@BBC_Cumbria But curiously, despite you paying for the service, if they miss a collection then they won’t come back. Or offer a refund! Imagine if Amazon said we’re not going to deliver and not refund you !! Interesting breach of contract.

Seems entirely reasonable that people who have come to the UK should be expected to repay some of the money spent on them, turns it from a grant by the taxpayer to a loan. But the interesting numbers in the article are how few are ‘officially’ working!! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cddl…

So, this is old news from last year. But well worth re-reading in the context of recent weeks and perhaps also today’s firing of the US army chief. Pentagon fires intelligence agency chief after Iran attack assessment bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c2dj…

The man with 9 (or 10) children who pretends to care about global warming: what utter hypocrisy!! @BBCNews @Conservatives bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c989…

The world is going crazy if we want to build a power station big enough to run #Heathrow for an event that occurs once in 50 years. Maybe we should use that £billion to invest more carefully in the national energy infrastructure! bbc.co.uk/news/videos/ckg8ep…

@BBCNews I think to call these non-professional astronauts is fundamentally wrong and reflects a bias in your views. They are highly professional and highly qualified private sector astronauts! @SpaceX @elonmusk : Congratulations!!! bbc.co.uk/news/live/crkmgvzl…

‘Dangerously liberal extremist’. Whatever your views, that’s a truly weird oxymoron!! Is the opposite a ‘safely totalitarian fascist’ ??? Maybe those are the choices facing the #USA in the next election!! bbc.co.uk/news/live/c9r3rdkr…

'Police car used to stop cow due to safety concern'. Difficult decision??? What a load of manure!! It’s just a calf, hardly a ‘threat to life’ of our brave boys in blue!! Interesting to see that police brutality covers more than just humans. bbc.com/news/articles/cd11p1…

@BBCNews ‘Millions of litres’. Bowness isn’t very big, let’s assume 2 flushes per person over 10 hours. That’s about 10 litres, population of Bowness 2293, including visitors say 10000. That’s 100,000 litres. Where’s the rest from?? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cv26…

‘Women or pregnant people’ I’m a bit confused by the biology behind this statement! Only a biological female can get pregnant……. bbc.com/news/articles/c2vwjx…

Homelessness: 'I was raped while sleeping under a pier in Blackpool'. Sounds terrible, but: can’t be evicted like that, should have been on UC if she couldn’t work and if she’s had an mi & cva where was the social service input!? @BBCNews bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67750180

US House votes to expel George Santos from Congress. You have to ask how bad you need to be for the Republicans to vote against someone! He still got 114 votes!!?? American politics has become truly scary for those of us looking in from abroad. Ethics?? bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-cana…
