Martin Lewis is right freezing the student loan threshold is a moral failure. Graduates face a £24,500 stealth tax, while the Sovereign Grant soars 53% (£132.1m). Kate and William inherit billions tax-free while young people struggle with soaring rent and food prices. #Newsnight

Mark Hehir was a bus driver in London who chased down a man who stole a passenger's necklace.     He’s a hero. But guess what? The bus company @metroline sacked him. 
They said the thief was a “customer”. Inexplicably a tribunal upheld their decision. It’s no wonder we live in a country that increasingly feels lawless. One where decent people feel the system is stacked against them. Metroline should reinstate Mark and apologise for their disgraceful conduct.

Driving test booking can be one of the first interactions that an imminent new voter has with the government. It really shouldn’t be such a negative experience and impact.

Surely there must be a law against @metro_bank withholding all your money especially at Christmas.

@KirstieMAllsopp What are you saying? Some people put in more than they take out, therefore some must put in more than they take out!

It’s very, very simple. Some people put in more than they take out, therefore some must take out less than they put in.

Trump said on Truth Social: "Our great West Point... has smartly cancelled the Award Ceremony for actor Tom Hanks. Important move!" He also urged the Oscars to ban "woke" recipients. Presidents often weigh in on cultural events to signal values or engage supporters, especially if they see it as part of broader ideological debates.

Trump has praised the cancellation of an award for Tom Hanks by the West Point Association of Graduates and urged the Oscars to follow suit in banning “woke” recipients. Raise your hand if you stand with Tom Hanks

Why do @primevideouk keep showing trailers of handmaids tale season 6 when they know I’m only on season 3. They’re spoiling it for me.

Apple support says says they used to provide a 20W adaptor but also says it has 28.6 W·h battery, whatever that means.

What power adaptor do I need for Apple IPad 10.9"? Apple accessories site offers both 20W and 30W. Amazon says 20W. I bought a 20W one and it doesnt give enough charge. I've tried 96W and it works.

@synapticity I agree. So far it seems to be people talking mainly about twitter or Trump but maybe that'll calm down. A lot of celebrities and brands complaining about abuse that they get on Twitter but I haven't had that so far.

@samjgarforth I get the feeling that BS is just going to be heaving with smug self-righteousness and 'bitter-ex' vibes. I'd rather that different opinions were all shared on the same platform and people leaned into other views with the right level of discomfort and openness to learn from it
