Dowden reveals Lee Anderson would have kept his job if he had apologised..
BBC Politics@BBCPolitics
“I don’t believe Lee Anderson said those remarks intending to be Islamophobic” Deputy PM Oliver Dowden says it was right to suspend the former Conservative deputy chair from the party because an apology “wasn’t forthcoming” #BBCLauraK bbc.in/3I9V7zU

Generally stopped using Twitter since all the X nonsense in favour of LinkedIn and Reels from my daily scrolling fix. Still lots of interesting stuff here though that I don’t see elsewhere. Maybe should pick it back up more.

@thomasforth Not just about selling the data but about using it too for everything from tailoring ranges for a particular store to improving availability and personalised marketing.
English
@thomasforth A fair bit of money comes from selling the data (look at Dunnhumby profits) but putting regular offers behind the loyalty “wall” has also increased participation (from an already high level, think mid 80s%) and therefore also increases the quality of the data.
English
Are they making much money from selling the data? I'd understood, and am still told, that they're not really. But then my contacts in the industry are at the West Yorkshire supermarkets (Asda, Morrisons) which aren't really doing loyalty cards. So maybe I'm out of touch.

Looks like a HoloLens with an external battery pack and a different OS. Will be interesting to see what field of view is like as having spent a bit of time using HoloLens that was its biggest limitation. #visionpro

This is classic Amazon, building an impressive
capability, opening it up as a service for others to use. Look forward to seeing new hardware, I'm sure there will be some good automated grocery shopping related stuff. #amazon #hardware #sidewalk #iot theverge.com/2023/3/28/2365…

I went to the Monument one at lunchtime today which has the new hybrid setup and it actually had quite a few customers in (to my surprise). Most people paying by card. Much bigger and a lot more stock than the ones I saw in New York in Jan too.

As predicted, the fanfare relaunch of Amazon Fresh sans entry barriers in Islington has rapidly reverted to me being the only customer again. Everything changes, but nothing changes!

Great to visit Auchan last week in Lille and talk about some of the big things we're working on together. Some interesting things on their campus too.

Sad news, used this since I bought my first digital camera, about 20 years ago. @ajassy @dpreview digitalcameraworld.com/news/dpreview-…

Thanks for capturing it Glynn, it was good fun and hopefully the audience took away a couple of things they can apply at their companies.

Great session #RWL23 on AI. Yes, I know it’s yet more on AI, but this was genuinely interesting content from @prw25 and John Mildinhall of @marksandspencer along with Rob Hughes @GoGreyOrange.
English
Really great to hear from Roisin Currie and Seb James this morning at #RWL2023. Both had a few interesting nuggets and a lot of reminders to get out into shops!

@hwallop @CadburyUK Definitely a bit disappointing, I tried it too. Presumably not possible/practical to coat everything with a really thin layer of chocolate?
English
To give credit to @CadburyUK, I think most would agree the new Fruitier & Nuttier is healthier than standard Fruit & Nut.
It’s same calories. But lower sat fat (5.4g vs 15g), lower sugar (34g vs 53.5g), and more fibre (7.9g vs 2.7g).
Tho’ that’s because it’s not much chocolate!
English
🧐🍫Cadbury is launching 'Fruitier and nuttier' – a trail mix which is lower-sugar, lower-fat version of Fruit & Nut.
A good idea to appeal to increasingly health-conscience consumers? Or sacrilege?

Bag on the end of a string (vast over simplification) seems to be the winning formula for drone delivery now. @Wing @MannaAero @zipline now all talking more about scaling and efficient loading too. Additions to increase control of bag from Zipine too: twitter.com/ryanzip/status…
Ryan Oksenhorn@ryanzip
1/ Today, Zipline unveiled our next generation delivery drone system, designed to provide the best home delivery service the planet has ever seen. It's so out-there that you probably won't believe your eyes... 🧵

Interesting move from Tesco, hard to predict how this one will pan out but not sure the customer will win.
The Grocer@TheGrocer
Tesco has been accused by suppliers of an “outrageous” money grab, after announcing it plans to introduce new Amazon-style “fulfilment fees” for its online and Booker wholesale operations thegrocer.co.uk/tesco/tesco-th…

I've written a bit about store merchandising processes in my time, mostly about using tech to automate it.
Not once mentioned getting your fans to do it for you but judging by the response this was pretty effective! Discussions about Shelf Ready Packaging (SRP) in comments too.
MrBeast@MrBeast
I need your help! Next time you see Feastables in Walmart (and soon to be new retailers) if you could clean up the presentation and make it look better that’d make me very happy 🥺 I’m building a team to do this routinely, just need help in the short term ❤️

This (very nice) visualisation set about film success is not only interesting by itself but also gives a nice demonstration of why the headline metric isn't always the best one for determining success of your product. informationisbeautiful.net/visualizations… #metrics #productmanagement
