@elliereeves@CPSUK Where u getting this money from as you could invest it into the court system in order to speed up the trials so they aint waiting 3+ years for 'speedy' justice
Today, I have announced £5 million of funding for the @CPSUK to support victims of domestic abuse in the Crown Court.
Victims will be offered a pre trial meeting with the prosecution. This will provide them with better support and ensure their voice is heard.
@STN_Airport Remember when we could drop off for free for 15 minutes....can we go back to those days as this is just pure greed unless you plan on investing this money into the surrounding communities.
From 00:01 on 19 March 2026, charges for the Express Set Down area at London Stansted Airport have changed:
£10 for stays up to 15 minutes
£28 for stays over 15 minutes
The Express Set Down area is barrier-free, with payment available online, by phone, or automatically via an AutoPay account.
Free drop-off remains available in the Mid Stay Car Park.
Pre-booked parking options offer the best value for customers planning ahead.

@J_Tanswell@TheAthleticFC Drop all the firework crap before every game, get rid of many (if not most) of the GA+ tickets and give the seats back to gen joe supporter/fan
Unai Emery and senior figures have tasked #AVFC to look at ways to improve the atmosphere at Villa Park. Fan groups are engaging, with Villa open to suggestions. So what are the reasons behind the perceived decline in atmosphere?

You board the plane and find a man sitting in your window seat, 4A.
You: "Excuse me, I think you're in my seat."
Him: "Yeah, my wife is in 4B. Just take my seat back in row 32. Middle seat. It’s the same plane, doesn't matter."
You: "No, I paid extra for 4A. Please move."
Him (loudly): "Are you serious? You’re really going to separate a couple on their anniversary? Have some heart!"
Passengers start looking. You feel the heat rising in your cheeks. The pressure to just be 'nice' and dissolve into the floor is overwhelming.
You: "I'm not moving."
Him: "Everyone is staring at you being selfish! It's just a seat!"
You: "If it's 'just a seat,' then you go sit in row 32. Your poor planning is not my emergency. Move."
The Aftermath:
The flight attendant walks over. He grunts, grabs his bag, and walks back to row 32. The wife apologizes quietly. You put your headphones on and sleep for 4 hours. The plane didn't crash because you said 'No'.
The Insight:
Manipulators rely on social awkwardness to get what they want. They bank on you being too polite to make a scene. They weaponize the "public eye" to shame you into compliance.
But here is the truth: You aren't "difficult" for wanting what you paid for. You aren't "rude" for existing in the space you were assigned.
When you remove the shame, you remove their power.
I work in a boutique. A male customer wanted us to gift wrap a scarf and lingerie separately, with cards addressed to different women's names. Nothing new to us. But he'd parked a Tesla, so just before sealing up the boxes I switched the two cards. Serve him right.
Middle of the first half and an advert - this is stupid @ITV@ITVSport
If you dont do this for england football why do you feel the need to do it at the #6Nations
Your ruining the game.
@emmerdale please invest in some decent legal advisors as no solicitors can make a few calls and fast track plea and bail hearings. Honestly get better advisors to your script writers, its so annoying when you get simple legal matters SO WRONG
@its_meeruy4 Then stop saying we have all this free time and we wont try to fill it up doing your job as a parent and will go back to our happy childless lives.

DoorDash driver checks the app sees no tip and leaves this note with the food
“Lucky for you I didn’t bother the food… consider tipping your driver.”
Then the customer answers the door holding a cash tip.
