#CustomerService I would rather get no response than an AI generated email re a delivery query. It's pointless and only serves as a tick box exercise, so companies can reduce staff, increase profits and further advance the utter disdain of the customer whose payment has already left the bank.

Really missing #MasterchefTheProfessionals on the run up to the holidays this year. I know. Very first world problems. But I had to miss the #RugbyUnion games, too (because I believe they should be free to watch)! Sigh.

Anyone watching the heartrending, revelatory docudrama Prisoner 951 should also listen to this brilliant BBC podcast series — a thorough treatment of the shameful UK arms deal history leading up to Nazanin’s abduction www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/serie... #NazaninZaghariRatcliffe #Nazanin #Prisoner951

📺Ahead of #Prisoner951, we asked Richard Ratcliffe what a legal right to consular assistance could have meant for him and Nazanin. Despite Labour's promises, the UK still has no legal right requiring the government to help its nationals facing human rights abuses abroad.

Watching the BBC Disclosure: “Are Refugees Welcome Here” and feeling sickened. The vox pops and interviews of fascist right-wing thugs masquerading as “activists” who are “protecting women and girls” is deeply concerning. The chat of “remigration” is terrifying. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.

Recent research showed that a huge proportion (87%) of Brits rely on hanging wet clothes inside their homes – and they’re unknowingly causing serious issues. A study by the University of Manchester found that drying a wet load of washing indoors can release two litres of water into your home.

It’s worth reminding ourselves that there is a scientific consensus around the climate science. Scientists are as certain of the blanket of human caused emissions wrapped around the earth as they are that gravity is real or that the earth is round. #FactsMatter

#Sudan: Families fleeing #ElFasher are arriving in #Tawila exhausted, with many children facing severe malnutrition and dehydration. Displacement is rising and medical needs are overwhelming. Josephine Goodyer, MSF Pediatrician who worked in Tawila from July to August, updates:

While recording Rhell's demo update i realised i could create this really fun combo of magic. if you transform into a snowball and also make your snowball magnetic you get to make this mess #gamedev #lowpoly #indiegame

Quality Street is a sign of everything in British Supermarkets like Tesco. Over the years you get less and less, while paying more and more.

Where is Masterchef the Professionals?! Bad enough not to be able to watch the rugby union internationals unless I pay Sky without the only other telly event I look forward to not appearing at all. #mastercheftheprofessionals #verysmallproblems

Yes! @thewelshrugbyunion.bsky.social Take that, E. Jones! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

All nations committed under the Paris Agreement to limit global warming to 1.5 degC for good reason. Instead many governments are beholden to the fossil fuel lobby and even subsidize fossil fuel use with your money. We’re now at 1.4 degC & emissions are rising not falling. unfccc.int/process-and-...

Great that the #BBC is broadcasting Wales v Japan rugby union autumn internationals, but why have no English language commentary? It's already in Welsh on S4C. 😒

Poverty is a policy decision. Concentrated wealth is a policy decision. Inequality is a policy decision. Remember this.

A national campaign calling for higher taxes on Britain’s wealthiest individuals arrived in Newcastle this week, with the Patriotic Millionaires UK bus pulling up on Market Street in steady rain emblazoned with the message: “Tax us, the super-rich.” 👏👏👏

Racism is endemic in the UK. We must know their place of birth and if motivated by terrorism. These are also the headlines on BBC News. Awful things are perpetuated by awful people no matter where they were born. A knife-weilding assailant causes terror whether it's in the name of a cause or not.

Reading Rory Stewart's 'Politics On the Edge' and really feel this (or at least excerpts) should be part of the National Curriculum so that everyone can understand the limitations and dangers of our form of government. Trying not to lose all hope, now. #ukgovernment #rorystewart #ukdemocracy

How we do Halloween is adding to the planet’s mounting graveyard of waste

Margaret Thatcher said "Socialism is great until you run out of other people's money." Then sold everything of yours because she was running out of money. The hypocrisy is mind blowing.

"Privatisation is a failed experiment which takes all our money and pays it out to shareholders." Do we pay enough tax for good Public Services? Can you see the problem? They are not Public, so they will never be good no matter how much you spend.

In Scotland two families own more wealth than 1.3 million people. We're one of the wealthiest countries in history, but that wealth is concentrated in the hands of a tiny few. That's why a wealth tax on the super-rich is supported by an overwhelming majority of Scots.

Liz Truss should have gone to prison, instead she got £115,000 a year for the rest of her life, tax free, for failing at being PM for 49 days. And she gets to go on Right Wing troll rags and give her 'expert advice'. Why? Should be everyones question.

Antarctica may have passed a climate tipping point of no return, scientists are warning, with mounting evidence that a sudden slump in sea ice formation since 2016 is linked to human-induced ocean warming.

Funders and directors of climate change denial groups have given over £7 million to Badenoch's Conservatives. Climate change is already here, bringing heatwaves, droughts, floods and wildfires to Scotland. This betrays communities across the country today, as well as every future generation.
