working NHS staff and we need to send Rishi Sunak a message!🚨

Most people are aware of the main reason Nightingales were a calamity - there were no people to staff them - , but Nightingale hospitals were bizarre for other reasons
Well, bizarre when you assume the govt is acting in the interests of the public’s health…

Don't let people forget. The French government has repeatedly offered to build a refugee processing centre for the UK in France, they have offered to help fund it and to allow British immigration staff to work there.
It would instantly solve the "boats" problem
The UK refused.

You probably won’t read in the papers today about the consultant surgeon who padlocked the operating theatres shut when there was no PPE, and safeguarded lives by refusing to operate until PPE was found.
You won’t find out about the consultant who put her hand up and fought…

I once had a morning radio show on GLR. I would do 6 till 9am then hand over to Chris Morris.
My show was pretty good. His was pretty goodier. This will never happen again.
