Can someone please add @bt_uk @BTGroup to the list of businesses who've failed customers during the lockdown. Callous behaviour here.

Dozens of new mini police stations are to open across Cheshire. Most will be in community centres, village halls and libraries - with some in churches or scout huts. Local community support officers will start and end their shifts there - and hold local surgeries.
