@samuelsedgman thanks for taking the time to chat to my little guy the other evening at Waterstones. Shy in the moment… he hasn’t stopped talking about meeting ‘the author!’. Agatha Christie on pause to prioritise your book ;-) thanks for being a good sport, you have a new fan.

@MayorofLondon Not a practical suggestion. What about council tax, parking and ULEZ? You have the power on those, right? As to create more affordable housing. Mirror time…

£1000. That’s not the average cost of a flat per month. It’s the average cost of a ROOM in almost one third of London postcodes. Renters shouldn’t have put up with this. I call on the Govt: give me the power to freeze London rents. standard.co.uk/homesandproper…

Someone in Islington has lost their marbles. 13.05 for an hour of street parking.

@GrundonRecycle thanks by now already in touch with your insurance department

@peramarco Hello, thank you for bringing this to our attention. Please email info@grundon.com with full details of when/where this happened and we will pass you through to the relevant department.

@GrundonRecycle one of your trucks literally drove into our house and created some serious damage

@MayorofLondon What is this tweet for? What are YOU going to do about it rather than tweeting at the government? In the meantime you could lower your taxes and get the streets safe. Let us known what progress YOU make.

This is how much food costs have surged in a year: 🍝 Pasta: 60% 🍞 Bread: 38% 🥕 Frozen veg: 32% 🥔 Potatoes: 13% 🥣 Cereal: 11% Families simply can’t go on like this. The Government must offer more support to struggling families in London and around the UK.

@TheEconomist really? Liz dressed as a Roman? They lasted a little longer…

@RachelARich today I got hit twice by a version of the HMRC scam… automated message threatening legal action for not paying tax with option to speak to an agent to resolve… hmrc calling from a mobile number being giveaway #1…

there should be a button / feature on every mobile phone to immediately report a number or call as a scam - things are getting silly and telcos need to more to crack down on these folks.

The cow boys stick to their guns whilst these freaks motivate one another for and via the media attention they get. Heartbreak. Repeat.

Respect to Lewis Hamilton, Mo Salah and JK Rowling for featuring high on the Sunday Times Giving List! fundraising.co.uk/2022/05/20/202…

The upcoming Online Safety Bill gives the Culture Secretary enormous powers. The @CommonsDCMS Committee, free speech charities, @Ofcom, @NSPCC and others all believe these powers are excessive. Have a listen to the bizarre answer #NadineDorries gave when I raised their concerns.

The bar is officially on the floor.

Bing Bong! a bit of sarcasm to remind us of reality whilst bojo’s busy using his goofiness and smart social media experts to distract from the real issues: “At Johnson’s Supermarket we’ve got great deals on beer and party food”. thetimes.co.uk/article/at-joh…

@MayorofLondon All for the environment. The problem with ulez is the definiton of ultra low emissions is a little bit bollo*ks. You can drive a 6 litre twin turbo and be ulez compliant.

With London’s air pollution permanently stunting the lungs of our children, we have no time to waste. Expanding ULEZ will significantly reduce the damaging consequences of toxic vehicle emissions and give children a better chance of growing into healthy adults.

Amen !

#eurovison is over, goodbye. Twitter and sarcasm hibernated for another year. Click.
