Just a tiny number of the things we owned and the recent Tories sold off
If I went back to 1980 and gave you the full list you’d feel sick about it
None of us gained a thing except the super rich
Inequality through the roof.

One week later and still no acknowledgement or apology from the @MayorofLondon or @AXS_UK
Absolute chaos trying to queue - with tickets - for Waterloo Bridge #London fireworks. Queued for hours and eventually became dangerously overcrowded and couldn't get on. What the hell went wrong?! @MayorofLondon @metpoliceuk

As we are on the verge of the abyss in the Middle East, I have two humanitarian appeals:
To Hamas, the hostages must be immediately released without conditions.
To Israel, rapid & unimpeded access for humanitarian aid must be granted for the sake of the civilians in Gaza.
Currently stuck in Belgium after the #airtrafficcontrol debarcle. Have a hotel and a new flight but had literally zero communications from @British_Airways. Only knew what to do after asking around at the airport.
Had the worst experience with @ClickMechanic who refuse to meaningfully engage with me. Recommend keeping well away from these cowboys.

Protest is a human right.
Our right to protest is protected by the Human Rights Act.
Our right to protest is protected by international law.
Don’t let anyone tell you different

I just want to make a few things clear:
The Holocaust happened.
Hitler was a demonic figure.
And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides.
Silence is complicity.

Use of the phrase "it didn't do me any harm" is one of the most persistent symptoms of long term harm

Yesterday, an official drought was declared in London.
Dry ground has a twofold risk to Londoners:
1. Highly flammable = increase in wildfires
2. Cannot absorb water = potential for flooding
This is a direct result of the climate crisis. We must do all we can to fight it.
In this experiment Dr Rob Thompson of @UniRdg_Met shows just how long it takes water to soak into parched ground, illustrating why heavy rainfall after a #drought can be dangerous and might lead to flashfloods.

Amex refunded me. Never heard back from @Myprotein. Their only response was to delete my account, which is completely crazy. #protein #gym
Latest from @Myprotein is that no one has looked into this and they can't call me because their phone lines are down. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. #gym #protein

Four weeks ago I told @Myprotein that evri had lost my order. Since then I've had repeated assurances someone would look into it, but no-one has ever got in touch. The icing on the cake? They've now deleted my account! Speechless. #Protein #gym #fitness

For weeks now I've been saying the same thing over and over again to @Myprotein about a missing delivery. Every time they say someone will be in touch. No one ever gets in touch. Have now escalated to my credit card company.

I am truly blessed to have a Dad who nurtured and supported a little boy that wanted to be The Little Mermaid. He is the most patient man (and stagehand) and I’m so very grateful he puts up with me. Happy Father’s Day @JonDMaggio #HeDoesntListenToAWordISay #BigJump
